Get Digitized

Hello denizens of the internet, and welcome, to my arcade! If you're reading this, there's a chance you will have already read some posts from My Cinema, (just click that little hyperlink there if you haven't!) but if not, that's alright, because you're not missing anything as far as gaming is concerned. Which brings us to our topic doesn't it?

My Cinema is an outlet for me that lets me talk about movies and relieve my desire to write, while informing the world that they're wrong about movies and my viewpoint is the only one that matters, of course! So, as you can guess, My Arcade serves a similar purpose, allowing me to write about video games instead of movies though. Which is probably better anyway since I can indulge myself a bit more greatly in gaming. The problem being, I don't game as much as I used to, I mean, I probably spend the same percentage of my personal time gaming, maybe a little less, but it's not as diverse as I would like for it to be, don't worry, material can be drudged up from anywhere.

Speaking of material being drudged up from anywhere, aside from the simple difference between video games and movies, I suppose I should note a distinctive difference between the two blogs. My Cinema finds itself in a sort of critiquing niche, having single page reviews of movies posted (optimally) every day. My Arcade should instead be filled with not just reviews, but various sorts of materials, and for that reason I'll start with this opening, and a little slice of information: I love gaming, and my favorite genres are:

Action-Adventure: 
Role-Playing Games:
Real-Time Strategy: 

That about covers the genres, and for clarity's sake, almost all of these are games I have played extensively (the only exceptions being Assassin's Creed and what you consider extensive in Final Fantasy), but these aren't the only genres I play, just my favorites, and these aren't the only games in those genres I play, just notable examples. We could post a hundred pictures here and it still wouldn't cover all the games I enjoy playing. Oh wait...there's one example I left out...
MOBA:
 

Because seriously, MOBAs take up most of my gaming time, those and MOBILE games. MOBAs (for those unaware) are Multiplayer Online Battle Arenas, and basically consist of gameplay centered around short 30-45 minute sessions and team-based gameplay. Pick a character, enter a battle, win/lose, repeat. Yes, I only posted the League of Legends emblem, no that's not the only MOBA I play, that's just the only one I play consistently, I also hop on Smite and Heroes of the Storm occasionally, and every now and then I'm foolish enough to jump into DOTA 2, but I leave shortly after.

Everything make sense so far? Awesome, onward and upward!
