Old Video games


#898: Playing old school video games

 

While playing on the newest console is fun, it doesn’t compare to playing the retro games. When the GameCube came out, I was only about ten when I got it. Then, it was the newest console. Today, it is one of the classical consoles. I had Super Smash Bros., Mario Cart, NHL 2002, Pac Man 3D, etc. a few years ago, I brought the game console our cabin in Eureka Montana. Whenever it is raining down there, me, my brother, and my sister are on it playing our old time favorite games. In the family, I was the best at Mario cart, and NHL 2002, while my brother Adam was the best at Super Smash Bros. My sister was good at the Racing games, but wasn’t quite as good as me and Adam. It was always fun to play my old games, because of how often I don’t get to. Another old console that is fun to play on is my original Xbox. It was old, but it had some of the best games on it. At first, the only game I had was Battlefront II. It was a Star wars game where you could fly in space, be clone troopers, and sometimes be a Jedi. We got the console from my Dads friend from work. His kids were done with it, so he offered it to us. The game was preloaded onto the console, so we always could play it. It is still at our home under the living room TV. The game was originally released in 2005, we got the console and game shortly after 2006. In the same year, we got a new game for the Xbox; it was Need for Speed 3. It was from 1998. It was the oldest game we had, but it was still a very fun game to play. At first, we had a hard time winning the races and catching the racers, but after about a week, we got really good, and worked through the levels. We would sometimes prefer to play on these old school games than the new Call of Duty, Halo, or Just Cause. These games were so different from the new games because they had their own type of story line, the new ones were following along the same line. This is why the old games were awesome.
