Right, so here I am, as usual, surfing the shelves for any kind of interesting game. Nothing's out and nothing is coming out that pushes any kind of boundary or even attempts to be somewhat different. After over a decade of Shooters and Strategy games, isn't it time for something new? We've been reinventing and polishing the wheel for so long now that it's become quite tiresome. No amount of Great Stories or Interesting Gameplay Quirks will change the fact that the game itself is still based off of concepts that haven't changed in ten years. "More of a good thing" used to be good, now we're drowning in the things.

I eagerly await the next game that will revolutionize the industry and bring a new Era to gaming as we know it. I'll be waiting a long, long time.

Now that I've gotten PlanetSide out of my system, I can get back to doing the thing that are truly important, such as "nothing," as well as updating this now and again. There was much rejoicing.
