Scholastic Books

Eight-year-old me was pretty stupid. It was time for the book fair, and probably brought only ten dollars. If you’ve ever been to a book fair, you know that the cat posters that all your classmates want costs twenty dollars. So with my pitiful amount of money, I walked to the corner alone and checked out all the normal books. Back then, I thought I was an extreme gamer, so I bought a cheat code book. Cheat codes are like cheating, but it’s not cheating. When I got home and opened the book, I realized something was very wrong. The cheat codes they had were for old consoles, like the PS3, the Wii, and the DS. Just DS, not the 3D version. Apparently some moronĀ  decided to sell an outdated book. Not that I blame them. It seems they saw “game” on the cover of the book, and thought it would be hip with the kids. It wasn’t. I did have a Wii, but the games in the book weren’t the same as the games I had. And half of the book wasn’t even cheats. It was stuff like “Beat Super Mario Galaxy once to unlock Luigi.” That’s not a cheat. Why won’t the book let me cheat? Because it sucks. 2/10 would not recommend.
