We still have our PS2, and for the reasons you mentioned above, we still play it. Being able to save multiple games on the PS2 memory flash drives may not be ideal, but as you said, games for PS2 can be found for extremely cheap, and most games for PS2 are still very viable options. I enjoy...

I still remember when the original, old school, huge, gray Nintendo Gameboy came out. My cousin got one, and would let my brother and I play games on it. Shortly after, my brothers and I were each given Gameboy Colors (Gasp!! Video games in color that you can take with you! Oh, how kids these...

I am very surprised by this figure, especially when today's media pressures us to have the newest/best/fastest/shiniest things. I suppose dial up Internet is better than no Internet at all, however, with as slow as it is I wonder if it would be more worthwhile to go to a local free WiFi hotspot...

The gaming industry is going to do whatever possible to accomplish their goal, which is to make money. That being said, I think marketing techniques still target younger kids, especially with Nintendo Wii, 3ds, and similar gaming. One way we save on gaming is trying out a new game before...

Here we are in October, only a little over one month away from the biggest sale season of the year, Thanksgiving weekend. Big stores such as Walmart and Best Buy as well as smaller video game stores such as Game Stop and others often have Black Friday sales on gaming consoles and games. Are the...

I am with you, Sims 3 all the way! I love making Sims, building and remodeling their homes, building the relationships between them, etc. I could binge play Sims 3 all weekend long with little to no regrets!

I am awful at Tetris. I play against others on XBOX 360, and consistently lose over and over again. Even so, I totally love playing it! I will get my butt kicked all day long, and still play, simply because it's fun and I enjoy it.

I think anytime an activity gets in the way of one's daily life (such as your college roommate), it has crossed the threshold into addiction territory. Are there times where gamers will binge play their shiny new game they just purchased? Of course. (Guilty as charged.) However, gaming all day...

I always feel discouraged when I take old games that I'm done playing with, and trade them in for store credit at the local video game stores. I always feel ripped off. I often think to myself, 'How can this game be worth $20 when I just bought it for $40 a couple of weeks ago?' How do you...

My family can be pretty competitive, therefore a family get-together usually includes a board game or card game of some kind. I personally love Monopoly, Payday, and Scrabble, but we often play Risk or the card game Munchkin, which has an RPG-feel but is definitely more low-commitment. I also...

The first game I played on a computer was actually at elementary school on the dinosaur-age computers with floppy discs, and it was the original Oregon Trail. I loved that game! The first PC game I really remember getting into as a kid at home was Heroes of Might and Magic. I could still happily...

Anyone else addicted to The Sims? I love playing Sims 3 for PC. I could go months without playing it, and then binge play for an entire weekend, creating an entire neighborhood with generations of Sims in just a couple of days. I also have The Sims Deluxe Edition and the Sims 2 with a couple...

For Christmas when I was 5, Santa brought my brother and I a Super Nintendo console with 1 game, Super Mario Brothers. We played as a family, sharing turns. My favorite games to play on the SNES were Super Mario Cart and Donkey Kong. If I had an SNES today I'd still pull it out to play those!
