2014 In Games

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

How do you people manage to find the time to play this many games the fuck?! I think I played 3 games this year, all of them cheap short puzzlers/2d sidescrollers (Spacechem, Gunpoint and Super Time Force).

I guess I also technically played one of those newer Worms games but I don't count that because Worms is Worms pretty much, and I watched a friend play some Alien Isolation breifly but I can't really say much because it seems more like the kind of thing you need to play on your own, at night, in the dark, rather than in a group during the afternoon whilst you're all hungover.

I guess I just haven't been impressed enough with anything that's come out recently to occupy my time gaming, I think because a lot of stuff is now just for ps4/Xbone and I haven't upgraded (and in a circular way, I haven't done so because nothing on those systems has interested me anyway, go figure), and partly because most of my disposable income has been spent playing MTG.

Hopefully they'll be something more to peak my interest this year and/or I'll finally get a decent gaming rig so I can catch up on some older things I've wanted to try out. I may also finally cap out on my Magic expenditure/addiction.
