Gaming tragedies.

Possibly the time I got a really nasty virus that convinced my computer that windows explorer was a virus, and tried to destroy (not wipe, destroy) the hard drive.

I had to reinstall everything. How big is WoW now? 25GB? That took a while.

Holy crap, that...Is the most brilliant virus I have ever heard.

You got the awesome virus dude, be proud.

Being proud of that is like being proud of being the first ever infected of the zombie apocalypse.

But you would cause humanity's happiness, as they mow down zombies with lawnmowers and chainsaws.

Overall: Not having time or money to keep up with it. Up until my junior year of college I was living in the dorms having fun with gaming in general. Then I started playing world of warcraft and that inevitably made me lose interest in gaming. I quit the MMO last year, but since then I haven't kept up with it. I spend time at work, classes, with my girlfriend, and those take up a lot of time I would spend playing games, but also my systems are still kind of packed up and I'm too lazy to pull out an old one and play it. All in all I've fallen out of gaming in the past year and a half, and that makes me quite sad, really.

What makes it worse is that I ignored the 3 warnings that pretty much said "This is a virus, run it at your peril" and opened the file anyway.

my PC has a ton of viruses on it, but luckely i threw out the MalWare, so its rendered harmless, tho. i got it in through some website that could convert Youtube videos into Media Player files (the files actually worked).

its getting a bit old, and im thinking of getting a desktop once i´ve bought my HDTV. its beginning to run slower, being able to overheat (ive never had any heat problems until January or so) and its lagging a bit more on games. oh, and the Home button is missing.


im sorry, Extensa 7620G. you´ve served me well, but your beginning to break down...

I accidentally got my brother interested in modern warfare. Now he won't stop demanding a turn on the xbox.
