So I booted up Unreal for the first time in 15 years tonight, and was unexpectedly blown away. Everything was good- the gameplay, the difficulty level, the ambiance, the huge world contained within the game, the sound and music… hell, even the graphics impressed me. They seemed a bit less incredible than they were when I first saw them back in HS, but not by much. I was stunned.
This. Game. Kicks. Ass!
I couldn’t believe it!
All this time, I thought I had left the world of big-budget gaming behind because I grew older. Gaming is a kid’s endeavor, right? That’s why I stopped.
It was tonight that I realized the truth.
I stopped gaming because the games started to suck.
Mind. Blown.
