While there are many different reasons why I get all giddy and excited over my video game console, there are three that will always top the list. For one, my video game console allows me to escape reality when I have really tough days, and has always helped me find some relief from stress during those hectic days when everything seems to go wrong. Another topper on the list of why I love my video game console is because I can really get into games like sports games that allow me to take my favorite team to the playoffs and the big, win-all championship. Finally, I love my video game console because I can rent games before I buy them, which allows me to avoid ever paying for a bunk game again. And now, with all of the accessories and crazy good games that are always coming out, the fun seemingly never ends. If there was a fourth reason why I love my video game console, it would be because it allows me to connect with my best friends and hang out and play our favorite titles together on the weekends.
