Ha!! I have more!! I really like playing video games!!

ahh see you know the series names, but I am talking about the original games that started it all way back in the mid-late 1980's. Have you ever played those? I am sure if have you looked at them and probably thought.. "how primitive".

When I was ten, the famous Atari 2600 hadn't even been invented! My first computer had a whopping 5K of RAM, that's 5K, not megs or gigs! My first calculator was the size of a paperback book.

Yeah, kids these days have so many tech toys to play with....

Haha, I did (though I'm 20). Did any of you guys play Sega Genesis? That was my only system all through the '90's. I only had a few games too; Mega Bomberman, Vectorman, and the Original Sonic games. And you couldn't save these games. I remember my parents playing Sonic for hours and the three-year-old me would run up and hit the system's 'restart' button to hear that "Sega!" audio clip

Then in 2002, my family got a PS2. The first games we got were "Jak and Dexter" and FFX. Can you imagine how blown my mind was!? Haha

Fourth Grade's LEAP test is this Monday!!
It seems as if it came to fast and it also seems as if yesterday was
August 11 2009.(first day of third grade)
That feeling sure (to me) feels weird.

Oh yes I played tons of Sega Genesis. I never owned one though. My friend did. I was the one with the Super Nintendo, every time one of us came over to the others house it was like an unspoken rule that we bring our respective systems.

We had both a Sega Genesis and Super Nintendo in the house, but I always preferred Sega for Mortal Kombat 3 and Sonic 2, among other games.
Then my father thought it would be a good idea to invest in the Phillips CD-i. What a fail that was


I'm not a cynic; I just like to play Devil's Advocate once in a while.

My first console was a Sega MegaDrive. Lol. Compared to todays consoles, the graphics were crap, but I did enjoy playing on it at the time

I still have a fully functional 2 MB hard-drive, 20 Kg in weight. With some adapters, an old 386 PC and one 750W separate source to power it up, I was able to read it's contents using Norton Commander. There were some lessons on DOS usage on it still readable , so I guess it was from a school or College.

PS: Sega + Sonic, that was some fun time.
