My wife and I are both avid Garage Sell “Tourists” and this last sunday we came upon a large open lawn sell a few miles from our home. The gentlemen that was hosting the said sale, had to be in his late 60’s to early 70’s. His grandson, (approximately 10 years of age) was playing on a Laptop computer while he was welcoming people to his home. Ofcourse the Garage sell had lots of older items, antiques and such, but thats not what caught my eye. I believe we were at the tail end of the sale, cause the crowds were pretty much gone but my wife and I. In essence this is what I observed of the Grandfather and Grandson.
The 10 y/o was on the Star Wars. Long story short, after a story to his Grandchild, the child turned to his Grandfather and showed him the website. After a few moments of staring at the laptop, the Grandfather turned to and asked what is was. The Grandson excitedly explained TOR was goging to be a new online game like his World of Warcraft. Curious, the Grandfather asked, “so I can play a Jedi on that computer thingy?” The Grandson replied Yes!
I saw the facial change in the Grandfather, as he realized he could play the game with him, and the Grandfather replied, “Sammy, that is one game I wouldnt miss for the world.””
Ofcourse my wife teared up it was so cute. But what this experience did, is remind me that in 2011, Generations can come together and enjoy a game like this. So for that I thankyou Bioware.
Sorry for the sappy post, but it was just one fo those life moments I had to share.”
