I'm still waiting on Steve's stuff. The dude's been massively busy, but he has content produced. It's just a matter of him getting enough time to either post it himself or to send it to me to post for him. It's coming soon (I think...).
At any rate, gaming continues. February was a slow month overall for me. I only knocked out one game (although I'm thisclose to Derrol Fleischmannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03287048860500476663noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434505070113696589.post-80617873321021051582010-02-01T14:30:00.000-06:002010-02-01T14:30:39.506-06:00Derrol's January 2010 in reviewNow that Steve's a part of this thing (his first post is coming soon, I promise), I feel like I should specify that this is my month in review. At any rate, January was a decent start to the new year.
The "Year of Epic RPGs" that I had planned for 2010 isn't off to a very good start. I did finish off two games, putting me (for now, at least) on the same pace I set in 2009.

I plan on continuing this series soon, so I figured I should post the beginning for those who didn't follow me there.
I remember it as if it were yesterday (to use a cliche):
It was the beginning of the summer vacation after third grade in 1988. I had just brought home my fourth quarter report card...the one that, if it contained Derrol Fleischmannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03287048860500476663noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434505070113696589.post-77176492684037358032010-01-12T22:11:00.000-06:002010-01-12T22:11:22.242-06:00A New Challenger Approaches!Things have been a bit slow starting out, but hopefully that's about to change.

I got a new job, did some interesting things, and, with much regret, left my longtime home for all things game collecting, the Candid Collector's Union on GameSpot. But one thing has remained constant: I still love video games. I'm pretty sure that will never change.
That said, let's take a look back at what was a sneaky-successful year on the gaming/collecting Derrol Fleischmannhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03287048860500476663noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2434505070113696589.post-28164444002996930612009-12-29T08:52:00.001-06:002009-12-29T16:13:13.058-06:00Introductions all aroundAfter three and a half years of dumping the scrambled video game-related contents of my brain onto a page on GameSpot, I've decided it's high time I strike out on my own. I've been linking my blog to a couple different sites and it recently occurred to me that people who aren't GameSpot members might want to throw their two cents in on occasion.
