The Download Space: A New Home for Fighting, Racing, and Sports Games
Video games have been a part of my life for as long as my hands have been able to hold a controller. Many of those years were spent locked in epic battles with my younger brother. We would wage war all day in Street Fighter 2, WWF: No Mercy, NBA Street Vol. 2, and Madden football. These were some of the best video game moments of my life.
Things were simple back then there was no Xbox Live or PSN for us to connect to. We would just plop down on the couch, pick-up our controllers, and have at it. Nowadays my brother and I hardly ever find the time to play one-on-one. Yes, we no longer live together, but we both have next generation consoles and we haven't beaten the crap out of each other in years. We both still love these genres of games, but we never seem to be playing the same thing at the same time. Which makes me think that all Racing, Fighting, and Sports games should at the very least offer a fully-downloadable version for people to enjoy.
