2007 was a rough year for me because that was the first full year at the job I hated (and I still work there). I'm surprised I even lasted that first year. Family life was rough, too. Nothing really bad or dramatic, but deifinitely more stressful.
Like I said earlier, 2007 was the year I got an Xbox 360. There were enough games on it I wanted to play by then, with promise of more to come. Pac-Man: CE was the final straw that made me cave in. The 360 ended up being my favorite console of last generation, and I still play it today!
I named my Game of the Year in 2007 Super Mario Galaxy, but I really wanted to give it to Portal. But, it was part of the Orange Box, which I didn't want to pay full price for since the other two games on it I had no interest in. But once the game got down to 20 bucks in early 2008, I got it. I wish I would've gotten it earlier, as Portal and its sequel ended up being one of my favorite games of the last console generation. I REALLY like Portal games!
