What have you been playing?

Hello and welcome to "What have you been playing?" a blog about the video games that I have been playing (see what I did there?). This would normally be the place where I would set parameters and tell all (or none) of you out in the blogosphere or internetland what you can expect from this website, but we won't be doing that today, or probably ever because damn it, I will not be constrained.
What makes me qualified to write about video games? Readers will have to be the judge of that, but to give everyone an idea my perspective: When I was three my parents brought home the Nintendo Entertainment System© which would forever change my life (up for debate if it was for better or to its ultimate destruction). I have owned all major consoles since (sorry Virtual Boy©, you don't count and you never will. (If headgear makes you look like a nerd, the Virtual Boy turns you into "Red Shirt Guy" (no disrespect intended high master of Lore and correction. You make Azeroth a better place.))
I have a huge place in my gaming heart for small developers and have purchased many a game based on the developer, without thinking twice if I would enjoy the game (I am looking at you Nation Red). I hope to have interviews with some of these developers so we can all share in our love of games and the people who make them.
Tomorrow we will start this journey together with the game that I have been playing: The Ball
