FUN AND GAMES - VIDEO GAME PLAYING
Today, the family got together and shared a common interest - playing video games. Now, I'm old enough to remember Atari, Intellivision and the like, while today's generation employs the likes of mega-bit technology with the Xbox-360, PS2 (or is it PS3 now) and Nintendo's Wii. Yet, some family games work for all generations with their timeless plots and characters.
Now, this is not a plug or a review per se, but the whole Mario Bros. line-up is as enjoyable today as it was decades ago. Watching today's youth deftly maneuver Mario, Luigi and Yoshi through and around countless obstacles in their quest to face Donkey Kong, Wario and Bowser bring back great memories of playing these titles years ago (albeit on far less advanced platforms).
I guess what I'm saying is that with all the distractions of everyday life out there, it's kind of cool to find an escape into fantasy and have it reach across all ages. Anytime you can spend with your family just sharing good times is a major plus. And if the cost of all those different games has you a little gun shy, don't worry. Try vpgames.com for all your video game needs. It's fast, comparatively inexpensive and offers a huge selection of titles to choose from. If you are looking for accessories for whichever game system you prefer, this site has lots to look at.
Enjoy your "youth"no matter how old you are!!! And say hello to Peach when you finally help Mario rescue her once again.
