You gaming hypocrisies

[Till Death Do I Game]

"C.O.D is a game for console wielding, American douche bag frat boys with wet dreams of being war heroes without the consequences of actual war. I'm much too above it."

3 Months of C.O.D playing later...

"Suck it bitches!!!! Just got 8th prestige without even trying. Wanna ***** bout the constant head shots I'm feeding you? Well, I feel that a steady diet of lead death should be quickly followed by a GOD DAMN NUKE!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAAH!!!!"

The transformation began somewhere around the first 10 person kill streak......

[Grospoliner]

Getting riled up and calling someone a hacker when I know they're not and its just the crappy programming and design which causes me to lose.

(Plays Red Alert 2 against AI)

"GAH! The AI is so slooooww. I mean, it's the hardest difficulty and they only have a menial defense. Why don't they build themselves up?!!"

(Plays Rise of Nation: Gold against AI)

"GAH! The damn AI cheats! They've built up a massive, impenetrable army while I'm still trying to get a good resource stockpile! Useless bots!"

- ALSO -

(Plays Rome: Total War)

"Jeez, look at this crap! The enemy can't stand a chance against me! What kind of challenge is this?"

(Plays another R:TW battle)

"FUCK THIS PRICKS! They outnumber me 5 to 1! I can't beat this army! They cheated, I quit! *rage quit*"

Other than that, I usually don't have many hypocrisies (real life or gaming) other than the usual "After this round, I'm going to bed ..."

 

[reapercake]

People who play Facebook games and games like second life sims etc are sad! And should get a life!

Then spend 3 months capping a character in DDO! (yes almost 3 months solid when not working or sleeping!)

LOL!

Lol also this!

OMG MW3 WHY DO WE NEED MORE OF THESE oh cool a new mario

 

[Blemontea]

I HATE Remakes especially ones like the Ocarina of Time 3ds that add nothing remove nothing tweak very little and just bump up the graphics and in turn makes it look like crap FUUUU(smack) sorry...
But im a bit hyped for the Star fox and Snake eater remakes, for the 3ds. I am so getting the Ico Collection day ONE of its release.

 

[Zyntoxic]

"God, why don't any of the female characters wear decent clothes?"

"Oh, hey! You can take off Alistair's armor! Shiny..."

this

and also:

"why do women have such unrealistic features in games, why does my hero have to look like a supermodel..."
later while playing Fable "oh my f*cking god... the female hero looks butt ugly and can't wear any clothes without looking fat! I'm gonna force feed her some more celery."

also:

to my boyfriend: "you are such a blizzard-fanboy! you'd buy any crap they release, most of the time you play wow you don't even have fun, you whine that people suck, you get nerfed or run in circles in stormwind..."
later: "oooh, new dragon age, it only took one year to make while the previous game took nine, but hey it's bioware, so it has to be great!" *tears of disappointment* "oh well... but the next is gonna be GREAT!"

 

[BreakfastMan]

Me playing TF2:

"Dangit, pyros are so frakin' over-powered! They totally upset the balance of the game!"

later...

"Well, looks like we are losing. Better role pyro."

 

[teebeeohh]

Video Games 101 - it's only a cheap tactic if you're not using it. We're all hypocrites.

i actually didn't consider this when i made the OP.
I do fall on the sniper side of this, sniping over half the map through a narrow corridor not wide enough to dodge is so lame. But boy does it rack up kills.

 

[Bearsheep]

While I'm playing Dragon age
"How dare you use blood magic to kill others!"
/Activate blood magic
"Prepare to feel justice!"

 

[Smooth Operator]

Get killed... "Damn you and your cheap tricks!"
Kill someone... "Haha, owned you with my awesome tricks!"

Also may be guilty of some fanboyisms.

 

[Cheesus333]

When losing, or just not winning: "Fucking hell, it's just a game, calm down."

When winning: "SUCK. MY. HIGH. SCORE. *****."

I'm not even ashamed.

Also, with gaming release dates:

"Duke Nukem Forever's no good? No surprise there, more than ten years is way too long for a game to be decent when it finally comes out."

"OH MY GOD DIABLO THREE IS GOING TO BE THE BEST THING EVER I HAVE WAITED FOR THIS FOR OVER HALF OF MY LIFE!"

I retain that it will, and I have >.>

 

[Wuggy]

Everytime someone kills me:
"That was totally a cheap kill! I could've avoided that only if... [pick your reason]"

Everytime I kill someone:
"Pure skill, awww yeaaah."


Also, in WoW:
My Alt character gets ganked:
"You bunch of nolifes..." (says the guy with 4 max level characters) "...I will revenge this!"
I then proceed to log into one of my high-level characters, find the ganker, corpsegank him until he logs off and then gank everyone else I see.

 

[Soxafloppin]

"WOW you little m***** ****** ***** ***e** using a bloody n00b tube like a m***** ***** bet you look like a f***** carrot with a f***** *ag*****"
(get out my Ak/47 danger close nub t00b class)
"NOW TAKE IT BOI, YEAH, SQUEAL LIKE A PIG BOI, SQUEALLLLLLLL"

Looking at you Avatar while reading that just made the experience awesome.

 

[Sir Boss]

"I hate regenerating health, the guy who came up with it should be put in jail!...
...imma go play Mass Effect..." *shifty eyes*

 

[Ajna]

"Goddammit, stop spamming the mic with your shitty music." (Or its cousin: "Goddammit, stop singing along to an otherwise great song, you can't sing for shit.")

It's only annoying when I'm not the one doing it. When I'm doing it, I'm just enjoying my music, and you have bad taste.

I don't even try to defend the singing either. I know I can't sing, and I know that I forget the words sometimes, but...

Hell, I don't even have a caveat to offer. I just know it and ignore it.

 

[RyQ_TMC]

I don't like anime. The stylistic convention doesn't click with me, and they do this thing where they "add depth" by showing the characters engage in slow-paced, boring conversations for half of each episode.

Eh, I'll just get back to playing Valkyria Chronicles. Or Eternal Sonata, maybe.
