Let me start this post by stating that I am 41 years young. I used to play video games down at the arcade after my paper route. Then one day I remember my dad came home with a ColecoVision. Years later a Nintendo was purchased. I played that Damn thing until, well, until it wouldn't play anymore. That is when we became MaCGyver trying to get it to play. We would cram two cartridges into the machine, one on top of the other to apply pressure to the contacts so it would read the game. We would take the game out of the console and blow on it and the list goes on. All methods would eventually fail us at some point.
I kinda gave up on video games especially when they came out with the dual analog controllers. I just couldn't wrap my head around the concept at the time. Well fast forward to about two years ago when I purchased a ps3. I practiced and practiced with the controllers all the while feeling like an old fart because little kids where smoking me on these newer games. Well I finally got the hang of it and I manage to hold my own when I get around to playing once in awhile. It is absolutely amazing how far the graphics quality has come and the fact that you can play against people all over the world.
Maybe one day I'll decide to grow up, huh.
