Welcome: An Introduction

Hello and welcome to my blog, i am as you can see by my screen name Jugow. And i am here to bring you blog about... VIDEO GAMES and movies, but mostly video games. Woohoo, well i cant wait to start. Right after i post this blog im going to start writing the next one. Since this is an intro, i shoud tell you what my blog is about. So here is my story, since i was a little boy i have been playing video games. When i was 4 years old i was playing Duke Nukem 3D and Lego Racers and other cool games. When i was 7 years old, i got a PS2 for Christmas, i was so happy. The first game i owned for the PS2 was Kingdom Hearts, at the time i was to young to fully appreciate the game. I mean the numerous cameos of Disney stars and the RPG elements were to me boring at the time. But now years later i can   fully appreciate the game. The next game i bought for my PS2 was Tekken 5, i loved it. For me it was the greatest thing ever, i cant even remember how many hours i spend on the floor in front of my TV button mashing trying to defeat my opponent.With time i got better at it and i bought other games, like Tony Hawks American Wasteland and 24 The Game and GTA Vice City Stories. But one faithful day, a friend of mine lent me a game it looked pretty cool. So i went home and played it, the game i played was Ratchet: Gladiator, or for my readers from the west Ratchet: Deadlocked. It was the best game i have ever played, its fun, great controls, a gripping story line and so many other thing made this the best game ever for me. Still to this day this is my favorite game of all time, and i have played some really good games, like Half-Life, Halo, WoW, GTA San Andreas and many others. Anyways lets continue the story, after a couple years of playing alot of my PS2 i got bored so i packed it up and put it in my closet, where it still is to this day. But i wasnt bored for long because i discovered a wonderful thing called THE INTERNET. Literally milions of flash games were uncoverd to me. Websites dedicated to flash games, OpenGL games and some many other things like Youtube. I watched so many Youtube clips over time, i woud literally spend hours just on Youtube watching cat videos and speed runs of games. On Youtube i one day discovered a video that changed my life, i saw Top Ten Game Consoles Of All Time by GameTrailers. My mind was blown, i thought to myself ˝There are other consoles?˝. Yes i discovered Nintendo, Xbox and others, so i really wanted to get into retro gaming. But unfortunatly  i live i a place where buy stuff online is almost impossible. All of the huge sites that sell stuff i woud want to buy dont ship into my country. Sites like Ebay, Amazon, they are mostly centred towards the US and Canada. Besides not that many sites have worldwide shipping, even if they woud ship to my country theres still the problem of payment. To pay for stuff online i woud need a PayPal account and a credit card. I have neither, so i was stuck on my PC until i discovered EMULATORS. I found  a site where you can play NES games online, i was instantly hooked. I spent hours upon hours playing Super Mario Bros. and Mega Man and The Legend of Zelda. Well after some time, a couple of years i got my own computer. It was mine but i had to share it with my family, and i was not happy at all with that. But finaly when i was in 8th grade i scraped up enough money to buy my own computer that was mine and only mine. And here i am writing my story online on my  computer in my room. But it wasnt all happy all the time, my parents got divorced witch was like a knockout punch for me. My brother took it alot better than me, but then again hes much older and more independent. But i shall sorrow no more and i will make something of my self starting with this blog site, so i hope you enjoyed reading about my story and i hope you check out my future blogs.

Bye now.
