Happy Video Game Day! That's right folks, today is Video Game Day. Not to be confused with National Video Game Day which is on September 12th. I would like to thank Shawn for the title of this post by the way. I felt that he needed to be acknowledged for his contribution for this post. I know I intend to celebrate tonight with what will hopefully be the final battle in Dragon Age. And although the consoles (like the big 3 you see above) are what people primarily refer to, we can't forget about those that helped pave the way. Ones such as the Atari (any will do), Nintendo (once again, pick any), Sega (I mainly remember Mortal Combat at my friend's house. That and Crazy Taxi on the Dreamcast.), and who can forget the arcades? I've read that in Japan, Sega has developed an arcade that updates your Twitter as you play.
And while all of those mentioned (and I'm sure there's some that I've forgotten), We can't discount the computer. I know Cait will be celebrating as well by playing the Sims 3 Ambitions. From what I've heard, that game is pretty fun. But in all seriousness, we can't continue to let these little known holidays continue to slip by unnoticed. I say we stand up and let the world know about these! Or I could just be rambling and looking for an excuse to play video games. Who knows? I wish you all the best as you celebrate this holiday!
