Oh yay, more threads about sharing the intimate details of our personal lives!
Hahah, sorry. Feeling oddly rambunctious right now. Late night crazies, maybe. Anyway, where do I begin?
Started with those kid games, like ones by Fisher Price, on our old Win...98? Yeah, I think it was a 98. I loved that computer. We apparently had an NES for a while, and the games I specifically remember are Kirby's Adventure, Mario Bros., and...some Bugs Bunny game. Bugs Bunny's Birthday Blowout, or something.
The latter game traumatized me. If you asked me why today, looking back I would not have any idea. Maybe the image that popped up on screen just looked scary in my little-kid mind (It's actually kinda a cute game). Anyway, the game over screen (which, oddly, is not shown in TSR's sprite archive for that game) gave me nightmares for...maybe five or so years? A long time. It was just his facial expression I guess.
My most fond memory was when I first got a PS1. Spyro the Dragon. That was my freaking passion. I still love that game (and the next two titles to come out after that). I still am fond of Spyro...well, kinda. Just not a big fan of Skylanders. I love the concept, I guess it's just too expensive and media-sensationalized. I'm hoping that they'll pass him off to another gaming company soon. Spyro seems to be quite a "hot potato," constantly being passed around. Like STDs.
I'm sorry. That had to be said.
