Games and me.

I guess I could say I've played games for a long time. I think the first actual game I played was Candyland, and I remember the pretty colors and the simple rules. I also started playing video games at a very young age, while having a Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) in my house when I was little. I remember playing the original Super Mario Brothers and Duck Hunter as a kid. It was rather fun and I enjoyed playing and trying to shoot down the ducks.


Although, when I got older, the games grew more complex. Switching our simple board games for complex ones, partaking in more complicated card games, and the video games got more advanced. Playing card games in school as social activities, playing video games which seemed "cool" at the time, and continuing on with more "adult" board and social gathering games (like Pictionary, Parcheeze, and Risk)

I've always considered myself a video gamer. Granted, I've learned over the years from having an NES to newer system has made me come to the realization that newer games have become easier. Looking back at older video games has made me realize that older video games are not really that forgiving.

  1. 3 I think you have some pretty good ideas that may not be fully developed. That however could be do to the limit of the word count. It's a good start for a first post.

  2. 4 - I leave a four because I am very interested in what is going on behind the scenes in her writing. It brought me to a place that i have in remembrance when I was younger and has a illusionistic quality... a dream like quality. The main reason this was not a 5 is because of a few grammar mistakes or harder sentences that may need a little more structure. I have a problem with compounding sentences either.

    The writing is well organized and there are good details in the explanation. There are a few errors like "Although, when I got older, the games grew more complex." should be "When I got older, the games grew more complex."
