Tuesday I fly home for Thanksgiving, so I have about 72 hours to get all the pre-holiday console gaming done that I want before those things go dark for a week.
This is always a vexing proposition, as I really want to dive into something like Batman: Arkham City or Saints Row: The Third, but Iām a big momentum gamer, and shutting it down for a week just when things are getting good probably means Iāll restart when I return.
What Iāll likely do, then, is get a look at some Call of Duty multiplayer, mostly to say I did it. Iāve also rekindled a hankering for NCAA Football and have a few key matchups coming in a dynasty that Iāve restarted there.
It seems ridiculous to actually avoid some of the yearās best games, but Iām completely neurotic about how I game long-playing genres like RPGs and open-world actioners. I know Iād only come back and restart them. Anyone else the same way? Let us and your fellow gamers know what youāre playing.
