Can you imagine? Just reading that breaks my heart a little. We're coming up on a year since the last post. I came to the blog, and I read a couple of the last entries we made. They made me laugh. Not because I thought, oh man, what a bunch of jackasses, and not in that way that really just means I'm trying not to be depressed about another little project falling by the wayside. I laughed because they were funny to me, and I really liked reading them. And you know something? I loved writing them, too.
I really enjoyed this blog last year. Recently Sean, Mike, Brendan and myself were talking about Zuul Arcade, but it was a regrettably short conversation. My sincere hope is that I won't be the only one wanting to push back into things.
Since April, we've certainly gamed a lot. Like a LOT. Mostly more current games, and we haven't really seen fit to attach that to this website. However, it occurs to me that we should have been doing that, even if it was unrelated to the project at hand. Like I said in the very first post, this is our arcade. That means if we aren't working on our high score in Pac-Man, we should feel free to go and spend some time playing Gauntlet or some shit, because it's our place to game, and laugh, and share it with each other.
So. That said, I'm picking up the controller. Last time, I put it down because of the same reason I always do. I missed out on getting a character, and was so annoyed every time I played after that, I didn't feel like continuing, so I decided to give it some time. Stupid. And since everyone else was falling into their own little pits with their games, I had no one to look to. We all got stuck simultaneously.
Well you know what, boys and girls? There's someone out there who wouldn't let that happen. There's someone out there who would say get up out of that hole and keep playing, damn it. That's right. Jeff Motherfuckin' Benson. That dude had 17 games under his belt.
The point is, this was too much fun to just let it die outright. So I want to try again and I hope you'll come along with me.
