Awesome story, it's a shame you moved away from gaming but life does move on. I did the reverse, mainly because when I was young nothing decent to game on had been invented. Nowadays everything plays games, and having two boys that love to game means I tend to get encouraged to join in even if I am far worse then them!

I also have two boys. I'm grooming them to be sparring partners (for me and each other) in fighting games but my oldest is much more in love with Minecraft than he is with Street Fighter.
It is a close call between my two, Minecraft or Roblox. I have to hand it to the Roblox designers - they created an incredible gaming environment that is 100% a money maker - everything about it needs extra purchase to upgrade character - access VIP - they are literally minting it in. The platform upgrades constantly and improves and runs really well so I don't really feel upset my 7 year old regularly needs a Robux hit to pimp up his character - but I feel compared to stand alone game manufacturers selling a one off game either physical disc or download - Roblox are on a constant money train - and even better they get other people to make the game environments for them - such a genius move it makes me wince a little in pain.
