Imagine you’re 12 years old – for some of you that’s more of a stretch than it is for others. It’s also the early ‘90s and everyone is wearing a fire hazard because it’s fashionable. Video games are a luxury, and rightly so. They’re expensive and you are happy for what you get given by your parents – maybe two new games over a year. Think hard about what you’re going to choose as you’ll be playing it many, many times. You might get to play a handful more by doing the odd rental or if your friends didn’t also go for the big hitters like you did. Most games are experienced via the pages of video game magazines, often more pictures than words, but that’s fine. You live to see what delights are on show in next month’s mags.
You got Street Fighter 2 Special Champion Edition for Mega Drive (Genesis if you use the inferior US name) on Christmas Day, a game you could play with your brother and friends, endlessly. It’s a great day. No one is denying that. Later that day you give the latest issue of Mean Machines another read. Maybe, you think, you should have asked for Sonic Spinball. But is Sonic really that good of have you fallen for the hype that it’s better than Mario?
Then Santa drops in. It’s now 4pm on Christmas Day, you’ve eaten too many Quality Street from a tin and five chocolate oranges, but who cares? You don’t argue with the big man. He’s holding a golden ticket, emblazoned with the words “Game Pass Ultimate” and he’s giving it to you. On the flip side it reads “PS Plus Premium,” but you quickly flick back over to Game Pass.
