Simple question. I'm sure we all got into games for different reasons. What got you interested in playing video games? When did you start playing them?
Me personally I started playing when I got my first NES back when I was a kid. I didn't talk to alot of other kids back then. I was bullied alot so video games were something I could do by myself. Eventually I met some friends who were equally into video games. Ever since then I always seemed to find myself around people who were into video games. Now that I work in the IT office at my university most of the people working there are into video games. If there's nothing else we can talk about there's always video games.
I love how video games evolved from games like pong where you're just competing for high score to games that have real story lines now.
