Oh Summer, you fickle maiden, how our relationship has changed. Once upon a time, we cavorted through the woods and meadows, looking for empty cans and bottles so we could thumb a few extra quarters into the Contra machine, or maybe rent an NES game again (for $3 a day). Now, I either pray for rain (figuratively speaking) so I can do work inside the house, or fix/trim/dig/clean things outside my house, while trying to keep one eye on my kids. Still, this is a big time of year for nostalgia, so I might as well pick up a summer-themed game. What do you all think? No? Really? Uh, okay. How about we meet halfway in between, then?
