I guess this blog is something that the younger readers of D-toid can relate to more, but I was just wondering what everyone's family here at D-Toid is like about gaming. I mean things like, do you game with your parents? Are they the ones who got you into gaming and so on.

For me personally, I got a SNES from one of mum's friends boyfriends and it started from there. Soon after though, my dad got a Playstation with Resident Evil and he loved that even though he was known to get quite pissed off, a trait I unfortunately acquired as a child.

But one day he returned with Tekken, which taught me the wonders of 2-player games, something new for me at the time. I felt I could actually go all out against him, but now I know it was probably just him going easy on me. My mum has never really gamed much besides Tetris, and for some reason Pokemon Stadium. Throughout my childhood I always wanted a sibling to play games with, seeing as I never got to see my friends too much, due to going to private school when I was younger.

I've never been able to get my family into gaming, and I doubt I ever will, but it'd be interesting to see the stories of fellow D-Toiders. So, do your families game? If so, what games and to what degree?

And now I've posted a blog I guess I can post this image, thus raising myself to the level of Epic Fail, other newbies have done with their 'God thinks I suck' posts.
