Happy New Year. 

Yes, yes the Pandas. 

LOL. 

Hey Bilby!

LOL, It's a Dell alrighty.

Hey Rodney. Glad you are still kicking, Had a quiet Christmas but for the first time in 3 years I was able to afford gifts for the whole family and my daughter was in town so it was good.

Happy new year to you too. 

Having no current Gen systems other than my New 3DS and PS TV I don't know much about the home consoles and their games except from reading about them.

I must say though that the Wii U is still the only one I'd find myself buying many games for at the moment. I was going to buy one on Boxing Day but we'd already blown enough money on Christmas so it has once again been pushed off.

Yesterday as I sat playing Persona 4 Golden on my PS TV I started to wonder why I was playing a game I've already finished on the PS2 over again instead of playing something new. 

The day before I started Final Fantasy VII for the umpteenth time and I played some Silent Hill 2 over the holidays as well but nothing new.

My last attempts at getting into anything recent were Shadow of Mordor and The Evil Within (PS3) both of which I gave up on early realizing that I'd wasted a bunch of money on games I will never finish.

I think for the next while I'll try to catch up on all the indie games I have yet to play/finish.

A Wii U may be still in my future and a PS4 if anything I care about gets released exclusively for it.

If I ever get an Xbox One it will be used maybe even from a yard sale with a used copy of Rare Replay.  Nothing else interests me but I'm sure that's because Microsoft knows that their demographic skews towards the younger end of the teenage scale. It is they who make up the lion's share of the "glut of CoD gamers" Nick mentions in his post.

That brought back some memories. I last played D&D about 28 years ago. I was never any good at it, spending most of my time drinking and cracking wise until I got killed.

Christmas was a quiet affair. My daughter came from Guelph and we had roast beast. I've gone through the best part of a bottle of bourbon and many beers.  

I want Trails of Cold Steel. I don't think I want to go digital though.

No problem Nick. It's yours if no one speaks up in the next two day.

I still have both of these to give away.
