The Games Of 2012 Approach

It’s hard to believe how quickly this year has flown by, but December fast approaches this weekend. With it comes another edition of my overwhelming blog post series, Games Of 2012.

For those unfamiliar: every day, from the first of December through Christmas Day, I’ll be posting about some game that left an impression on me over the calendar year. It’s one part buying guide, one part navel-gazing, one part finger pointing at bad gaming trends, and mostly an exercise in rapid writing. Here are all the entries from 2011.

The open question to readers who have been trough this before: are there any things you’d like me to do differently this year? More reviews, maybe? More media? Posts through the 31st?

Any suggestions are welcome between now and Saturday – the day on which, as chance would have it, I’ll be revisiting my Game Of 2011, Sleep No More, for the 8th time.

If you’re the sort of person who can’t manage their paper stack, the kind of worker who finds themselves scrambling from notebook to notebook looking for documents from a year ago, or are part of the tough crowd of people who like to Get Things Done, this 10 minute tutorial is for you.
