Well, almost all of the major game releases for the year are done, with only a few big names left to release. This week saw the release of Modern Warfare 3 of course, which is absolutely huge and it’s been a pleasant surprise to see how many folks are losing their pips for Skyrim… because it looks amazing.

Me? I’ve got enough to keep me busy until the next generation of consoles come out, so that’s what I’ll be doing from now till then. It’s a good time to be a gamer.
