Hey guys, after my initial post of a review for the newest addition to the Call of Duty franchise, which I feel I could have taken some more time over, I've decided to keep this post simple and explain a bit about this here blog. The way I see it, is a way to get my thoughts and opinions out of my mind and written down. I have long had string views and opinions on video games, films, music and the like. The blog comes into this as a way for me to compile all of these thoughts into one article. In this blog I will mainly concentrate my posts about the subject of gaming, including my thoughts on the latest 'big' gaming news, debates and of course reviews, along with some other gaming tidbits here and there. However now and then I may feel the need to comment on the latest films, music and other subjects that make an impression on me.
So why the name Vampiric Gamer? Well I suppose the answer is quite simple really. The obvious part is that I am in fact an active gamer of varying levels of commitment on the Xbox 360 and PC, more so the 360 side of things. As for the Vampiric part, just to clarify it's not because I drink blood, can turn into a bat or fear sunlight (which might I add DOES NOT make a Vampire sparkle) it's more to do with the fact that during the past few years I have become nocturnal, in the sense that ok yes I do go out during the day and all, but when the sunsets I am unable to sleep till the early hours of the morning, often 3.00 or 4.00 am. When it came to deciding a name for the blog, well nocturnal gamer didn't quite have the right ring to it, so I settled for Vampiric Gamer, since Vampires are nocturnal creatures, and I am a fan of the more tradition Vampires that have been around since before Twilight.
Some of you may be wondering why Black Ops 2? well the idea to do a review came about from discussing the game with friends, and looking at other reviews online in which many reviewers seemed to have missed the point that for the first time since Call of Duty 4, the series has seen a major overall. Many reviewers still seemed stuck on the Modern Warfare 3 game, which to me felt mediocre at best, the campaign didn't seem to have had much thought behind it, but I'll stop myself there for so that this post doesn't become a review.
On a final note, I am looking to start posting a bit more frequently, if I can find the necessary free time that is, if there is anything you would like me to talk about/comment on feel free to leave a comment with suggestions and general feedback. Hope this has helped you see what to expect from the future, any questions put them in the comments and if i get enough I'll do a Q&A blog post :)
