Today's random thing stuck in my head: The song One Final Effort from Halo 3. Like it or hate it, I think Halo 3 might've been one of the biggest moments in gaming history. The excitement seemed to extend beyond just the gamers, and for a moment we were all united. That and I guess Pokemon Go. Shame we dont have more moments like that these days.

Gaming seems to be divided these days. Market saturation perhaps? Too many games and too many platforms maybe?

Lots of differing tastes right for a single game to have such a unifying effect I think.
