Go play outside!

[Bema Jinn]

Do your parents/partner/spouse ever tell you to get off the computer? How do you get out of it?

Me? I'm lucky, my girlfriend is also a gamer! =]

My parents don't on the account that I live in a village where about 70% of the populace is over 50.

And there is like one other person my age in the village but hes a twat so yeah, fuck going outside!

I do play outide. That's what handheld consoles were made for.

Handheld consoles aren't the same though, i don't feel like i can truly get into a game on handhelds.

Plus you can't go far with today's generation of batteries!

Why the hell would I want to go outside into the cold just to get annoyed by chavs when I can have much more fun playing video games with friends online?

Have you found your handheld to be a chav magnet? Or do you just happen to live in an area with a high chav density?

Go outside to play...?

Wait...would that just make me look like a paedophile at the age I'm at?

I agree completely. If there was more to do in my City (other than drinking myself into a coma every weekend), and it wasn't infested by Chavs then i would probably game a lot less.

I'm way too old to be playing outside

 

[Zhukov]

But my extension cord doesn't reach that far...

 

[daveman247]

But its dark scary and wet out there!

 

[BlackStar42]

What is this "outside" of which ye speak?

 

[ImperialSunlight]

I'm sorry, this is going way over my head. What is this "outside" you speak of?

 

[wooty]

If the weathers good then I do go outside, for 5 minutes as I walk from my door to the pubs doors.

If only I had friends who thought the same way and who didnt constantly think that they are tanks, elves or that their k/d actually matters.

I have this magical moment every year with a few of my other 20+ year old friends where we play outside near the ruins of an old fort up north, play hide-and-seek and capture the flag (hoodie). This happens one weekend every February. The next one is coming up weekend after next and I can't bloody wait. It's great fun.

For the remaining 363 days of the year, I am a hermit and stay indoors playing video games. Why? The village I live in is literally just houses with a couple of convenience shops, and the closest town is full of rapists and murderers and drug barons. I'd rather take my chances indoors. Plus I'm a little too old to be playing outside with the neighbours, and a little old for my dad to shoo me outside, haha.

I live alone and I can often go days without talking to a single person so I'm in luck. No-one nags me. Just me... alone...

 

[Burst6]

last time i went outside some bastard in a flying saucer kept shining a high powered flashlight in my eyes.

I swear this guy has it out for me. Even if I'm inside he tries his best to annoy me as much as possible. I'm thinking of removing my windows.

He goes away at night, but i think he sets his lazy brother to come after me. It's not really bright enough to be annoying, and he doesn't even come sometimes, but I'm still scared.


I tried calling the police but they just laugh at me. Damn corruption. I bet the police are being paid off by the guy.

 

[Puddleknock]

I went outside once, BIG mistake.

 

[Just_A_Glitch]

My parents used to do that, but I'm kind of 21 now and out of the house a lot, so... No. Not anymore.
