I like writing this blog.  I really, really like writing this blog.  Like every other person out there who updates their blog at erratic and unpredictable intervals however, I get sidetracked.  The only thing I ever really write about or comment on or form opinions about consistently is the world of video games. So, I’m going to start writing about them more on this blog.  There are a couple of simple reasons for this.

I like video games.  It started with King’s Quest, and reached a high point with Sonic the Hedgehog 2.

What do these games have in common? Awesomeness.

I’ve followed games for a long time, and things keep getting more and more interesting as technology gets better and writing gets more ambitious.

He doesn't talk much, but he's the protagonist of very well-written games.

Lots and lots of cool people are into games, and like making them.  Like this guy:

I am not a Nintendo fanboy.  I just like this picture.

Yes yes, three reasons is more than a couple.  I could have listed a huge amount but it’s in everyone’s best interests to keep this short.  So, seeing as there’s a greater chance that I will update the blog frequently if I do so, I am unofficially christening this space a “video game blog” type thing.  All that really means is that I’ll write about video games most of the time.  I reserve the right to complain about ludicrous movies and occasionally repost youtube clips of comedies from the late 90s and early 2000s.

See?
