Confession

I have a confession. I love video games and have since I was a kid. I woulda kicked your ass at the arcade back in '78 playin Galaga, Pac Man, Donkey Kong or any pinball machine. My favorite back in the day......Space invaders. Oh how I loved that game! I would beg my mother for a couple of quarters and then ride my bike all the way to the 7-11 to play. Two quarters would keep me going for hours. Yup, I was that good. ;)

I beat every Mario Bros game made up till about 10 years ago. I will school you in Crash Bandicoot, Cart Racing or the regular games.

Madden is a piece of cake; too easy. And Tiger Woods is no match for me on the pixelated greens.

My new obsession: Call of Duty - Black Ops. Its the one series of games I can't conquer. And it pisses me off. Plus there are zombies. I.Hate.Zombies.

I will beat it. And I have until Christmas to get proficient so I can school my kid's ass while she's home on leave. She's a flippen pro at this game series. I really just want to hold my own. Its embarrasing when I can't play as well as her. lol

If you haven't seen a video game since the 80's or even the 90's take a look at how far they've come. Unreal visually.


I wanna win!!

  1. I haven't played video games in so long, it's shameful- my kids regularly beat me, grrr.

    On the other hand, they still look to me to wire everything up & set the clocks in the components, so being a geek hasn't made me totally useless to 'em yet!

  2. I'll admit that I love these games to. I was playing Modern Warfare 2 until I beat it, many a late night and blurry eyes. I can't wait to get my hands on Black Ops...

  4. My son and the ex play these kind of games. Last video game I played was "Dragon Warrior". I'm not coordinated enough for them. I did download "Plants vs. Zombies" which is fun. I'm kinda partial to zombies, being one and all. ;)

  5. That's awesome...I'll admit to buying the same game - I just haven't had a chance to crack it open yet. It does look awesome, so I'm hoping this week sometime.
