Personal Narrative: My First Xbox Games

Decent Essays
There has never been a more influential series than Gears of War. Not only was the Gears of war 2 my first Xbox games but it was also one of the first games I got emotionally attached to. It has a good story line and follows the idea of brotherhood (or sisterhood). The games fetchers a lot of lost friends and family where there able to move past it and this is why I modeled the way I deal with grief and other things after the game’s. gears of war was not as sad but it did introduce all the characters that will stay throughout the games (for the most part). this includes the carmine brothers which most of them die unfortunately and there is even a funny youtube video about it (yes i'm aware that contradicts my last statement). the basic

    To anyone who still plays or has played Halo: I have a theory. To start; Halo, as a series is, to me, without question the absolute greatest video game series I have ever played. I bought my first xbox when I was about 8 years old, but when my brother bought Halo 2, I played that game more times than I cared to count until my hands could actually hit all the buttons on the controller and I had memorized where all the enemies spawned in, lob a grenade, and take them out before they could fire. I spent the night after grade 8 ended playing Halo: Reach until 5am, then continued to play it after a much needed power nap.…

    I have never really considered myself a history buff, nor do I tend to indulge myself in any sort of history in my spare time. Like many others, I took this course, Role Playing American History, in order to fulfill a general education requirement, and my counselor said she has heard this course is pretty entertaining. However, I found myself truly enjoying this course for many reasons beyond being able to argue with my classmates. This course truly did help me to better learn about American history for several reasons, as well as alter the way I view history in general. First and foremost, the game itself taught me a variety of information about American history.…

    Ever since I can remember video games have always been my escape. On my ninth birthday I received my xbox 360 and since that day I have never look back. With my xbox I have made memories and friendships that will last life a life time. Although some believe things in life are either good or bad, it can be seen through Xbox that things are both good and bad, but it’s the proportion between good and bad that matters, this can be seen through new games, finishing games, and new systems that proves that a disproportionate amount of good versus bad creates good memories. With the Xbox there were many games that I have played that have taken me on hundreds of adventures.…

None of them seemed appealing to me, and I thought about what to do, I had so many ideas of what to do and found the one that best suited me which was to create a video game and have people play it around the world. I knew video games from the back of my mind so to create my very own video game and have people play it would be outstanding. Although it did have a flaw, I had no experience in making video games. I had a general idea of what to do but not enough to get me far.…
