It's a Metallica song. Off their "Black Album". Since the comment by ShamrockRovers in my blahg Faith No More I've decided to have the topic of my blahgs be related to music that I like. Whether it's a band name, song name, lyric from a song, or what have you. It's what I've decided to do to spice things up a bit [and sometimes wrack my brain for something logical]. So, thank you ShamrockRovers for triggering a synapse in my brain to fire just right that it gave me the idea.

Anyway, here's what this blahg is really about. For quite awhile now I've been wondering about the release dates of my most anticipated upcoming releases. Sure, I could always come onto this site [or another] and look them up that way. Or.........I could compile my Tracked Games list into Microsoft Word and organize them by release. So that's EXACTLY what I did. I first [of course] looked all the release dates up. Then started organizing them into categories on Word.

These are the categories: 2008 [actual release dates or at least month & year], Q3 08, Q4 08, TBA 08, 2009, Q1 09, Q2 09, TBA 09

This is just in case any of you want to follow suit. That way you can take a compiled look and plan accordingly. Once all this was finished [Approx. 20-30 mins. later] I took a good look at the 2 pages I had just typed up. I then realized, more so than ever, that this holiday season is so f***ed. There's so many great looking titles coming out shortly that I don't know what to do with myself. Of course I want to own all of them on launch, but that's just not realistic. So, the problem is, which do I want to own at launch and which do I want to sacrifice for a later date.

I don't mind waiting for a pushed release but having to wait on account of cash flow just sucks. Now, I normally preorder. That way I can pay off my games WAY in advance. The past few months have been particularly skimpy on money. I'm in a bind. Guess I'll just have to roll with the punches. Sort 'em as I see fit.

Therein lies my "Struggle Within".
