GOTY 2014: Or, Can Gary Put a Mobile Game as his GOTY?!
In the opening days of 2014, I worked on a website and had all the free time in the world to give to gaming. Then, things changed. The site went away due to events out of my control, my free time vanished like Ethan Carter, and personal life (and paying rent) got in the way of giving as much time to games as I wanted to. It was the year where the industry lost many people and attempted to eat itself alive. And more than that, it was a year where Triple A games were broken as hell, and smaller games fully took over. That's not to say that I didn't enjoy some AAA games (here's looking at you, Wolfenstein) but for the most part, it is now the Indie Age.
Keeping that in mind, what does that mean for my gaming habits moving forward? Well, I am happy to say I will be working on a new project, starting in the first few months of the new year. Its been a long time coming, and I have been able to recharge my batteries following the end of Bonus Pretzel. More information will be out in the next few weeks, but I cannot wait to start producing more editorial and video content.
That being said, let's look at 2014.
