Secret gaming confessions

[xblade0]

I played F-Zero GX for 48 hours straight. Would have gone longer, but my Gamecube died. (Had to get a new one.)

I sold my NES at a church auction. (I was six, okay!?)

I could never get more than two hours into Morrowind. Then I would restart. Done this about nine times now.

I've never been sexually aroused by a videogame. Ever. My loins are dead whenever I play.

I completed Guitar Hero 3 on Expert (including "Through the Fire and Flames") and promptly erased my memory card.

I've only cried over a videogame twice. The first was the aforemention Guitar Hero debacle. The second was when I was playing the Oblivion Mod "Ruined Tail's Tale" and Ruin was teaching a soul that never lived the concept of rainbows (was actually in "Butcher of Armindale", but fudge you). Oh, and when he died too. I still miss him.

I play "Mexican Goat-Killer"(La Chupakabra) style in Crysis. Basically cloak, grab someone, retreat into the bushes, execute, and repeat.

I enjoyed collecting the purple coins in Super Mario Galaxy.

I love online gaming.

I hate the internet.

I stayed up 'til dawn playing Halo 2 with friends. Which was weird because I hate the game.

I write a game review column for my school newspaper. Check it out at http://www.holland.wnyric.org/112610926124232147/lib/112610926124232147/_files/Nov_16_2007_online_version.pdf

I loathe Doom 3 with a passion. That piece of **** should go straight into the fires of Hell and climb back into Satan's bowels. I mean, why would there be so many ****ing keys on Mars in the future? Wouldn't someone think that maybe I don't want to fetch the purple card? Although some moments were funny.

**Walk up to door.**
Voice:"Retrieve panel for door."
You:"What?!"
Voice:"Do it now, *****."
**Get panel.**
You:"There."
Voice:"Good. Now you need the keycard."
You:"You gotta be ****ing with me!"
Voice:"No."
*Get card.*
Voice:"Insufficient security clearance. Upgrade at other side of the level."
You:"Gaa!"
*Leap towards pit of fire.*
Voice:"Wrong color card. You may not commit suicide."

I feel better now.

I tried to play Marathon recently (that source release thing), hated the FECK out of it.

I know! Unplayable, right?

I tried playing FF4 for about ten minutes and was bored half to tears. I got about two hours into FF6, logged off, decided never to look at it again and felt a great wave of relief.

I love Star Control 2, but have never played it without cheats.

And most shamefully of all:

Even though my top ten favourite games include Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask and Twilight Princess... I played A Link to the Past for a good hour and didn't feel the slightest tremor of fun. I found it really, really dull.

Maybe my standards are too high? I don't know, it just wasn't fun.

 

[hipholyte]

I never owned any Half-life games prior to the orange box.

I still play The Sims 2 regularly.

I enjoyed Deus Ex Invisible War.

I played Battlefield 2

I have never EVER purchased a Nintendo product and intend to keep it that way.

'nuff said

 

[zirka]

I think Achievments are the stupidest waste of time ever and whenever I get an achievement (by accident of course, I don't try to get any) I'm annoyed by its presence on my tv screen, well except thsoe ones worth 0, those are funny. I loved it when The Simpsons Game made fun of it by giving you an achievement for pressing the start button ant the title screen when you first boot it up. So ya, this also made me realize how crazy all you achievement point grabber ppl are and now I feel like some isolated lonely gamer. I HATE achievements and feel sorry for those who attempt to get them, for points that mean absolutely nothing but your own selfish PRIDE.

 

[thebobmaster_v1legacy]

I like Oblivion more than Morrowind.

 

[Jagdedge]

Instead of doing it myself, I had my friend play through the entirety of Portal.

My day-care teacher (was in one until the fifth grade, my dad had a fear of buses) beat more of Ocarina of Time than I did the first time through.

I enjoyed playing my Gamecube more than I did my Playstation.

Still a fan of Pokemon.

Enjoyed Republic Commando for the Xbox.

Rented the Orange Box for two weeks, never finished Episode 1 and never even started Episode 2. I pissed all my time away playing TF2.

Hated Duke Nukem.

 

[SeniorDingDong]

I ...

