It begins.

Hello, and welcome!

This is my new project, a blog dedicated to my experiences in video gaming. This is meant to be a repository for my impressions and reviews of various games. They are not meant to be definitive, however. They are merely one gamer's take on the incredibly large phenomenon of electronic entertainment. Whereas IGN and Gamespy attempt to give you a concise buying guide for games, breaking them down into categories such as graphics, sound, and music, I intend to focus more on the games in and of themselves, as well as deal with news about gaming companies and their approaches to gaming.

Gaming is a very subjective thing. The "console wars" are one example of this. As such, I'm not one to claim that my take on a game may be yours, I can only describe it to you and let you draw from my experience.

As for my background, I am (as of this post) a 23 year old male gamer who has grown up with various consoles and PC games over the years. I've never given any exclusive loyalty to any game company, but I do have my biases. I try not to get involved in that business.

There are a few features on this blog that I will implement once I figure out how to do so. A list of off-site links for places where I get my gaming news and entertainment is first. The second is a FAQ about me, my gaming tastes, and the blog. I will also be creating a seperate e-mail account for mail from this blog alone. I will also attempt to create a searchable database of my posts, and possibly a seperate archive for game reviews along the way.
