Nostalgic Glasses: Gaming 1- “From Mother Russia with Love”’



B.T



           Okay everyone it’s time to put our Nostalgic Glasses on, along with the rest of the nostalgic gear that we can muster so we can return to a time when games were simpler, when games came out and cost only a fraction of what they do today. These were the times that games made came encased in a hard plastic cartridge that wouldn’t scratch as easily as today's blue rays or DVD’s. However other games of the time were flimsy plastic packages that inside held a medium disk, a so called floppy disk that some kids today may have never seen.  Whatever its’ chosen game platform and how we interacted with those platforms these were the times of LEGENDS.
Now many, many of these games would go on to become iconic house hold names that people not only revere but also play even unto this day of Technology be it the originals or some new iteration of that IP.  Many times again we reminisce to this day how great they were then and now.  Some people may live only in these past times refusing to grow with gaming innovation and the general times, or maybe it’s the inverse they are too young to bend their knee in respect to these older games despite the fact that these predecessors are the sole reason their Halo’s, Angry Bird’s, Plants v.s Zombie’s, Call of Duties and so on exist…

I welcome you to the first of many rotating segments put forth by Drunken Procrastinating Gamers…
