So this week’s posts are both going to be inspiration posts.
So these days I pretty much exclusively play smash. It’s not because I don’t like
other games, it’s partly because I’m so busy and smash is something that I can
work at and get better. Bust last weekend I played super Mario bros 3 with a
buddy for the first time in years, I can’t remember how long it’s been since I touched
that game, oh did I mention we played it on an original NES? Because that was awesome.
Any way we played through the whole game in 1 sitting and I just had so much
fun. It reminded me of how much I really love video games in general. Growing up
I played a ton of video games, my favorite systems are the GameCube and the
Play station 2, I had so many games for each of them and I beat all if not a
majority of them. There’s something so magical about video games, especially
adventure games such as Legend of Zelda or Kingdom Hearts. For me at least, it’s
almost like an interactive movie, they let you take part in a quest and not
just view it, you aid it and you complete it, it puts you in this environment
where you are the most important person in that world and sometimes you even
get so caught up in the story you lose track of real life. Some may think that’s
a bad thing but I don’t video games are a way to escape the stresses of reality
and be a total badass while doing it. It’s funny, I never thought that video games
would still be so relevant in my life today. Even if I don’t play nearly as
much of them as I used to in my younger days they still remain a constant part
of my life. I mean I follow competitive smash and right about it regularly now ha-ha.
It’s no wonder that young adult me would have a video game based blog, even
after all these years