- never played CoD4 yet but the Demo
- like steam
- never finished Deus Ex, Zelda:OoT, Age of Empires 2 or Starcraft
- like the early pokemon games (gb + gbc)
- started gaming in 1989 (GB+Tetris), followed by NES & C64, but I missed a lot of golden classics : I never played any SNES, Playstation, Sega Console game , or any PC titel until 1997 !
- hate headsets,so I am totaly out of any kind of teamspeak activity
- bought a X360 controller for my PC, for racing games (DiRT and Sega Rally only support this one...) and N64 emulation
- play a lot of Turok 1 on my pc, must have finished it like 30times. Have no idea why it attracs me so much
- hate killing this cute raptors in Turok 2 (PC), I always used this tranquilizer rifle if possible to put them asleep to avoid hurting them
- bought Doom 1 & 2 for the GBA, dont get me wrong, they are cool, but... wow what a waste of money ~~
- could not finish Turok 2 (PC) on my own, I used my little brother as an advanced automap, he had an awesome talent to memorize space, routs and rooms
- played hours and hours the shit games Panzer Commander & Luftwaffe Commander
- dont own anykind of nextgen consoles, closest one I would like to buy is a Gameboy DS for Tetris DS
- am not a very skilled, fast or creative gamer. I just memorize and learn maps, tracks, routs, standart strategies etc... I would never figure out a building order in RTS games on my own, I would just try to adapt a working one as good as possible. So I am better in "easy to learn" games like C&C 3 and CoH, but I totaly suck in complex games like Supreme Commander. I have some kind of library in my head "enemy x uses strack y conter it with z", but I am always lost in new situations.

And finaly for the lulz :

- think the (nude skinned) beast race girls in oblivion are hot, I even made a foto session with my female argonian char

 

[RabbitDynamite]

I tried once to masturbate in front of the Mass Effect sex scene and failed.
(You know what I mean)

You win the internet, sir.
Lesee... I never finished half-life.
I enjoyed Red Steel
When I played pokemon Red, I used the messigno. trick to create rare candies and raised new parties of pokemon to beat the elite four - and did this nearly every day for entirely too long.
I downloaded sexually charged dialogue packs for Baldur's Gate 2.
I've gone through emulator addiction periods.
I like steam.

 

[Sylocat]

I have a better mastery of the English language then the majority of Xbox Live users

So does 90% of the human race who are NOT Xbox Live users, including the ones who don't speak a word of it.

I am extremely envious of Sonic the Hedgehog and I love Amy Rose.

*blushes furiously* so do I. Amy was my first game crush. As bad as the Archie comic series was and is, I still have my old ragged copy of issue #25 when she was the guest star.

Okay, I thought of a few more gaming confessions:

1. I love collecting strategy guides, I get game guides for games I don't even own. I always head for those sections of every bookstore I go into and spend a few minutes browsing that section before I do anything else.
2. I almost always play as female characters whenever I am given the option to.
3. I have never liked the survival horror genre. I have literally never played any zombie-shooting game that wasn't exactly like every other zombie-shooting game I've ever played.

 

[SeniorDingDong]

I want to add one point

- dislike to play as a female, if she is obviously designed to pleasure the nerds... (Croft, Nariko, all the Doa4 sluts etc)

 

[EdForever]

i got baned from bt surftime which offered 56k internet usage at no additional cost
during the hours of 6pm-8am and all weekend. we got banned for being on it to much.
one week me and bro slept during day and was constantly on it for thoes times and got banned despite it blatently saying on the advert we could do that.
and all thanks to the games ive now been playing 10 years Ultima online.

 

[Chalee]

I like Bioshock's Vitachambers and think they were a stroke of genius.

*runs*

 

[Swenglish]

Enjoyed Republic Commando for the Xbox.

So did I. One of the most unappreciated games on the Xbox, if you ask me.

Why thankyou

 

[Zaakar]

I've had hl2 on steam since the release, but never finished it. Though I have three friends who used my acc to beat the game. (they used it to play original hl with expansions too, but so did I)

 

[TobyTyler06]

I don't actually play video games.

 

[TheCakeIsALie]

I really want to try World of Warcraft (overall, is it worth it?).

Trust the word of an ex-addict. It seems worth it while you are playing it and you think it is the best thing ever. then after you have ranked up nearly 6 months of play time you walk into a games store and say "Wow! I really have missed out on a lot." When you realise 50+ amazing new games have been released in the time you played and you didn't notice and/or didn't give a f***. That and when you finally quit you want your 6 months back.

 

[TheCakeIsALie]

Oh, and my big bad is....Clive Barker's Jericho.

 

[REDPill357]

I never even got to the elevator in System Shock 2.

I'm in the catacombs in Deus Ex.

I play TF2 with my dad.
