Playing games

[Buckman]

Our neighbour across the road got a Playstation for Christmas. He is about the same age as me and has never had one previously. He said he was tired for reading or watching Tv and wanted something to stimulate his brain. I have not seen the unit or whatever they call it, but was a bit surprised as thought they were mainly for youngsters. Anyone want to own up to owning one of these Playstations as like the idea of brain stimulation. LOL! 😂

I don't have a Playstation but do play games across the Internet with my Grandson. Wobbly Life, Minecraft, Farming Simulator and My Little Universe.

I've also got an old Wii which is also great fun as well.

No need for a PlayStation, loads of games on your PC and most of them are free.

I once played a rally cross game with my son ( 14 at the time)..... 5 laps in my glorious Subara WRX...... I got in front on the last corner and sped over the line in glorious fashion.....then proceeded to celebrate my win in true dad style........ only to discover that I had, in fact, only completed 4 laps.... he duly completed the 5th lap and won.....and has never let me forget it since.

I was quite interested in the Flight Simulator until I found out that you need a MS account to use it so that idea got binned.

When I want to relax/ chill and in need of some brain stimulation I head into my fly tying den, with pink floyd playing in the background, sheer bliss 😊

I have Pink Floyd running through my veins…. Ever since I listened to DSOTM with headphones on in 1974… when I was 11 yrs old.

In support of boredom of reading, and tiredness of watching TV, it is super healthy for your brain to experience those feelings on a frequent basis.

We have a Wii which gets occasional use.

My son still has a Sinclair Spectrum ZX and a Coomodore C64 both in original boxes. I seem to recall that he had a flight simulator program for one of them. Its simplicity was something to behold. Mountains were triangles, tall buildings rectangles, roads a series of parallel lines converge into the distance. But it was addictive and we spent long hours in to the evenings playing on it.

We have an old Wii, which has lots of games, an a balance board which helps for the older folk.
Love playing Frisbee golf and ten pin bowling on it. Also Bass fishing.
Had an old MS flight simulator, which I loved for the glider and basic trainer. Didn't need any MS account.
