And I’m going to stop it right here. There are still another 25 PCGamer articles from Sunday, let alone the ones from today, to share, and that is, quite frankly, f*cking ridiculous.

If you’ve just read the gaming news posts tell me, can you name 5 or more newly announced games without looking? There are so many, plus the ones that were announced that finally have some gameplay to show, that it’s impossible to pay attention to all of them.

I may post the rest of the articles tomorrow with the gaming news, I’m not sure, but I can tell you that I’ll likely skip all this work next year.

Now, if you excuse me, my Control, C and V keys are begging me for mercy. And so does my brain.
