The Original Vidiot
I am the original vidiot!I'm the true video game addict.I have played almost every video game known to man, and still quest for the ultimate video game experience.
Sure, I played the old home versions. I remember drooling at my friends futuristic Magnavox Odyssey, think "wow, now we can play PONG at home". We played Intellivision until the little controllers were completely destroyed.
I am that kid that spent his entire allowance at the arcade in the attempt that I could set a new high score on Space Invaders and type in my 3 letter mark GOD.
I flew Red Baron, and had blisters on my thumb from Defender. My friend Chris Schaffer and I would play Mattel Football until his mom would freak out and take it away. Chris was unstoppable, and still owns that same hand held game to this day, and it still works great.
I was the original video game test pilot. Bally and Midway would come into my favorite arcade "Galaxy Games" in Palatine Illinois, and have me test their latest releases. Some where cool, some where not. What a life.
I hated Dragon's Lair, but Gorf and Tron ruled. Why did all the chics love Centipede? Was it that cool new track ball. Star Castle was a favorite.
You name it, I owned them all. I had the Commodore, the Nintendo, playstation, and even game systems that nobody had like NEC Turbo Graffix, which was way ahead of it's time. They actually used a credit card cartridge for the game and it also played in their full color hand held version. The graphics on the hand held were superior to the new Game Boy Advanced, and that was 10 years ago.
In my opinion nobody can beat the XBOX! XBOX live has taken multi-player gaming out of the arcade and into your living room.
My goal here is to provide an honest critique of the latest releases for the Microsoft XBOX gaming console, with a focus on XBOX Live enabled games. If your into video games and love to play online, than you have found a great source of information.
Greetings fellow vidiots!
