Dear Bungie, Unlike JDevL, I’m a completionist, and an achievement whore. Whatever. Pigeon-holing aside, I’m cautious in the games that I buy because I know I’m going to go for 1,000/1,000 gamer points, including the “Insane!” achievement. I have a deep appreciation for titles/developers who take care to not only create a game that can stand up to my monogame-ous commitment but to improving their IP whether it’s an in between a title, a sequel, or during the title’s life [...]

If that’s the case, Jadetiger CG is on her 4th Xbox and no longer [...]

Apparently, even when we can’t game for real, we all end up playing the same 2-3 mobile games anyway. Otherwise, everyone seems to be settling into their first major title for the fall which will fuel our fights of which game was best come December and January. [...]
Last week in A Gamer’s Journey: From Modern Warfare 2 to Halo: Reach, I discussed what it was like for me to transition from one game to the other. I purposely left out the community aspect of both games because that article would have wound up as long as the Fallout: New Vegas guide.
