Game of the Month: The Games Not Played
Created | Updated Aug 2, 2015
Mags plays the games so you don't have to
Game of the month has been very quiet, I know, I'm sorry.
I know how much you look forward to my monthly round up.
Circumstances have prevailed this year. So while I still got video games in the plastic wrapper, I've been playing other games.
My hubby suffers from MS and on Christmas Eve he suffered a major relapse in his condition, the medical bods were saying 'Secondary Progressive'. He's healing well now and should be back home so video games will played again soon.
The games I’ve been really playing this year are the Games of how to pretend I'm not scared when you and our 12 year old son are escorted to the 'Family Room' while your husband is in Resuscitation in A&E.
When all you see in his cubicle are the hastily washed away remains of blood and other things on the floor and try and pretend that this isn'tSilent Hill: Homecoming1>. Still not panicking (at least in full view) while he goes to up to ICU and I'm told he's not out of the woods. My beautiful man was so close to dying. He’s a fighter though, he didn’t give up. Yeah, I know how much it cost to get back home in taxi, at 3am, but it was worth it*.
Months and months later and he is still in Neuro-Rehab. He has been given a single room and can sleep well now. He gets stronger and stronger each day. It has been a long ride but the light at the end of tunnel is (finally) not an oncoming train.
So with this in mind, you’d think I’d stopped buying games or thinking about them. I can assure that that isn’t the case. I just can’t play them yet.
Hopefully next month I’ll be able to tell you all about Lego Dimensions and the new Skylanders Super Chargers, both of which are leased at the end of September.
Until next time, happy gaming!
