On Tuesday, Fable came out for the Xbox. Typically, I review a handful of games each week. I ration out the time I spend on each one so I can write the best review I can and still not spend my entire life playing video games. This summer I haven’t had much to worry about in the way of games being so good I couldn’t put down. Summer is notoriously bad time for video game releases and this summer was abysmal. All that changed on Tuesday when I popped in Fable for the first time. The house is a mess, I haven’t slept in days, and my manuscript actually accumulated dust this week.

It serves as an excellent reminder of why I’m going to hand over some of the writing responsibilities to the writing staff. Simon and the gang are eagerly putting together some great content for the website and the columns. I’ll continue to contribute but some of the daily reviews will be handled by the staff. Beth, the newest addition to the team is eager to add her two cents worth on the latest video games.

I appreacite all of the encouraging e-mails and contact with so many loyal readers. Just remember if you don’t see something written by me for a while, it’s because I’ve been locked away playing Fable and Doom 3. Ah, the inhumanity of it all.
