Final Fantasy 7 was my game. As in I know I will never play a game as much or care as much about one as I did that one at that time in my life.
Worked my first job picking fruit for a few weeks one summer and then quit because I realized I could afford to buy myself a PS2 and had decided that would be how I would spend the rest of the summer, playing FF7 . Didn't have a PS1 or any form of console before that so it was a big deal to be able to not only buy that for myself and get it when it was pretty new but also get it back when my family didn't even have a DVD player in our home so even my folks were jealous and asked to use it.
In May / June the elementary school I work in was forced to start teaching from home. Around the same time we bought a new TV for our living room. So I grabbed up the old big screen TV stuck it in my new "Home office" for my birthday bought myself an office chair and then looked into storage and pulled out my old SNES (bought on a trip to Japan a few years ago) with Street fighter and Super Mario Bros, my PS2 mentioned above and the PS3 I got second hand right as the PS4 was coming out. Immediately set it all up together and then re-completed GTA V (What a game).
In July I had a few weeks off, and now that I had all this set up took the plunge and although I only get max 1hr of potential game time a day if I am lucky *young kid) bought a 2nd hand PS4 on the cheap and then for Fathers Day (was two days ago here) got Red Dead Redemption 2 as a gift...oh my, here we go again, this game feels special.
and that's my story
