Decisions, decisions.......

A plea to the developers out there:

Stop. Just fucking stop it already.

I have been a PC gamer for probably 20 years now. 3 years ago, when a bunch of my friends were all buying Xbox 360's, I bought one of those too. in 2008 I gave my wife a Wii for our second anniversary. In 2009, within a week of filing my taxes I found a great deal on a PS3, and couldn't pass that up. And just a few months later (August) I needed to upgrade the ol' PC again so so I invested in a gaming laptop that will hold up for a while.

And then just last week I caved to Sony's "free LBP when you buy a new PSPgo" promotion.

Long story short, when a great game comes out, I have more than enough hardware to support it. Even if it's an exclusive like Forza 3 or God of War 3, I can't use that as an excuse.

I have a full time job and a toddler. My wife works second shift so weeknights I am solely responsible for maintaining the kid's schedule and taking care of everything else around the house. I usually have less than 2 hours of "me" time each night. When I can, I play games. But I am really having a very tough time fitting it into my schedule here.

So in about 26 hours, it will be Tuesday here on the east coast. Tuesday, March 2, the official release date of BF:BC2.

I am just starting to get used to MAG's controls.

But when Battlefield 2 was released for PC, I played the crap out of that game. From what I've seen of BC2, it makes BF2 look far more obsolete than it is.

So please, game developers, give an old man a break. I am spending way too much money and time trying to catch up on these " must have" games and in the end, I can't dedicate enough of my attention to these games you develop. And you leave me with some extremely difficult choices to make.

Like, for example: On Tuesday am I buying the Xbox, PS3, or PC version of the fucking game?
