I grew up playing video games too. I wasn't acting superior, but kids playing outside seems to be a thing of the past. When I was a kid we played video games most days, but that was usually after playing outside all day.
If you don't recognize this, your childhood sucked.

Horrible graphics, no achievements, no kill streaks.If you don't remember this, your childhood sucked
For those that don't get the reference, it is kids playing outside.
My days consisted of exactly 8 hours of sleep, a well-rounded breakfast, then 14-15 hours playing real sports outside....Oh you "gamerz" and your fancy television graphic machines.
IRL, your post is spot on. Spend all day doing God knows what outside, hit up the swimming pool so you could get kicked out within the last hour of it being open, then head to a buddies place to play videogames all night.....and by all night I mean until 9 or 10.
Man, this makes me want to go back to late elementary school/early middle school summers. Absolutely nothing to worry about nor any real responsibilities. (besides practices for whatever sport you were playing). Days consisted of going to the pool all afternoon, then playing video games till bedtime (if you weren't playing laser tag, hide-and-go seek with the neighborhood kids at night)
Anybody remember this:
Yeah man... I played it on the Game Boy!
a bit off topic, but as somebody who basically stopped playing FPS after the n64, how would you say today's FPS compare against goldeneye from a fun factor perspective?
its hard to believe multiplayer gaming getting any better then a 4 person session of goldeneye, but its probably just nostalgia

Edit: Can't get it to show...
Played the SNES version all the time. 3rd base coach would always be waving me to go home even if the 3rd basemen had the ball...needs to be FIRED!!!!
Boom!
Up, down, up, down, left, right, left, right, a, b, a, b, start. Unlimited lives. BOOM!
The Konami Code:
Also, this only granted you 30 lives, however that was enough to effectively be "unlimited" unless you were severely video game challenged.
This was indeed an awesome game. Good memories of playing this two-player with my dad.

I wasn't too far off for 25 years. I wish I could forget that **** and remember my wife's birthday!
Does anyone recognize this gem?
Either Socom or possibly this one horrible desert storm game for ps2?
Throw some remote or proximity mines on the TV monitors overhead and watch your friends completely freak out.Id say this picture would be a better candidate for that:
