Do you have a competitive household? We do! I think my husband’s first words were “I went” or, “first place”! Mr. ultracompetitive has a hard time letting a little ones win. And now, Handsome Boy is getting that competitive drive. So, when I was approached by reviewing a new game bundle I figured this would be right up our alley.
The flarePlay is a gaming system that delivers video games directly to your TV. For a monthly charge, you will have access to 100+ games that are in the catalog; with new ones added monthly.
The flarePlay Gaming System is really easy to set up. Plug-in the receiver to the USB port on the flarePlay micro-console, connect the console to the TV using an HDMI cable, then connect the USB cord from the TV to the micro console. Turn on your TV find The input that matches to where you plugged in the device make sure your Internet connection is set and your off and running. (See diagram for easy setup).
To get involved, all you need to do is sign up. Once you’re registered, they will send you a game bundle that contains everything you need: a micro-console, a game controller and the cords. The best part, that’s all you need – no disks are required in order to run the system, meaning no crazy mess.
Right now, flarePlay is hosting a special: $30 for 3 months of flarePlay service and get a free microconsole ($99 value)*.
Once I introduced my kiddos to the game, they were hooked. My son more so than my daughter as he had discovered there were a few racing games that caught his eye. For my daughter and I, we fell in love with a fashion game – unfortunately, she won’t let me put down the gaming controller – “Mommy, you have to keep going” is all I hear from her. Even the Hubster got involved and started playing a few games. Thank goodness winter break is almost here – we’re not going to get anything done!
