In case you weren't sent here by a great post by The Blaggernaut over at Everything Except Chickens here's the deal: I have been taken up a quest, sometimes called a New Year's Resolution. Every week I will write a post here and maybe mirror it someplace else. Not only will I write a post, but I will also comment on Everything Except Chickens. I think it's a great idea. Now you all must be wondering what I shall write about. For a few days after this idea was decided upon, I was too. I figured it out though, because I am pretty smart.
It turns out that I'm pretty bad at video games even though I play them a fair amount. After sitting in the dark all day, I usually come home and play games. Once I leave work, I'm done, so I don't feel guilty about playing them. I have fun, even though I am bad, so it works out.
What sort of games am I the worst at? Fighting and strategy. What are my favorite types? Fighting and strategy. I don't play those genres exclusively, but a fair amount. This blog will be a chronicle of what games I'm playing and how I am progressing in them. Since there will be a lot of discussion about fighting games, I will also write about how I'm practicing, my mains and things like that. Since I am not in my desert abode and that is the location of my Playstation 3, I am unable to make a post of much substance tonight.

1 - set your Facebook to import your posts.
2 - My worst type of videogame is the type that requires you to know a lot about it or involves micromanaging. Like Starcraft (even though I played it for a few hours diligently). What kind of strategy games do you play?
I was thinking about getting back into Guild Wars for a while... but MMOs are lame unless you play PVP. Which I also suck at...
I like turn based games. I plan on having a post about Civilization 4 sometime. It will be a tale of poor decisions and famine. I would like to get into more hardcore wargames. Things that might be on the tactical rather than the strategy level. I don't know anything about these though. Oh, and naval action. Boats are cool.
I think I will probably be waiting for Guild Wars 2 before playing it again. I agree that PvP is very important for GW, but I also fail at it. I used to play some Random Arena and harass people in Fort Aspenwood, but it made me too nervous.
