Because tanks are fun!
Given that my prevailing opinion of BF1942 boils down to: "great tank game, too bad the rest of it is crap", you'd think that I would be intrigued by and attracted to a game dedicated entirely to tank combat. You would think that. And you would be correct. God bless those eastern hemisphere developers for daring to make games so focused on some obscure niche that it is not only likely that 90% of the people on this planet will have no interest in it whatsoever, it is in fact a design goal. And god bless Battlefront for selling them.
Regarding my (most) recent slight panic attack over the sheer number of games I've decided I absolutely must play, consider the issue "resolved", at least until such time as it unresolves itself again. After some drinking thinking, I realized that my goal isn't to eliminate that list, but rather to simply keep it under control. It may have grown a bit unwieldy, but so long as the tenure of any given entry on the list isn't so protracted as to render the game unplayable, I'm content to consider the process 'stable'.
Oh, also I sprinted through Riddick, so expect a review in the next few days.
