Maddenation

Thinking of playing a video game only brings one thought to my mind: Madden. Madden NFL is by far the most amazing video game I have ever played throughout my video gaming journey through life. My past experiences with video games themselves range all the way back to the origional game boy. Super Mario Bros. and the whole lot of origional old-school games were virtually the best thing in the world of gaming for a young grade schooler at the time. As time progressed, my experiences moved on to the Nintendo 64. Games like quarter back club 1999 adorned my tv screen as I moved through this stage of the journey.

After time, that 64 was morphed into a new and improved Xbox from Microsoft. This new platform of gaming opened many new doors, with new graphics, online gaming, and a slew of brand new and improved games. One of those games was Madden NFL Football, made by John Madden himself. This game was the game that any guy who liked football had been searching for, for several years. As time even progressed with the Xbox, Madden NFL football continued to grow and somehow become even cooler. Today we have Madden NFL Football 2007. It is by far the most amazing football game that I personally have ever played. I am ashamed to say that I really couldn't start to keep track of the amount of hours that I have spent playing the game, instead of doing something productive like studying.

I think it is interesting to actually step back and realize actually how much time I have spent playing a game that is so trivial. That is why I want to look more in depth at how video games can affect teenagers, and college aged kids. I want to know if there is actually an explanation. I am excited to take this topic and expand upon it for my final paper that I will be writing. I can't wait to see what I will find.
