Happy New Year!

I wish you all of a very happy new year, lots of gaming fun, be it on the PC, or your respective console, be it in an FPS, RTS, MMORPG or other genre.

May this new year bring us better games, new genres or genre defining games, new and forward thinking initiatives from all publishers, big AND small.

Good luck to the new MMORPGs that will see the day this year, and here's to the current ones. Cheers cheers!! These last ones, may you see your subscriptions and revenues grow, may we see new players join the fun and fury - not just migrate from another game - and lets have more fun today than yesterday, and less than tomorrow!!

As for myself, I hope to find the time to play as much as I want to, knowing that this year will be full of surprises!! Indeed folks, this is the year that I shall become a father! And if I believe the press, I shouldn't worry at all about my parenting skills, au contraire!

In preparation for the grand arrival, I've started playing old and new games which I can stop at any given moment (blessed be the PAUSE): Halo 2, 1701 A.D. and Dungeon Siege II. Though I still plan to spend a good amount of time in EVE, sometimes PVP missions simply won't be possible for this big daddy.

I'll let you know how things go when the time comes. In the mean time, I would appreciate any advice. So if you're a gamer dad, or gamer mom, and can still balance your gaming need with your responsibility of parenthood, then please feel free to dispense your advice.

I'll be more than happy to listen!
