The Great Game

because I knew the moment I got home and walked through that door, the weekend would officially start. Thoughts crossed my mind of what I wanted to do once I made it home. Did I want to play drums, watch a movie, or play a game; then it hit me, there was an amazing deal on new game I had wanted desperately called, Deep Black. I remembered that it had gone on sale earlier that week, and I could not contain my excitement. Deep Black was an action/shooter that was themed mostly underneath the…

Basketball has always been my best sport. I started playing in the ninth grade, and everything was going great with practices and playing, except for one game Then everything changed. It all started on game day, in the big gymnasium. Freshman games usually do not have a lot of people compared to varsity, but they were still very nerve wrecking. “Hustle in boys!” our coach shouted. “Deandre, I want you guarding 11,” he demanded. Quickly, the team ran back to the court, and went into position. The…

Interesting career “Baseball is more than a game, it’s like life played out on a field.”-Juliana Hatfield. Baseball is one of the worlds greatest sports and is played almost everywhere in the world. An interesting career would be playing in the MLB (Major League Baseball). If I was to play professional baseball I would play at the one and only Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox. According to mlb.com it says that the Boston Red Sox have been World Series champions 8 times altogether. I…

In eighth grade, I managed to tear the labrum in my left shoulder by diving for a ball and jamming the shoulder while landing. Sadly, I had to switch over to golf, but I have never lost my passion for the game. I love baseball because of the history, the statistics, and the memories the game provides me. History is part of the reason why baseball is so special. I can look back at my favorite team, the San Francisco Giants, and see how the team did all the way back in the late 1800’s. In fact…

Title: Never Giving Up Softball Have you ever played a sport and you felt like your team would never win a game? Well that is what the whole 8th grade varsity felt like by the end of the softball season. I first started playing softball because my dad played in our church league. One game he shattered his knee so he couldn’t play any more. When I watched the games, I thought it would be fun to try. So when I was six years old my dad signed me up for SVGSA (Spokane Valley Girls Softball…

One of the biggest factors that separate good roguelikes from not-so-good roguelikes is the balance between progression and replayability. Once More With Gusto’s Eternal Step is a 2D roguelike action-adventure game with a great progression system that makes every challenging playthrough worthwhile. Like most other roguelikes, Eternal Step is set in a tower that has endless floors full of traps, treasures, and monsters. Every floor is only one room and these rooms seem to be randomly generated.…

My eyes focused on the whiteboard as Coach’s pen formed X’s and O’s on the squeaky white surface. He looked at me, trying to give me that boost of confidence for the end of this game. “Alright guys listen up. Ryan has guarded their best player all game, it’s time we catch him off guard,” he said. I answered with a head nod, because my mouth was paper. A 6 foot 4 inch guy shouldn 't have any trouble guarding a guy 4 inches shorter than you, right? WRONG. I have been playing basketball since 5,…

Also the sound of the people playing soccer and talking about the game. In addition, there were some smells that can to me in the process. The smell of the air and my surroundings. In the end it helps me relaxed my mind and have…

know their feeling and the smile they have on their face.Then when you have your first time on the field, you can feel the intensity, and the adrenaline kicks in. The game itself is such an exhausting game that's why it's only played once a week and sixteen times a year total. If it were played every day, the people playing the game wouldn't be standing today, from all the hits received from other players whether on offense or defense. When the first ball is thrown, there's always a chance for…
