In the last 17 years I've gone from having to be careful about what I play in front of my kids to getting my rear-end handed to me by them in most games. (Sometimes the Old Man can surprise them though. It's not like when I used to play against MY Dad and he didn't know which end of the Atari Joystick was up...)
@Julian I don't play video games much at all maybe once or twice a year I will bust out the old school Nintendo and play some old Tecmo Bowl football. My daughter is asking for a plaaystation VR for Christmas what are your overall opinions on this since you have it? We do not currently have a PS4 so I will have to get that as well is it worth the investment in all that? Also do you feel the Move controllers are a necessity to get the full experience? I had that about buying a suped up PC and getting the ryft or vive instead just not sure.
My neighbor had it last Xmas, I tried it, and just had to have it...so I went out and bought it! So I think I'm biased! LOL The PS VR graphics are not as good as the PC version (name isn't coming to me), but it is also plug and play and easy to use. The move controllers are a necessity! I have the PS4 Pro, VR, 2 Move controllers, 2 regular controllers, and Far Pointe with Rifle....
This is exactly what I used to do, then my time became more important....so I stopped building PCs and got lazy! LOL I don't get to play much at all....so a PS4 really is more than I need....but I splurged....
That's insame, when I pc gamed I had a 56 k modem and less memory than a cell phone from 5 years ago. The x box one x is liquid cooled btw.
. I remember how mad my dad would get at me if he was working online and I picked up the telephone. Look at us now . Look at us now with crazy high definition and fidelity gaming.
Com 64. Trs80 and the break through Tandy 1000Ah yes the 56k dial up days heh. I'll never forget hearing it dial out for the first time. Tripped me out knowing we were on "the net"
Our first PC was a Commodore 64. My first console was a ColecoVision and it had the craziest controllers ever. Each game came with its own card that you slide into the controller. That was your 'button mapping' lol. It was way ahead of its time. Later on had an Atari and of course the NES. Watching 8 bit gaming go to 16 bit we thought we were in the future
Commodore 64 with the 5 1/4 in floppy drive was my first computer too! Then I got a daisy wheel printer for printing term papers.
Those were the days. Lol! Had to love those 7” diskettes on the trs-80.
Oh man!! The Trash-80’s bring back some memories of 7th grade computer class.
Blast from past. We used to put in the game disk that was a word based game like dungeons and dragons. Lol
Which game is that? I've always liked space exploration type games, that sounds right up my alley.Anyone into space games? I play Elite Dangerous and Star Citizen. Currently having a good time testing the latest alpha test build of Star Citizen 3.0 PTU.
Crashed a huge freighter last night I filled with tons of diamonds and biowaste cargo. Learned the hard way not to try and fly a massive ship like a fighter so I ended upside down wedged in some rock cliffs on a moon lol. Nearest station was 84 km, so yea that was gonna be a walk
