I had to rope ma into helping me pass the interrogation in MGS , "push O ma fast!!!!" keep pushing it!!

hahahaha, yeah, i tryed that too, she didn´t liked it after a wile and pressed the "give up" button by mistake hahaha

Ma did that aswell, i fucking hated all that shit you had to do if you wanted another go, last possibkle save point was at least a hslf hour back stupid hideo kojima and his wanted to actually punish you for failing. Tried to get her to play halo aswell when i first got xbox........ never again.

My Dad played Duke Nukem for quite a while.

 

[Gildedtongue]

My dad used to boast that he was the Pong champion of Burlington, Wisconsin. My mother found and was addicted to Tetris.

 

[eelel]

the original pong

 

[Blue22]

Dad: Super Mario Bros

Mum (Mom): Wii Sports.

Yeah, it's what you expect.

 

[IamQ]

SSX 3, and shes bloody good at it.

 

[Cilliandrew]

Haha, way back on the Commodore 64, my mom got hooked on "Wizard of Wor". It's so strange if you knew my mom that she would enjoy something like that, but we used to have epic 2-player sessions of Wizard of Wor. It was awesome.

Nowadays she plays stuff like Mahjong and Tetris.

My mum still plays a lot of adventure games, she's kind of hooked playing animal crossing on the Wii at the moment.

Dad: Don't quite know. I know one of his university buddies had an Atari, and he has mentioned playing Space Invaders and Asteroids at various points.

Mom: Likely the Legend of Zelda. Story goes that they rented an NES system for a weekend along with Zelda. They played it all weekend, and soon ended up buying the system.

My mum played Resident Evil 4 as her first ever game and this is what happened


Faaaaail XD Thought RE4 is quite a hard first game

 

[DrDeath3191]

Don't take this the wrong way, but that was rather painful to watch.

 

[PartyMonkey]

My mum and dad both played some game called trapdoor on the commodore which is...Fun?

 

[JanatUrlich]

Don't take this the wrong way, but that was rather painful to watch.

Yeah and now try to imagine how painful it was to be me in that situation.

 

[MBlockHead]

Got my mom to play Sonic on the Sega Master System, it was painful to watch. My dad's first try was on Crash Team Racing and he wasnt half bad!

 

[lykopis783]

I don't know what the very first game my dad played was, but I know the first game I watched him play when I was like 4... Redneck Rampage. It will always hold some odd grungy corner of my heart.

 

[Ashtovo]

the first game my parents played was mario cart for the super nintendo.

 

[Connor Lonske]

My ma can play fighting games OK, and my dad plays Super Smash Brothers all the time.
