I have been playing video games since I was five years old, when my father surprised me with my very own Nintendo Entertainment System Control Deck. It was the best night of my life. Maybe I could’ve had more, and better ones at that, but I was busy playing video games. Yeah, sorry about your accidental teenage pregnancy. I spent those years dealing with a different sort of warp whistle and pipe.
Since then, I have watched this industry grow from its humble origins, distancing itself from its near-death experience following the 1983 Video Game crash. I have witnessed every milestone and fumble, from the ‘90s Console Wars, to Joe Lieberman, to CD-ROM technology, to emulation, to Jack Thompson, to GamerGate, to Ubisoft declaring, once and for all, “no, mine.” I’ve seen Nintendo consoles evolve from toasters to cubes to tablets. I rubbed my nose raw from burying it in obnoxious magazine pages.
These days, the games are—eh, not as good as they used to be. I find myself diving a lot deeper into my backlog than I do the Steam New Release pages. A game has to be especially great, or eventful, to get my attention. Even then, my aging RTX 2060 computer might not output the best performance.
I’ll always love talking about them, though. Talking, and especially writing about video games, is a tradition dating as far back as that first NES. And having a website allows me to continue that tradition. Except instead of terrible scrawl inside a Trapper Keeper, I can present it in HTML, CSS, and readable text for all you potential audience members out there. Let&rdsquo;s keep it going, then. Let’s talk about the games.
