Games

As a kid, I used to play a lot of games. All of us did at some point. The first game I ever played was "The Secret of Grisly Manor". It was a game about the main character's grandfather who was missing and our goal as the MC was to find out what happened to him. It was a very creepy game but I loved it.

Most of the games I played varied from simulation to action and everything in between. I remember trying to download Euro Truck Simulator 2 on my dad's PC because that game blew up somewhere in 2018 and guess what, During the process of installing the game, I had also installed a virus that multiplied the tab that I was on which caused the entire PC software to crash and I also remember my dad screaming at me for messing up his work files and more.

But, My first introduction to games was back when I received a PlayStation 2 for my 10th birthday and the first ever non-mobile game I played was Hitman: Silent Assassin. That game had me on the edge of my bed as I had to be really quiet while I tried to do something as the enemies in the game would get alerted very easily.

By far, The best two games I've ever played in my life would be GTA Vice City and Need For Speed: Most Wanted. The thrill of losing everything you had at the beginning of the game and trying to do everything that you could to gain it back and the visible satisfaction that I used to get felt good.

The toughest game I've ever played was Assassins Creed: Black Flag. I've spent more hours than I've studied on that game as there was this one objective that I had to just finish to get moving on to the next part of the game and it would leave me frustrated and angry to the point where I would rage quit but used to pick the controller up again in a few minutes. I eventually finished the objective but it took me almost a week.

I've had my fair share of playing Clash of Clans when it blew up in 2016 and I was hooked on to the game. I became addicted to the point where my dad would pry the phone out of my hands and I wouldn't get the phone for the next 2 days. Subway Surfers was one of the games I was addicted to as well. Surfing trains as a fat policeman tried to catch you? Fuck yes, I was down for some of that action. But what I found funny was how the policeman always kept up even though he was fat and whatever character I played was obviously faster than him. That will be a mystery for ages to come.

I never had any games on my phone up until 2 days ago when I downloaded SimCity. I remembered playing that game around 2 years ago and I wanted to experience the entire feeling of being the mayor (I'm not into politics but come on, The game is pretty good). That's the only game I might ever play in a long time to come.

I wish I could go back to the days when I was very enthusiastic about games but I know that as I only get older, The enthusiasm will only come down. So I do what everyone does best, Reminisce the past and think about the good times I had while doing what I loved the most.
