Well, just because I’m doing most of my writing elsewhere doesn’t mean that I can’t occasionally post about the comings and goings of my gaming world!
- I took a trip to Gamestop yesterday and preordered a few more games, mainly, the collector’s edition of Elder Scrolls: Skyrim (which looks, absolutely amazing, btw), as well as Battlefield 3. Both were PC preorders, which is a first for me, as I’ve never preordered any PC games before in my life. I suppose it’s just a transition as I slowly move towards PC gaming more and more, and leaving the console gaming for the high end exclusives. This brings the running total of preorders to 4 this fall season, including a Collectors for Star Wars: The Old Republic, and the Epic Edition of Gears of War 3.
- Most people by now should have heard about Nintendo’s 3DS Ambassador Program (i.e., a major 3DS price drop so early in its life and the games announced that Nintendo will use to make it up to the early adopters). Personally, I knew what I was getting into when I picked up the thing, and while I’m surprised at the price drop happening so soon, that really is the fate of the early adopter. I’m actually pretty excited about the games though, so I’m looking forward to it.
- Most of the games I reviewed for Touch Arcade this week were not that good, although my most current one in the works, a game called Companions, looks to break that mold. Stay tuned in a few days as at TA as I get that one written!
- Oh yeah, Final Fantasy Tactics, on iOS. ‘nuff said.
Game on folks.
