Greets, gamers!
Every book we've published since 1996 has had a LORE section: These are fan-submitted tales of their gaming explots and experiences. In the past, these stories were limited to the most vintage of systems, with the most recent being the Nintendo NES.
For 2004's Advance Guide, the stories apply to any of the systems contained therein, or the era from 1989 to present. See the book order page for the systems included.
Your story can be as long or as short as you wish. What we're looking for is that feeling that "we are there". Share your favorite moment (or moments) with us! The day you plugged in your Genesis for the first time. The time your Game Boy saved your life. The incredible finds of Laseractive and PC Engine games. The Neo-Geo game that changed the way you see video games.
These should be REAL LIFE experiences. There are some ancient (but still relevant) examples that we've used at this link:

Or you could just look back at your Collector's Guides of old.
