August 2025 Gaming
It's nice when a month of gaming comes together in unexpected ways is better than you expected it to be. I was surprised by July's gaming numbers, considering I was off. August came around and I was going to be missing one Sunday due to a no-ship math trade (I received some money and one Final Girl film for five games I was never going to play again).
