My Ideal Saturday
For the life of me, I cannot remember the last time I had a weekend play out the way I wanted it to. Work usually bleeds over onto at least one of the weekend days, and the house usually needs cleaning or repair. And before you ask about friends and family, I devote far too much time both of them (both are overrated, in my opinion). I'm not complaining, mind you. I just wish I had one Saturday to myself.
Here's how that day would play out...
10:02AM: I WAKE UP TO THE SMELL OF A BACON BREAKFAST
10:22AM: A MAJOR THUNDERSTORM HITS, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO GO OUTSIDE
10:23AM: I'M FORCED TO EITHER PLAY A GAME...
...OR WATCH A MOVIE
12:01PM: I TAKE A SHORT BREAK TO EAT AN AMAZING MACARONI LUNCH
12:18PM: I RETRO GAME
1:05PM: I BOOT UP THE CUBS GAME ON MY IPAD
3:00PM: I WATCH DOCTOR WHO...
...BUT ONLY THE SERIES WITH AMY POND
4:00PM: THE STORM LETS UP AND I GO ACTION FIGURE SHOPPING
4:45PM: THE BEST KIND OF GIRL SCOUT COOKIES ARE DELIVERED TO MY DOORSTEP
5:23PM: I IGNORE A TEXT MESSAGE FROM GI'S DAN RYCKERT AND LAUGH ABOUT IT
5:24PM: I GO BACK TO GAMING. THIS TIME WITH FRIENDS.
7:30PM: I READ A GRAPHIC NOVEL ABOUT SUPERHEROES BEING MEAN TO OTHER SUPERHEROES
9:30PM: A FIVE MINUTE BREAK LEADS TO DINNER BEING MADE
10:00PM: I TROLL AND ARGUE WITH PEOPLE IN THE ELDER SCROLLS FORUMS
11:00PM: I DEDICATE AN HOUR TO THE BOOK I'll NEVER FINISH WRITING
1:04AM: I GO OUTSIDE TO WATCH A NEIGHBOR GET ARRESTED SINCE I LIVE IN THE HOOD
4:00AM: I RAISE MY COD KILL TO DEATH RATIO
4:02AM: I CRAWL INTO BED AND WATCH A TV SERIES UNTIL I FALL ASLEEP
5:30AM: I DREAM ABOUT DINOSAURS

Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
