i have been a gamer since i got my atari 2600 when i was a kid (about 8 years old) and now i am 40 and still gaming. i know a few other guys who are my age and still gaming. it always amazes me when i get a new game like halo 3 odst because the games are always getting better. doom 3 is another favorite of mine. now that i am older and living on my own, i have lots of time for games. i enjoy them now just as much as i ever did. we have come a long way from asteroids for the atari to halo 3. just think about what games are going to be like 20 or 30 years from now. i don't think i will be gaming that long but it is something to think about. i doubt i will even buy an xbox 720. i hope my xbox 360 still works for a long, long time because i have a large collection of games for it which i like very much. my gaming pc has been working good. and i like some pc games like doom 3, red alert 3, mvp baseball 2004, pga tour 2006, and a few others. pc gaming is alive and well. one of my friends reminded me that blizzard is making some great new games, like starcraft 2, diablo 3, and warcraft 4 for the pc. the pc has some really great rts games. i can't play rts games on my 360. i need a mouse and keyboard. and the graphics are better on the pc anyway. that's it for now! see ya later!
