My break is going well. It took a couple of weeks to get beack into a more relaxed mode, but it has been achieved! And while rested, I had a good look at the site. There is a lot that needs to be done! But that is after my break. For now, just musing out loud.
I have been pushing through the last few weeks, and things have finally hit that point. Push on and hit proper burnout, or take a break and rest. So, break it is!
You can really tell when I get busy. New games coming out? That’s nice. I am aware of them on the outside, but it takes a lot to grab my attention. Luckily June has some titles releasing that has managed to land as highlights for me!
It’s coming up to a busy time for me, and I am much more selective on what I am excited about this time of year. Some people may be surprised at games that haven’t excited me in the May releases.
April is a strange month for what has caught my attention. A PlayStation 5 launch announcement is releasing, as well as a new version of an N64 staple. There will likely be much more than I have jotted down today, but as there is little confirmed on that front, right now it doesn’t exist in my world.
March seems to be a month of a lot of my old favourites getting some TLC in various ways. Remasters, sequels, new platforms – in one way or another, I will be able to play some old favourites or play them on a platform I couldn’t before. What do I mean? Well you will have to check out my March Highlights to see!
So it has come to light that JohnHQLDPLays, our Facebook page, has come under Facebook’s news blackout ‘experiment’. So while a lot of people use the page to see what’s happening, rest assured the site updates are still happening, even if Facebook isn’t sharing!
Saturday I took a rest day after a long week. Lucky for me, Saturday was also the release for the Nicolas Cage film Willy’s Wonderland. After watching the trailer, I decided that I had to sit back and enjoy some B grade goodness. What Rabbit and I experienced was not the mindless laugh we were expecting, but a surprisingly enjoyable (but still B grade) film that I can see becoming a cult classic.
So my plan was to hand in there until the new CPU arrived. Well, that’s at least 2 more months away, so posts will slow down for a week or two as I work out a new workflow. But that doesn’t mean the site is slowing down!
This year there are a lot of new releases happening this February. This is good overall, as February is normally a funny month. Too late for the new announcements, and too soon for the end of quarter announcements. But there is always something to look forward to though, even if one this month I am watching to see if the publisher caves.
