Waiting to play

Waiting to playBy: Thomas Hyde

When I was a child my parents both had to work late nights; it was because of this I spent almost every night at my grandma and grandpas house. I remember when I was around 6 or 7 years old and I would sit and wait, trying to be patient, for my uncle to get home. With a small rush, I would hear the door swing open to let him enter, Hello, Im home.

My uncle coming home was my favourite part of the day and it helped me become interested in one of my favourite hobbies, video games. Sure my family always had a Nintendo for as long as I could remember and I played it at home, but the real thing I loved was playing games with my uncle. After he got home from work, he and I would go play an old computer game called Baldurs Gate, which led me to love fantasy games above all.Over the years we played more and more games together. Some of them were other fantasy games like Morrowind, and The Legend Of Zelda. Some were sci-fi like Robotech Battlecry, shooters like Halo, and even music games like Guitar Hero.Mainly when I think of gaming I wonder if I would love games, particularly the ones listed above (which to this day are some of my favourites), the same way if it werent for the time my uncle spent teaching me about them and how to play them.
