Prototype 2 Does Not Make For A Heartwarming Mother’s Day Card

Activision picked a rather awkward game to help remind players that Mother’s Day is this Sunday, May 8. I guess they are trying to say make your mother happy this Sunday, or consume her later and experience her disappointment first-hand.

The Games My Mother Played

May 1st 1980 I came home from school to find my mother waiting there for me, a giddy smile on her lips. She always loved birthdays. Back then we were living in an apartment, my younger sister and I sharing one room, my older brother and sister sometimes sharing another, and birthdays were the one time my mother, taking care of four children on child support and a modest income from the dancing school she ran, would really get to splurge on her kids.


Happy Mother’s Day

I know a lot of you have memories of your mum surprising you for the holidays or your birthday with a game or, better yet, a console, or a birthday party at the local arcade or mini-golf. That’s one of the best things about mums, when you’re a kid; when they come out of nowhere, without a word of begging, pleading or conversation, with the coolest, bestest, most non-Mom thing ever in the world.

My brother and I both have an elephant’s memory. We often astound our parents with perfect recall of years, dates, things said going back 25 years or more. I know Pac-Man was the only game that ever really amused my mother. But sitting here, racking my brain, I cannot ever recall her playing a video game.
