Who?
I am TLV. I'm 19 and live in North Carolina.

What?
This blog will encompass my "1 Month of Gaming". This will take place during August. The point is to play as many Video Games as possible, beat as many Video Games as possible and have fun doing it.

Why?
When I was a kid Video games were my favorite thing to do. I didn'y really have that many games but I played the ones I had to death. I would rent games from Blockbuster and play the shit out of them until my week was up and I had to return them. As I grew older I played them less as I got a social life. Now with Internet Piracy I have too many games. I used to jump at the idea of playing a new game. And No matter how bad the game I would beat every single one. Now I generally play a game for a few hours and get bored of it. If the game gets to a dull point I will play something else and the first game will just sit there until i forget about it. Will the ability to download and play almost any game I have over saturated myself with them to where the fun I used to have is gone and I just play to pass the time.

What games?
Any game. I own a PS2, a Gamecube and a decent computer.

How?
I don't have a job and have nothing to do all day. Most of my waking hours will be devoted to gaming. I'm aiming at 10 hours a day.




I have 3 weeks to prepare. In this time I have to decide what games to play and what order.

What do you guys think? What games should I play? What games SHOULDN'T I play.

    Dirt or GRID. Too bad you didnt have steam. A week ago you could get the THQ complete for 50 bucks including metro 2033 and tons of others.

    For the PS2:

    Gran Turismo 4 (racing)
    Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas
    Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater

    Those are staples of the console. They can't be ignored.

    MGS3 is one of my favorite games ever. But the list I have is entirely games I haven't played or started and never continued. That's kinda the point to play new games and not the same ones over and over again. Own the other 2, great games, nothing wrong with them. But I'm looking to play stuff that's new to me.


    And i couldnt find anything about nationred.
