Dropping the ball

Hey everybody. It's me, the disappointment blogger. So I haven't been posting very frequently. Sorry about that. See, there's this bi-annual tradition that I have called finals week where I don't post very frequently.

I've realized lately two things:

1 - I don't have any time to play lengthy games at the moment. As a matter of fact, I think I might trade out my copy of Blue Dragon. There is nothing rewarding about playing that game. There's a lot of running and hitting "attack," but there's nothing about the story, the characters or the three discs that I care to explore any more.

2 - I don't have any handheld games that I particularly enjoy playing these days (on the bus and the like).

3 - I only really want to play Left 4 Dead and Peggle. Uh-oh.

So here's the plan: I'll make a list of games coming out this year that I'm legitimately looking forward to playing and post them here.

I'll be back to my hard-news-and-culture coverage later. Thanks for your patience.
