Always next year in 4th grade, bub

When I was in third grade, Myst was all the rage.

Those were good times.

3rd was all about oregon trail on apple IIs for me ;_;

There's a certain satisfaction into having to put the disc into the tray in order the start the game. That's one reason why I don't like digital games at all.

>3rd grade
>bath toys and bedtime stories

Shit really? Wew

The games today are probably better, it's just the excitement and wonder you felt as a kid that's gone...

I was babied far into my childhood. I didn't say my first word until 4 years old. And I didn't start sleeping in my own bed until around 11 years old.

>The games today are probably better

Only the dumbest fucking normie would even consider thinking this.

>>37676877
I was born a little too late to experience SC2000 and Streets of SC/SimCopter.

I do remember playing SimEarth a good amount and loving it because biology is one of my hobbies.

>>37676886
Well that explains why you're on /r9k/

>>37676854
Same, few people who feel that way.

That seems like a stupid thing to get satisfaction from, considering it meant if your disc got fucked up you were shit out of luck. I always ripped all my discs so I didn't need them.

Well I just experienced it yesterday again, made my first 2 million people city

I miss the joy of not knowing what to expect from things as a kid. Fuck being an adult man child sucks ass.

>the excitement of getting new vidya for birthday or christmas
>waking up early next moring, sneaking to dad's office to play on his computer
>turning the volume down in order not to wake up parents, but just high enough to hear the sounds
>sitting in huge adult sized office chair, wearing pajamas
>sun is slowly rising and shinin through windows that are covered in frozen morning dew
>playing until I hear my parents wake up, and then it's time to eat some breakfast

I miss being a kid. Sure now that I'm all grown up I can have all the vidya in the world and play them all day every day if I want to, but it's just not the same.

I remember trying to play that when I was 8 and I had no idea what I was doing to I went back to SimCity and proceeded to cause a meltdown and kill half my map in a nuclear fire

Nothing has changed really.

Use to play MGS2 over and over again along with Fable and Halo.

I'm afraid my future apartment will not feel like home, but as "extended holiday". I don't like change.

Discs don't get scratched if you take good care of them. I also enjoyed hunting for my discs and popping them into the tray, hearing the drive spool up, the pop-up window for the game launching. So. Fucking. Comfy.
