Game Consoles Bring Back Memories |

One of my favorite games growing up was Monopoly. My brother, sister and I would sit at the kitchen table on the weekends and play for hours. My parents would play occasionally, but mostly it was a time where the three of us would play and fight over who would become the banker. It wasn't that long ago, when I noticed that I could get Monopoly for our favorite game consoles. I happen to be a huge fan of video games and so is my husband and we tend to buy all the latest game consoles when they come out along with any new games that we will enjoy. Our friends laugh at us when we say that we're going to buy the newest game consoles for our children, because they know that even though the children will enjoy the game consoles, the truth is, my husband and I are bigger gamers than the children.
When I saw EA Monopoly: Here & Now World Edition that I found at Home Online Direct who can be found online by visiting www.homeonlinedirect.com, I knew I had to have it, so I ordered it for what happens to be my favorite of all our game consoles. I've been a fan of Nintendo video games for years, and the thought of being able to play the Monopoly game brings back so many memories. After I ordered the game, I called my sister to see which game consoles they have in their home and asked if she felt like playing a game for old time sake. She laughed at me and told me she still had the old board game that we used to play on, and I told her I didn't feel like doing all that, but what I did want to do is bring our game consoles over if she didn't have the one we needed to play the game. Again, she laughed, and said I was such a nerd, but she said I was a nerd that she loved, and assured me that I didn't have to bring any of our game consoles because they had enough in their home to accommodate any needs or desires that we may have to play games. While I had her on the phone, I asked her which game consoles they actually did have, and if the kids wanted any new games this year. I was able to get all the information I need, plus able to order them a few new games, that they'll get come Christmas morning. |
