Video Games

I love playing video games!  I have grown up playing different types of games from action games to role playing games.  I get lost in the action on the screen & it makes me feel in control while I'm playing.  In the following blog posts, I'll be writing about some of my favorite, why I like them, what makes them special to me, and .......
