Getting back into gaming after a decade

3w ago·1 min read

Bought myself a PS5 last month and holy cow the games are incredible now. I was a huge gamer in my 20s but life happened and I just gave it up. My 8 year old thinks its the coolest thing ever and we're playing Spider-Man together. Finding 30 minutes here and there to play when the house is quiet is honestly my favorite part of the day. Any recommendations for games a dad and kid can play together that aren't too intense?

That's awesome man, welcome back to gaming! My kids actually got me to dust off my old console last year and now we play together sometimes. The games really have come a long way.

This is so cool that you're doing this. With my odd hours in Vegas I grab gaming time whenever I can squeeze it in, so I totally get the appeal. Your 8 year old is probably pumped to have a gaming dad too.

Welcome back to gaming! The jump from a decade ago to now is insane. Graphics alone will blow your mind. What games are you diving into first?

PS5 is legit. I've been thinking about picking one up but honestly my couch time is limited these days. Are you getting much gaming in or is it mostly sitting there looking cool?

This is awesome. Taking time for yourself is important, and gaming is a solid way to decompress after the kids are down. Just watch out for those 2am sessions where you lose track of time.
