"Video Game-A-Day" Thread

[KingLouieLouie]

Okay..there's been movie-a-day.... then there was "album-a-day"..Unfortunately the latter just vanished (and I'll accept blame for that one and perhaps restart it again)... but how about the fresh idea of "video game-a-day"? I know there are several gamers on here who would love to post about their favorite games of all-time..

It could be from any game system.. even PC or arcade.... if anyone is interested.. please let me know... could be very exciting.....

SCHEDULE:
1) HeavyB3: 3/7
2) dreamcastrocks: 3/13
3) Chaplin: 3/20
4) BIM: 3/27
5) D-Dogg: 4/3
6) abomb: 4/10
7) Evil Ash: 4/17
8) Vince56: 4/24
10) bratwurst: 5/1
11) thirty-two: 5/8
12) phillycard: 5/15
13) dogpoo32: 5/22
14) KLL: 5/29

It could be similar to the format of both movie and album a day.... A person has their own week.. but obviously in this instance they do either video or PC games... if youre interested in doing the first wk, please let me know.. and then perhaps others can sign-up to have a week of their own....

Hmmm.....

You must be registered for see images attach

I wonder which video game-a-day game will get the most amount of attention and posts?

I'm down to try this out--my Movie-A-Day idea seems to have a lot of popularity over the years, so maybe this one will take off.

Yeah..that was a wonderful brainstorm/concept of starting "movie-a-day"... "Album-a-day" is something I would love to revive, however, it seems since music is soo subjective...it is difficult to maintain it on a regular basis..... It a logical progression that "video game-a-day" happens and perhaps later on if anyone is interested... there could be "book-a-day".......

Tentatively, I'll continue this week w/another installment and then HeavyB3 (if possible) can be scheduled to start on 3/13 and then dreamcastrocks (who expressed interest under another thread) can start the week of 3/20.. and so forth...... So.. if anyone else is interested, please let me know and I'll definitely work you in.... Chaplin.. you could go around 3/27 (if thats possible)...

I just dont want this forum to be strictly reliant/dictated on music because some times it seems people lose interest in music and that causes this forum to go lack activity for a substantial period... just want the 2 other topics of this forum to really pick-up and also to help re-establish interest in music related discussions in the process.....​

That should be good for me, my new job keeps me busy, but I usually find some time to post during the day and/or night.

 

[dreamcastrocks]

I am down.

 

[Brian in Mesa]

I'll do a week.

 

[D-Dogg]

You can add me.

 

[Ryanwb]

Can I have 1 day and not a week. I'm not looking for any long term commitments right now. I've been hurt in the past

 

[abomb]

You can add me for a week.

Can I have tomorrow? Wednesday is hump day and that just sits well with me

 

[KingLouieLouie]

Okay....I've already adjusted the schedule....

HeavyB3 can take over my turn for the rest of the week.. and Ryan along with HeavyB3 can post one of each tomorrow....

Again.. if anyone else is interested... please let me know and I'll add everyone accordingly.....

 

[Evil Ash]

I'll do a week

 

[Chaplin]

Can I suggest that since video games are such a visual medium, that people who are doing their days can post a screenshot? It would help for those of us that might not have ever heard of the game in question.

Ooh good call.

 

[abomb]

Good suggestion Chaplin. Also can we sticky the main thread and list out the reviewed games with links to their threads? Hope that makes sense.

Those are both excellent ideas Chaplin and abomb.....

The schedule now has been adjusted w/Evil Ash being added to the list..... Again.. please let me know on here if you're interested to be added.....

Also... if you want album-a-day to be revived, please let me know..... I honestly dont know whether or not that I'll be on here as much over the next cpl wks as I have been this past wk, so I hope everyone continues to help maintain this forum as an active one......

(cough, cough)
kinda like how Vince did it, but only more verbose in description?

On a side note, Lou, I'd be up for a day as well, and as I'd love to give a whole week, I frankly don't have the time right now, unfortunately, or I'd be all over it (why could you not have had this idea 2 months ago!!)

Okay..youve been added to the schedule...

Well.. in some respects.. I hinted about "video game-a-day" before, however, that was if people wanted to combine their turn of "album-a-day" w/a game...

Also... I've been rather inactive on here for the most part for over the past fews months...so... unfortunately I didnt want do much w/the forum during that time....
