The Events of 9/11 Forever Changed Me

Before 9/11, like every other kid, I didn't really care about politics, history, religion and culture. I was in the 8th grade at the time and I only cared about video games, the popular music, comic books and girls. But the moment I saw footage of the towers on the news, my life changed.

I remember I went home for lunch and while I ate some spaghetti that my mother had left me, I turned on the TV and it was already on a news channel. I didn't really understand what was going on. But it sparked my curiosity and made me want to know more about this and why would someone do this.

On my way back to school, I picked up a newspaper and see if there was anything related to this. That was the first time I actually read the newspaper. At school, I would join those who talking about politics. I started watching the news instead of watching some of the shows for teenagers I used to watch. I read books and searched the net when I didn't know something.

It didn't instantly change me, but it set me forth on the right tracks. It made me a lot more aware of the world we live in. It made me aware that we shouldn't blindly trust the government and that countries will fight for money. I'm not talking about people in a specific government, but about the various nations currently hungry for power. We should get our mind right and not let ourself get hypnotized by the various forms of the media.

ScrewAttack's Top 20 SNES Games

Like I said I would, here is the top 20 Super Nintendo games according to ScrewAttack. Even tho this is old, I had to post it because I just posted the Sega Genesis one. The SNES is my all time favourite console! It has so many classics and some games are even better than some of the lame ass games we get today... Super Nintendo is way better than the Xbox 360! Well... We can't compare the two, but the SNES is still dope. If for some reason, you've never played the Super Nintendo, slap yourself. Click on read more to see the videos.

Pt. 1 | Pt. 2

If you now feel like playing SNES games, go here to get an emulator. I personally use the Snes9x. You'll also need some ROMs to play but they are illegal so I can't tell you where to go. That means stop being lazy and Google!

ScrewAttack's Top 20 Genesis Games

The part 1 came out a few days ago but I just have to post it. The Sega Genesis was is one of the best consoles no doubt! I remember when I was around 6, I would go to my uncles house to play their Sega Genesis. They had Mortal Kombat 3 and Sonic the Hedgehog. Back then, those were some of the best games out there!

If you wanna play some Genesis now, go here to get an emulator. I like the Gens. You'll need some ROMs to play some games but they are illegal so I can't tell you where to go. That means stop being lazy and Google!
