a video game for months and months...in the 90s....I think it was called...Real Star Wars. 1992....I found it on the internet, but I couldn't play it on the net...(that game is still hooked up on my TV...haven't played it in many years)
... I played it until I finally beat it moving up one level at a time, and starting over and over...I finally finished blowing up the planet, in the rocket sitting in the cockpit shooting at this and that...And when I won that after all those parts of the game, and I beat them all..(there must have been 10 or 11 or more, each moving up to a higher level) I really felt great..
...Yes, it is still hooked up, don't know how to play. May start again. But I will say this, playing those games (yes there were 2 or 3 others) took my mind off of everything. No association with the news, this problem or that problem..just getting to the next level of the game. When I finally beat the last part of the game, and blew up the death start, it was a terrific feeling.. I wonder if I could beat it again?..after many hours of playing..??starting all over??? oh well...I will see...thanks for reading this..
....Totally true..I spent dozens if not hundreds of hours playing a Star Wars game..I think it was "Real Star Wars".....oh well back to figuring out tomorrow..
