this game defined my high school experience and I'm probably way more excited about this than I should be. Such fond memories playing this while jamming out to the soundtrack.

Yeah, I am disappointed it won't be available sooner. The Warehouse demo will be available if you pre-order but I don't think it is available yet. Like I said, I am way more excited about than maybe I should be. haha

I don't have time for console gaming these days but when quarantine kicked in, we got the kids an Xbox One. I considered getting Tony Hawk, lol.

Yeah. I play for about an hour or two a week now but that is about a 100% increase compared to pre-quarentine life. We have an NES classic mini that the kids love playing and they always want me to play with them to beat the "hard levels" so of course I have to do my fatherly duty. Haha

Yeah, I do have to admit that my wife is pretty awesome, lol. She's been too encouraging to my Lego habit though.

This summer, through some extra work I'm doing with College Board and MIT, I'll finally get to buy a nice 3D printer and laser cutter, all with my wife's blessing.

Yeah, I'm about the same, if that. My son likes watching me play. Most of the time the kids use it to play Minecraft with friends.

We have he SNES mini and my youngest has a Raspberry Pi loaded with retro games and a collection of retro controllers to go along with it.

Right now he's working with me on programming his own Sonic the Hedgehog game.

That is amazing. Our kids are a bit young for minecraft but my son like the idea of minecraft but gets really frustrated with it so doesn't play it very often. It has been raining a lot here so we have had to do a lot of indoor stuff which has included way more electronic entertainment than I'd like to admit.

Yeah, our screen time rules have been blown away. The nice thing about Minecraft is that our kids have learned a lot from it. Our middle child, who has special needs, displays a ton of logic in his Minecraft builds and it has helped with his reading and writing ability. It engages him in ways that so many other things can't. But when it becomes frustrating for him...lol...it's frustrating.

I really thought I’d do more gaming during this quarantine. I literally have an xboxOne I’ve never played a video game on. It’s sad. I understand that. I am old. Also understood.
