A Man Needs a List

And here’s mine:

That is the list of games i've put down to rent. There’s something therapeutic about going through a database of games and ticking off the ones you want. I can’t put my finger on it; maybe it’s reassurance, knowing what’s to come. I do lists quite often, although usually it’s looking at upcoming releases and figuring out which ones to buy and coming to the realisation that from September onwards will be very expensive.

 Ok so there are 30+ titles on that list and at 2 games a month it’ll take 15months minimum to work my way through them. Undoubtedly in a few weeks I’ll rearrange the list and half of them will be removed, replaced with newer (and thus better) games.

 Speaking of upcoming games thank you to Game Central (the Teletext reviewers) for being brave enough to give 4/10 to Heavy Rain, which is released later this week. It was a game I was looking forward to but now thanks to your review I won’t even give it a second chance[/sarcasm]. Seriously though I’m guessing somebody will be receiving an E-mail from Quantic Dream.

I've also come to the conclusion that it will be silly to give myself the £20 budget this month as there’s only a few days left. So I’ll try not to buy anything for the remainder of the month. Even I should be able to do that.
