Oy Vey
ACK!! It can't be that many days since I last posted. Fuckers.
Anyway...my newest great-idea is to make up for the last 20 years of not being a video game player. In a flash of inspiration, I figured I'd just buy a game console and a few games and have at it. Who knew the fantastically expensive AMBR computer I bought last year has the video graphics card of a small digital watch. Now I'm left to decide either to upgrade my graphics card and system memory or just fa-gid-abou-dit and buy a PS2 or XBox.
I'll fess up to becoming a "Simpson Hit & Run" addict of late - on the Gamecube.
My niece loves to play Simpsons Road Rage on PS2, and I have to admit, I'm looking forward to visiting next month so I can play it again too.
I say get a game system. So much fun.
We got the old Atari games. You just plug the joystick into your TV and the games are built into the unit. Remember 'Breakout' in Mark & Pam's bedroom?
We have the PS2 plugged into one side of our TV, and the original Atari 2600 into the other side. Pitfall and Donkey Kong don't have the graphics that Grand Theft Auto or Simpson's Road Rage, but both have their entertainment value. I'd recommend either of these two systems (or anything in between.)
