Surfing video games

10:30 am Surfing potpourri

I think every kid grew up playing Nintendo or some other gaming console depending on their age group. My favorite game was definitely “California Games”. The graphics were so primitive but it is still one of my tops: surf competitions and skateboarding down the block. I have not purchased a new gaming system since Xbox, but I still think it’s sweet. The truth is the games cost so much and I overdo it with every new game I get, that after a few weeks I don’t touch it anymore.

Up until about a month ago I hadn’t played my Xbox in God knows how long. But then one of my friends, who has every game system from Atari up through PS3, introduced me to GameFly. It’s like Netflix for video games. I think my console is permanently on these days. I get two video games at a time and can keep them as long as I want. Then I just pop them in the mail and two new ones come. It’s definitely the smartest move I’ve made concerning video games.

Lately I’ve been playing Kelly Slater’s Pro Surfer. I’ve had that for about 2 weeks now and no signs of boredom in the future. They have roughly a handful of surfing video games for most gaming consoles. I highly recommend trying GameFly. For those of you who are skeptical or are curious, you cannot go wrong with a free trial which gives you 10 days and 2 video game rentals. No commitments, no obligations, just play. Let me know if you try it out. The link above provides more information about GameFly, the free trial, and membership options.
