Wow! What a comeback, Tony. Where do I beg...Whew! Wow! What a comeback, Tony. Where do I begin? I guess I'll share w/ you my first major video game system - the COLECOVISION! (I'm not sure I spelled it correctly, but oh well). My parents bought this system for me when I was around 11 or 12. It was a Christmas gift. Little did I know (until months later) that they had been staying up late everynight playing the games! No wonder they kicked my you-know-what at Ladybug and Donkeykong! I don't think that was right, do you? I mean making a little kid feel like a loser when they had weeks of experience up on me? That's just wrong! Another game we had was called Journey. In that game you had to go from room to room (each room being a maze of sorts) in a mystical place and retrieve special items from that room before the dragon appeared (actually we called him "Boogerman" b/c it looked like a green blog of nothing) and killed you. Journey and Ladybug were our favorites. Ladybug was a lot like Pacman. We enjoyed this game system as a family for years - at least until my little brother came along and thought you had to pay to play. He dropped a quarter inside the game slot and it never worked again after that! BROTHERS! ;)Christyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18101046996892349364noreply@blogger.com
