Shameless Gaming: I Had Almost Forgotten…

Shameless Gaming is about playing through your pile of shame. But it can also be taken literally — it is gaming without shame. It’s about liberating yourself from your normal gaming expectations and just giving in to the experience. Last year I was all about the backlog aspect — blasting through as many games as possible. This year? All I care about is enjoying what I play, ignoring the expectations I usually place upon myself. So far, it’s been incredible.


Shameless Gaming: Soul Control

When I thought about Shameless Gaming month, and the games I truly wanted to catch up on? The only one that really mattered, the only game that started a wee fire in my belly.

Shameless Gaming: Plan B

It happened around the middle of last week. I looked at my pile of shame. It towered high, and I felt intimidated. Worse, there were only a handful of games on the pile I actually wanted to invest time in. Some I knew I wanted no part of — dull generic games — others felt as though they would require too much time. “Why am I doing this,” I asked myself. Isn’t Shameless Gaming supposed to be about playing the games you want to play, instead of the games you should be playing? It was at this point I made a bold decision.

Shameless Gaming: How’s Everyone Going?

As you may already be aware, July is Shameless Gaming month — a time for consolidation, to play all those games still in cellophane, or the ones you spent half an hour with before plonking Skyrim back in the disc tray.
