Nice! (Gaming)
I should mention that I also didn't have a memory card.
So every time I rented it, I started over. Everytime I died, I started over. I would stay up late, I would pause the game and fall asleep and go back to it when I awoke. I remember getting to Aeris's church and thinking it was both beautiful AND an accomplishment. The last time I rented it I was able to get out of Midgar and the world map blew my mind! I had no idea it existed - that the game was that big! A couple of months later I finally got the game and a memory card for my birthday and the game truly began... finally!
The Struggle was Real. I remember when I got a PS2, my PS1 memory card had stopped working (what a coincidence). The first game I got was Kingdom Hearts (another amazing game) and I had to do the same thing. My parents promised me we would get one that weekend, so during the week I left it on all the time. Then one day my stepmom unknowingly turned it off.....
Kids today will never know the struggle of memory cards and/or the lack of cloud storage.
