Apologies for the site outage yesterday, it was caused by computers being to stupid and slow to actually talk to each other without a human being in the middle authorising everything. So, so, so dumb and meat based. Anyway, it gave me a chance to think of a topic for today's update, and I made a staggering realisation:

Everything that I have to say about video games, I've already said a million times already.

I've been writing about video games for well over ten years now. In addition to reviewing several thousand games of various quality I've covered topics like…

Crappy things that publishers are doing.

Horrible movie to game conversions

Too many sequels

Not enough original games

Piracy boo hoo hoo

Are games too expensive?

Oh no! A politician doesn't like our industry!

Generic Top 10 List

Celebrity Endorsements

Music games dont improve your musical talent

Advertising in Games

…over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again.

I mean look in any gaming magazine ever made. IT'S THE SAME TOPICS FOREVER AND EVER.

You could seriously grab a 20 year old copy of Zzap! 64, change the publication date, screenshots and game names, put it out as a new publication and NOBODY WILL BE ANY WISER.

Seriously, try it! 

I think I've finally run out of things to say. I mean really, I only ever play the same five games any more, it's not like there's anything new coming up to talk about.

Depressing thought to be sure, but I'm sure some time spent playing Civilization Revolution on the 360 will fix that shortly.
