National Gaming Day – Computer Style

January 9, 2009

I loaded the demo for Pirates of the Caribbean, and created accounts for Club Penguin on all our pc’s. The music in the background is video game music from the Final Fantasy series. We also had a computer with Age of Empires installed.

National Gaming Day

January 9, 2009

Many thanks to our neighbors, Janie and Marilyn from the Sarah Hull Hallock Free Library for bringing their Wii down for this jointly sponsored event. We had Super Smash Brothers on one Wii and Mario Kart on the other. We also had numerous board games, Magic the Gathering, Dungeons and Dragons and last but not least – Rock Band on the xBox 360.
