My parents are too old and they didn-t have videogames in their time.

My uncle however loved to play the SNES games like Bubble Bobble, Megaman, and Super Mario World.

Why does my mind feel so happy?

My mom started playing video games in the 80's. It started with a couple for the Tandy Color Computer (one was Demolition Derby), then a short stint on the Atari 7800 (the 2 i remember her playing were Choplifter and robotron 2084), until it messed up. Then the NES. Her fav's are Bubble Bobble (so she wasn't the only one who liked it eh? :P ), Galaga, Gauntlet, Tetris, Dr. Mario, 2 diffrent casino games, the 1st Zelda, Spelunker, Puzznic, the Bomberman and Adventures of Lolo series, Adventure island, and a few others. Didn't stop there. With the SNES Zelda again, Super Bomberman, more casino ones, Bomberman for the Genesis, Even Bomberman and some casino games for the PS1. And she still plays them, allthough not that much anymore.
And to think she's in her low 70's now.

My mom used to play a lot of Atari 2600, she said her favorite game was centipede, so yea. She's 42 right now, so she doesn't agree with a lot of games nowadays, "Too much damned violence and drugs in games."

My mum played pac-man, that is all. My dad is more of a ''Dammit son when I was your age I was out playing football!'' kind of guy.

Also just remembered, my mum used to play split screen with me on the game 'Small soldiers' on the PS1.

My dad was a old school gamer, Galactia, pong, pac man. Nowadays, he plays Bioshock, Doom 3, Dead Space, and junk like that. My mom and me, we play spore. She'll be getting a copy, more likely to invade my planets and shit.

My mother was the self-proclaimed queen of Space Invaders and Ms. Pacman. When she was a teenager playing those games at the arcade, she would spend her entire allowance on those two games.

When I was just a very young child, I would play Warcraft II with my father online. We were always allies and I never dared to play against him because he became a master at it in a matter of days. My father would also play Battlefield 1942 as I would wake up every morning hearing Japanese planes bombing Wake Island.

If I ever have kids, I would introduce them my all time favourite games: Warcraft II and Baldur's Gate I & II. I would tell them that Warcraft II was the game that got me into videogames and one that lead to the fifteenth World of Warcraft expansion. As for Baldur's Gate, I would tell them that the original saga (1998-2001) were the most advanced role-playing games in their time.

My guess would be that they would reject them and go off to play another 3-D first person shooter game set during World War II.

Back in the day, my mom used to love "Galaga", and my dad is still into gaming a bit. I remember back when he was playing "Myst", which still to this day I think is one of the best puzzle games to date.

I myself am also a huge nostalgia gamer, and once even got 423,700 points in "Galaga", yoink!

Thanks aplenty to Phobotech for the great user icon.
