We’re thinking about getting a PlayStation 4. Like, soon. And that means I need to pick out video games. The problem is that I have no idea where to start. I don’t play video games. We had a Nintendo (the original version), but we only had maybe four games. I remember Duck Hunt, Super Mario Bros., Zelda (although I don’t remember playing that one), and Joust. I think we borrowed Mike Tyson’s Punch Out sometimes. Then at some point we added Tetris and Dr. Mario. But you get the picture – that’s the era of video games I’m familiar with. In college, Greg, Erik, and John played Goldeneye for hours and hours, but I never tried it long enough to get the hang of the controller. John had a PS2 for a while, but I wasn’t really interested in the games he played, so I never really tried to get into it.
Now I want to get into it, but I don’t know where to start. I’m as new as newbies get – I don’t even know what type of game I want to play. The only thing I know is that I don’t want one with a steep learning curve. I don’t want to get frustrated immediately. I’m reading reviews, seeing what I can find out. I may just have to guess.
Help?
