Atari 2600 Hidden Gems

Introduction Usually for January, we go with the theme of “New Year, New Games”. I stumbled on an article a couple of weeks ago that inspired me to change that theme slightly. The article talked about “lost classics” on one of the consoles from my childhood. Why not, I thought, expand on that by focusing […]

College Football 25 is a Gift

Introduction I went to Wal*Mart a few months ago. That’s not unusual. Living in small town America means that Wal*Mart represents the only real shopping option. While there, I went into the clearance section. Again, not anything new. I often peruse the deals in clearance to see if I can get school supplies or cheap

MK1 is a Gift

Introduction What? MK1 is a gift?! Have we gone mad here at 2 Generations Gaming? Perhaps, but if you know us, this won’t come as a surprise. First, we zig when others zag. Second, I like to find something to praise about almost every creative project. Wait. I’m serious here. You mean the other MK1,

Video Games of Future

Introduction As part of our 10th anniversary celebration, I came up with the idea to write about my past, present, and future in video and tabletop games. I already talked about past and present. That, of course, brings us to video games of future. I won’t say that I completely inherited my father’s knack for

Video Games of Present

Introduction While Chris and I mostly just talked during this latest visit, we still discussed our recent gaming adventures. I suggested D&D if the boys were home and maybe Warhammer, if not. I showed off my models and he thought they were cool, but we didn’t actually play. He’s been busy with other stuff, his

Video Games of Past

I already talked about tabletop games of the past. This article plans to celebrate my video games of past. If the title sounds awkward, I apologize.
