It's weird. I hadn't played video games since I was a grade-schooler, but one
day in early 2002, on a friend's recommendation I went to my local Fry's and
picked up a copy of Black & White. I played the HECK out of that game, but
soon I was hungry for more. This page is a stark chronicle of the addiction that
ensued and that plagues me even today.
The games, by platform. I doubt I'll ever have time to review them all (too
busy playing), but I'll provide links to those I do.
