Sorry guys not for me. I guess I am old school. My kids have all that and nothing makes me madder then to see them sit on that thing for hours when its so nice outside. I guess its not so bad in the winter, but to watch them waste a perfectly nice day and not go outside at all. The sad thing my 23 year old is the worst no job, stay up all night, sleep all day. Drives me nuts. Sorry I guess I don't like video games much.

My g/f's brother is 25 and stays up til 7am playing video games and throws tantrums when he dies or whatever. I think it's pretty stupid. I'd play super mario or burgertime though lol

I pulled out my old Atari system a couple of months ago.  That thing is 30 yrs old but works like it was new...PitFall, Space Invaders, Asteroid, Donkey Kong

Yes, I am telling my age, I don't care.  I had fun with that thing when I was 10-12 yrs old.  To fire it up and play it again after all those years, now on a big screen, it was fun.  And wouldn't you know, I can still play like an expert of days old. It's like ridin a bike. 

It's the old Atari 2600 like this one...

We still have a couple of Ataris, an older Nintendo, and even a Commodore 64 somewhere. I havent plai one in years. Last time I tried to play Super Mario brothers, my wife (Old Yeller) stomped my behind. I have tried to play Guitar Hero with the youth group. I pretty much stink at that two. I dont have the attention span to play anymore. They have some cool games, but I cant sit still long enough.

I haven't touched a video game since the day I got my first car at age 13. A chevette  ;D. 16 years later still haven't stopped turning wrenches.

Atari was and is pretty cool. We have the later version(more flat) and still works. When I pry my son off the Wii we'll play combat with the tanks and he gets a kick out of that. We do limit playing time with our children especially when it's nice outside. I've played the Wii a couple of times and it's neat. I don't really get into playing video games but I do love Pac-man and combat.

That's about it, when I got a vehicle, I pretty much ditched games and never rode a bike again.  I do have all my old SNES and NES games on my computer....lol
