I don't read a lot of games writing because a) most of it is pish and b) there's too much else to read but I really enjoyed this one.

This bit genuinely made me lol:

Books FIFA 2003 and SimCity 3000 computer games.

Soccer makes me feel empty and I barely know how to read, so the first two mean nothing to me

Yeah neither do I, but the folks at PCgamer and Rock Paper Shotgun are pretty good possibly even comrades. My phone doesn't get a signal at my desk so when I sit there for long stretches with no sales calls or orders to process I just browse them and watch youtube shit.

It's a shame really because I'm probably contributing to a bit of a self-fulfilling prophecy of not reading games journalism because most of it is bad, therefore not finding the better stuff etc.

Yeah Rock Paper Shotgun even has a decent comment section at times. Might be my fave site for pc games since it also covers lots of indie stuff
