Greg Dragon’s Entry Example:

Dear God Kings, my favorite Video Game is Wizardry for the original NES.
Wizardry was the first game for me that allowed me to stay playing for nearly a year. With unlimited levels to gain, countless armor and weapons and the best spells in any video game evar! I and my best friend Troy were hooked on it. As grown men we still argue about who slew the evil wizard Werdna first, I remember my Lord decapitating the fool but Troy swears his warrior cleaved him. Sometimes this argument leads to fisticuffs, but I KNOW that it was my grinding and forcing my little brother to fix me peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for energy, that got me there.

One cool thing that happened was that when I was 24 I met the creator of Wizardy in my local Electronics Boutique, his name was Andrew and he was a lawyer… get it Werdna is Andrew backwards, he flipped it. I didn’t go full on scary fanboi on him but it was indeed an honor. Here was the man who created my first foray into deep ADnD-esque video gaming. Sure there were sequels to follow, some good some god-awful but Wizardry took text and a cheesy 3D dungeon interface and made it into an addictive and  awesome Video Game.
