Here's a little bit of my gaming history for you all.
Here's a little bit of my gaming history for you all.
First gaming console I ever owned... bought it from a garage sale for $25. Playing Sonic 2 was like a dream come true.
Christmas gift and boy, was it a good one. Frogger at the time provided endless hours of fun until I got some more games. Pokemon Blue... need I say more?
Took me forever to convince my parents I should have this thing. I remember going to buy the Donkey Kong Jungle Green edition and the store clerk at Target tried to convince me to get a PlayStation. What a turd that guy was... DK64 and all of the other games I ended up getting were AWESOME.
My old friend who moved to Japan decided to give me his PlayStation. I don't know why, but it was a very nice gesture. I never bought any games for it, but I was able to get some from a friend who had way too many for his own good. NASCAR 2000 was a lot of fun at the time... I honestly don't know how or why...
Got the Metroid Prime Platinum bundle... yes, I was late in the game to get one of these, but not too late. Still got to experience some great titles like Metroid Prime, the Windwaker, Twilight Princess, and more...
First console I specifically saved money for. Ended up buying my 360 when the Marvel/Forza bundle came out. Although I don't think I gotten the most of out my 360 like my previous consoles, I still love having this guy around because it's perfect for a quick game of Call of Duty or some arcade titles. I look forward to the next Xbox... whenever that thing decides to reveal itself...
Bought this guy a few years ago after deciding I really wanted to start getting into retro gaming. My main reason was because I wanted to relive a lot of childhood games that I always played at my friends' houses, but never got to play in the comfort of my own home. Needless to say, I have a solid collection of games that I now have to look back on and remember how awesome it was to be a kid.
Yeah, so this isn't exactly a game console... but I bought Braid from the Mac App Store. That counts right?
I usually boot this guy up in BootCamp if I'm feelin' the urge to play Counter-Strike or Age of Empires III.
Actually, I just have an iPod touch. Never thought I would get into gaming on my iPod, but it was a perfect way for me to play some games on the road. I even managed to get pretty deep into Final Fantasy I, a game I have always had interest in playing. Pretty glad I ended up with that game in my collection.
