How can you say that Michael and his father had a passion for computer games?

Michael and his father were crazy about computer games. Both of them had the latest collection of computer games from Tornado, MeBabash to Black Belt and Kyrene's Kastle. Not only this, Michael’s father was the proud owner of Pentium 150 Mhz processor, with 256 of RAM, a 1.2 Gb hard disk drive and 16 speed CD ROM. Additionally there were speakers, a printer, a modem and a scanner. They would visit Computer Fairs because Michael’s father could not resist his temptation to buy whatever new that was launched related to gadgets and gizmos. Interestingly, they even possessed a virtual reality visor and glove, and a handful of the latest interactive psycho-drive games. Both were equally passionate about computer games.
