Did you ever get the sense at the end of last year that there weren’t as many AAA gotta have titles released as has been the custom of years past?  Wondered where all of the games were that you were supposed to be playing in 2009?

As every gamer knows, this is typically the time of year where we can all relax and catch up on our backlogs, aka the pile of shame, that we’ve added even more games to during the holiday season.   I hope you all were able to catch up very quickly because the AAA games are coming over the course of the next 3 months.  This is what last fall should have looked like had it not been for Modern Warfare 2.  There is just one problem. We no longer have an excuse to get other people to purchase all of this gaming goodness for us since Christmas has come and gone.  Everyone has to figure out a way to get the games they want on their own or coerce someone into getting them for you.  You might want to be a little more loving this Valentine’s Day!
