I have been playing video games from the beginning. Before there was a term for people who loved to play video games. I had an Atari, then cam Nintendo, Super Nintendo, game Cube, PS 1, Xbox,Xbox 360, Xbox One, I’m from the days when games were hard. There are still games i haven’t beaten. When there was no save points, you collected lives and hope you made it to the end. Every level Had a boss to pass, each one harder then the next. There were no save points you played all the way through, and if you died you had a 10 second count down to continue. I’m from the day of Saturday wake and play. Spiking the controller off the ground when you lost. There weren’t million dollar tournament winners or kids making millions of dollars streaming there game play. When save data slots came in, it was a game changer, but only if you remembered to save before you shut the system off. I have been gaming since the beginning. this is my tribute to all the gamers out there
