Whoa Lookie Here!
Another glorious week has blown by and I have failed yet again to deliver my highly anticipated (at least by me anyway) Assassins Creed review. And although I have suffered greatly during this time, I still survive!
Learn Something New Everyday
As the old cliche goes, "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger." It is in this spirit that I made a few decisions last night. For starters my game pad is not the best. I have been using a cheap Logitech precision gaming pad but it's time to part with it. Last night i amazoned an xbox 360 controller for windows. Programming one of the pads to emulate a mouse will go far with all of the console ports popping up lately.
How To Be Loved
Did some thinking about how to generate more traffic as well. Face it the more readers I have the better. At first I thought about gimmicks I could try but then I realized I just need more reviews. I can't say that I am in love with my audience why should they be with me? Perhaps a relationship based on mutual respect would be the best start. You seem like a decent bunch, introduce me to your mothers, or at least your wives ;)
Old Dirty YouTube
Some brilliant bastard has registered the username cruelgamer :(
Piss on a stick, I knew that was gonna be a problem sooner or later. Now I have to think up a clever name to post videos under. I'm going to bite the bullet and start producing in game movies. Should I bother appealing to the 10 second attention span surfer? Sure, why not? But only if I enjoy it myself, that's the rule for now.
The Dailies
The reviewing process for me is different than some other sites. I have decided to actually finish the games before the final verdict. Sounds great in theory but makes for a boring front page and sporadic content updates to the site. In an effort to kill two birds with an even larger bird I have decided to give daily feedback on the title under review. These will probably be brutal and raw with emotion. Hopefully better reviews will be the result.
Back To Work
OK, I have to go stab some people to death now and im sure you have to go eat lunch or finish that power point presentation. Let's meet up here once you get off work and I will tell you how it goes.
