Welcome back to AusGamers! We're hoping each and every one of you had a safe and happy Christmas (or Festivus) with all the gaming presents you could have hoped for, and managed to ring in the New Year in style.

We're officially back at the AusGamers helm starting today, and while it'll take a little while for regular news to pick up, we'll be doing some house-keeping in the form of a handful of outstanding reviews alongside previews to kick off 2010 (stay tuned for our first, BioShock 2, coming soon), and of course, we're looking at a few features to flesh out the early part of this year, and to also bring 2009 to a complete close.

We will, of course be bringing back regular sections such as the weekly games release schedule, our weekly wrap, over-the-weekend catch-up, weekend discussion as well as introducing even more to the AusGamers editorial fray moving forward.

Of course, your suggestions are always welcome, so feel free to let us know what you'd like to see here on the site beyond the above, and happy new year from all of us here at AusGamers and Mammoth Media.
