Gentlemen, start your engines!

Ok, so my last day of work was yesterday. And unless I find another job that starts sooner, I have two weeks until I start at Bank of America. So that means that in between hunting for jobs and going on interviews I have to get through as many games in my backlog as possible. After perusing my collection and making determinations and decisions, here is my list in no particular order. There are...
Ok, so my last day of work was yesterday. And unless I find another job that starts sooner, I have two weeks until I start at Bank of America. So that means that in between hunting for jobs and going on interviews I have to get through as many games in my backlog as possible. After perusing my collection and making determinations and decisions, here is my list in no particular order. There are more than this but these are the ones I REALLY want to at least try before I start work again. A few I will probably just play for a little while and say, “Yep, cool. That game is fun,” before moving it aside and starting on something else. The majority though I do intend to finish someday, as indicated by the astericks. I probably won’t come close to going through the whole thing but its always better to shoot for more than is possible right? Better to aim high than low.

That gives me about 14 days to play 24 games. I’ll be lucky if I get through half of them. And let’s not forget that Ratchet and Clank: Quest for Booty comes out next Thursday. Not to mention the fact that I will probably continue to be pulled into the occasional online session of Burnout Paradise randomly along the way. But hey, I’ll have a hell of a lot of fun trying! And who knows, if I get the job at Progressive I am trying for then I won’t start working again until Sept 29th! So I could potentially be looking at almost a month and a half of lazing about scratching my balls. Here’s hoping! I will give status updates along the way as well as a recap right before I go back to work.
