Top 10 Games of 2012
Every year in video games is filled with exceptional games, some years have better games than others, but overall there is always a collection of standout game titles that turn out to be must play games for any true gamer. Here is my top 10 games of 2012.
Hitman: Absolution
I never played any of the previous Hitman games. They have a bit of a cult following for the bad ass bald Agent 47 character and unique gameplay style. For some reason the previous entries didn’t appeal to me or maybe at the time of their release there were too many other great games vying for my attention.
Dishonored
In a time when big game publishers are more concerned with cashing in on well established franchise with their annual or bi-annual sequel, it is becoming more and more rare for new original ideas in gaming to get developed and released. Dishonored is one of the few original intellectual properties for 2013.
Assassin’s Creed III
The Assassin’s Creed franchise is fantastic. I’ve been hooked on it since the first and completed each one. However I have felt that they are releasing them too often. I get the publisher, Ubisoft, is trying to cash in on the popularity of it, however it will succeed more with some breathing room and anticipation between releases. I didn’t play Brotherhood until about 6 months after its release, and the same with Revelations.
My dailymile 2012 Summary
It’s that time again, the new year is here and time to reflect on how we did with our fitness and health in 2012, and we want to happen in 2013. Here is my dailymile 2012 summary. The annual summary that shows off your logged miles and activity for the year. In looking back at my dailymile 2011 summary from last year, there is a pretty big difference.
Top 10 Music Albums of 2012
This year I feel like 2012 was a solid year for new music. There was a wide selection of new music and artists across many genres that I discovered and fully enjoyed over the last 12 months. Here is my top 10 music albums of 2012.
Vegan Lentil Chili
Last night I made a big pot of delicious lentil chili that turned out amazingly yummy. I saw the original vegan lentil chili recipe over on the Whole Foods Market site, but I made some adjustments to it which I feel enhanced the flavors and made it even better. As a vegetarian, lentils provide a great source of protein and fiber, in addition to being really healthy for our bodies. This is a very simple recipe that leaves plenty of room to experiment in making your own favorite style.
Lentil and Kale Veggie Salad
A few nights ago I made a delicious salad using black lentils, fresh kale, and veggies. I was really experimenting with what we had a home along with a few fresh ingredients from the farmers market. I had a package of bamboo roots from the asian market which are a little like artichoke hearts or hearts of palm but firmer, I combined it with farm fresh carrots, cucumbers, and feta cheese to make for a nice earthy meal.
