Marble Maze looks like fun—has anyone here played it?
Guess who said it..Barry or Sarah.
Of the list, Age of Empires II? Really?
Why not venerable staples like anything in the Civilization franchise? Or one of the multitude of Paradox games? There is so much history in either one.
Everything I needed to know, I learned from Diablo II.
Monopoly - The most politically incorrect game of all...................
(Okay, maybe the forces of political correctness *would* have a point if I actually bought this one for junior...)
We all know you are Horowitz’s employee/contractor, but please stop posting the crap pieces, like most of this stuff from Rhonda Robinson, and just post important posts from NewsReal Blog, cause Rhonda Robinson is truly destroying Horowitz’s brand with the constant drivel.
This woman is a rank amateur,
example:
“It is intended only to direct your thinking away from commercial hype, cool trends and pop culture, and think about what your child is learning and practicing during play time.”
She then recommends Age of Empires II, a Microsoft Corporation Game franchise that is by far considered the least educational and focused on game play designed to increase anxiety levels to cause addictive behaviors in children, IN THE ENTIRE GENRE.
She then recommends Robert Kiyosaki, a charlatan, scam artist and fraud who has produced a constant stream of utter and total garbage in the tabloid self help and financial investment advice field.
In short, Rhonda is a navel gazer.
That game’s cover is very eerie. It has a picture of the WTC with a large explosion behind it, and portrays invasion by communists.
And it was made in 1985!
And in my skilled leadership, those Redskins never had a chance.
Yep, me and my buddies played it a lot, and I actually still have it in my closet at home for my little boy when he’s old enough for it.
