While You Were Sleeping

This is it. 2013 is about to be consigned to the history books, and you’ve had your last overnight snooze of the year. Things were happening while you were busy being a Viking.

You know those TV Tabloid style “won’t anyone think of the children” style anti-gaming stories? The next time anyone busts anyone of those on you, simply refer to this excellent lad who saved his family due to his extreme dedication to videogaming. A gold star is appropriate, I think.

I wasn’t that thrilled by Call Of Duty: Ghosts — and clearly I wasn’t alone — but I could perhaps be more drawn into it as a text adventure. Then again, my old school roots are probably showing.

Actually, they’re definitely showing; not only can I remember when Resident Evil was a sparkly new bit of IP, but I can reach my original Playstation copy from where I’m writing this. Still, Capcom’s own analysis of Resident Evil’s future makes for interesting, if rather grim reading.
