And it was soooooooo exciting, everyone had to have it!!!
You people are old! I remember being 5 and Sega Genesis was the big thing! But Atari was already extinct at the beginning of my days.
Go eat your milk and cookies and shut the heck up!

Here's another classic for you - Intellivision. It had those slide-in covers that went over the controllers, and I wore the suckers out on some of those games.

And was it Colecovision that came out with Donkey Kong? That was when the graphics started getting better. My best friend was the coolest kid in our neighborhood because he got that first.

First there was Atari 2600 with Tank and Pac Man, then Atari 5200 came out with Ms Pac Man. Can't forget about that one.

No, I just had a competitive dad who would buy a new system every time I started kicking his butt.
I bought a new Gameboy for my 5 year old's birthday, and the graphics are really pretty good.
I love having two boys - we looked at dirt bikes this weekend

I was just about to run a poll on video gaming. I have a playstation2 that my niece bought me cause i was using hers so much. i find that Xbox is more violent cause it is geared for adults. plus not enuff games. ( that will change with time) Sony will have a new generation machine late 2005.
My favorite game is "Kingdom Hearts,"
believe i'm at 35 hours now.
ya gotta just love Sora.

I love having a son too!!! Well except for the period of time that he felt he had to watch out over me and would try to boss me around.
He's going to go to MMI in Orlando next July. I hope he builds me a bike someday!!!
