Amazing! It's insane how much of that industry has changed. My son was amazed that to get a video game growing up, I had to go Wal Mart, hunt down an employee, have them get the keys to the glass and then pay for it. Then drive home, take it out of the box and play it.

But there was nothing like that feeling. Ripping open the shrink wrap. That was simply the best.
