A well-written and lengthy post I enjoyed reading through. I also share a similar experience when it comes to relying on my cousins when I was young to get in on most video games. I use to love when they'd come over most weekends and bring their Xbox 360. We'd play split-screen COD: MW2 and despite getting beat most the time, I had fun.

I'm also a big fan of Red Dead. I'm looking forward to it's sequel coming out soon!
