People born in the 80's like me, have grown up during the golden age of gaming. It has been interesting to live through the launch of Nintendo, Sega Genesis, Playstation, Xbox, etc.. In the end, PC Gaming is what has kept me playing. Like most people of my generation, the free time for gaming has shrunk over the years between work and expanding families. It's hard to find time for games and the time flies by when you find the time. Despite the lack of time, sometimes I play games and find I can spend more time talking about them than play. I find myself sometimes acting like car a salesman for gaming by telling friends/coworkers about games I'm playing or new gaming tech coming out. Realizing just how much I talk about gaming, I decided to create this blog and maybe save those poor people from hearing so much about my gaming.
