Basically, I am wondering if I am the only one that does this. Hopefully, I'm not. Anyway, just like the title say, does playing a video game trigger a memory in your life? Does a certain scene in a game make you remember something similar?
One example: The first time I was doing the PokeBlock minigame in Pokemon Sapphire I was selling vegetables at our family's roadside stand in 2005. That is only part of the memory. That first time I played it, I suddenly remembered a conversation I had in 2004 about the PSAT/NMSQT. Now, this memory and the memory's memory plays in my head every time.
Another: I was playing Hard Rock casino. It was during a Poker 4 x 4 Slot Tournament. I was in the final round and in first place at the time, and then my aunt pulls in the driveway and blows her truck's horn. I rush to the door, and in the process, forgot to Pause the game. The tournament continued and ended up getting 5th Place. Now, every time I play it, I remember the time I almost won that one Tournament, and how I hope my aunt doesn't come to visit while playing.
So what are some your memories that come up when playing games? Does this even happen to you, or am I just wierd? Okay, I already know I'm weird, so disregard that last part of the previous question.
