It's been awhile since I've updated this blog here, but here's a short recap of what's going on at the Opinionated Gamers. We made it to our first anniversary, and I think that the format has worked well for everyone, both contributors and readers...
First, we've started a series of "roundtables" where we pick a gaming-related topic and debate it amongst ourselves.
Recent topics include:
Randomness in games: http://opinionatedgamers.com/2012/01/26/patrick-korner-in-pr...
What's with all the new games?! http://opinionatedgamers.com/2012/01/31/opinionated-gamers-r...
Is Crowdsourcing good for gaming? http://opinionatedgamers.com/2012/02/06/opinionated-gamers-r...
We're also still reviewing games on the OG:

Over the past few weeks, the Opinionated Gamers have been covering the SPIEL fair in Essen starting with preview pieces prior to the fair as well as daily reports from at least four of our writers who were in Germany last week to see the fair first hand.
Link to the coverage: http://opinionatedgamers.com/essen-2011/
In the coming weeks, we will be posting First Impressions on the games, followed by full reviews once we have had enough time to play the new games!
Also, in the past week, Mary Prasad talks about Halloween themed gaming:
