2014 in review

The WordPress.com stats helper monkeys prepared a 2014 annual report for this blog.

Here’s an excerpt:

A New York City subway train holds 1,200 people. This blog was viewed about 4,600 times in 2014. If it were a NYC subway train, it would take about 4 trips to carry that many people.

My favourite gaming Christmas Memory by MrLuvvaLuvva

My favourite gaming memory comes from the Christmas of 1995.

1995 the year that the world was introduced to a cowboy who befriended a spaceman, Brad Pitt found his wife’s head in a box (SPOILER!) and we found out that the thing Batman was missing was Batnipples!

It was a glorious year and as an avid SEGA gamer (growing up on a steady diet of Master System and MegaDrive games) there was only one gift I wanted from the fatman, a SEGA Saturn! It was literally the only gift I asked for that year.

Dear Santa…I NEED a Saturn…that is all!

This is what I wanted to see come December 25th

This week at LuvvaLuvva Towers (22-28/12/2014)

Just because Christmas has come doesn’t mean we’re stopping our march forward with posts and streams – this week has seen us near the finish line of Christmas 2014 posts and Boxing Day saw us begin our short series of favourite Christmas gaming memories (thanks for the submission Xcellante!) – which will continue until New Years – afterwards we will be discussing our game of the year choices for your entertainment!

When the new year comes we will be implementing some new initiatives to make the blog even better!

Happy New Year guys!

My favourite gaming Christmas Memory by Xcellante

SEASON GREETINGS readers of this huge and overly popular blog (or so I’m told) created, edited and presented to you by the good folks of LuvvaLuvva Towers. Every so often Mr Double L (that’s his bra size) lets me loose from my basement prison to either rub my proverbial nose into his newest console or latest game release before tricking me to clean my nose with a chloroform soaked tissue, securing the ankle shackle, throwing me a year’s supply of bread and fix the faulty faucet before slamming the door shut.

He seems to get me every time with that, don’t you Double L?

Merry Christmas!

Merry Christmas readers! Have an awesome e-card as an extra present (on top of this post) Tomorrow (Boxing Day) will see the start of our series of reader Christmas memories and the New Year will see MrJohnSherry and I discuss our game of the year.

Exciting times over the next week and a bit! Enjoy your turkey, sweets and mince pies but most of all – enjoy your Christmas.

Local multiplayer games you should be playing tomorrow!

Hopefully Santa will give you everything you want and that at least one gift is a video game. Presumably everyone will have family visiting tomorrow and this means that your gaming time will be severely limited for fear of being “anti-social”!

Fear not dear reader!

There is an easy way of getting around this is by whipping out those local multiplayer titles that allow you to sociable while still partaking in that gaming goodness!

Here’s a few titles you should be playing tomorrow with granny, granddad, niece, nephew, son, daughter or wife – anyone who darkens your door should be given a controller and sat in front of the TV to play!

Santa’s greatest cameos

Well this week is the week that a particular fat man will visit houses near you (maybe even your house, if you’ve been good this year) and deliver those delicious, delicious gifts!

Houses are not the only things that he visits, oh no, he is making a mint on his image rights for a very long time – in fact he is quickly becoming a video game trope – but we love his interactive cameos so much we have devised a list…and here it is! Enjoy!

This week at LuvvaLuvva Towers (15-21/12/2014)

And so we have arrived! Christmas week! YAY! I’m super excited for Christmas (because I’m a giant child who still get excited about these things; but it is also the time that the internet stops.

BUT NOT US!

We will post on schedule as usual! What will change however is that we will be posting our favourite  Christmas gaming memories stories – so do keep visiting the page for top-quality content (since when have we produced top-quality content?) during your holidays and leave us comments (we will endeavour to reply).

So here we go, the penultimate recap of the year! We want to extend a giant thank you to our readers all 4,500 of you – you guys are the best and without your support there would literally be no blog – again THANK YOU ALL!

Check out what we’ve done this week and stayed tuned for next year, we have a few ideas to make this blog even better!

Merry Christmas everybody! Be safe and keep gaming!

The Ghosts of Christmas Past

….Where Did You Go, My Lovely?

There have been a few games, of the years gone by, where we have got hyped beyond all belief, only for the games to not only disappear – but the studios remain completely silent on their whereabouts. Here, we will look at the games we should have had a choice of playing this holiday season yet are notable in their absence.
