New Game

I always thought my first “post” would actually be the About page but I just can’t seem to write anything good. I think part of the problem is I’m not 100% sure just what this blog will contain so I decided to just start posting and see what happens.

Part of the reason this blog exists was too allow me to track what games I play, how often I play games, and how much money I have spent (will spend) on games. Part of me thinks this is a bad idea. Reminds me of the first time a video game displayed how long I had been playing (it was an RPG but I can’t forget the name, probably one from the Final Phantasy series). At first I thought it was cool but then I thought about how much of my life I’d spent playing when I could have been doing other things. Good thing I was young, dumb, and full of fun so I kept playing.

Aside from the time I’m also worried that summing up the amount of money spent will also depress me and possible lead physical harm (insert obvious joke about the wife finding the money list). On a more serious note I will likely wonder if I should have spent it on our house, on my family, or maybe donate it to charities. Makes you think why you and I are so lucky to have be able to play games while other people are barely surviving. This is getting depressing, lets get back on topic and save this discussion for another day.

I figure the next couple posts will detail the games I own and how much time and money I’ve invested into each individual one. I’ll probably also say if I liked the game or not but I think full reviews will saved for a later date. I gotta save some material for later.
