    Default Well, I did it.

    I plopped $50 down at Gamestop today to reserve my XBox 360. All 3 of us, me, my wife of 15 years, and my 7th grade daughter are all hard core gamers. Tell me, how many husbands, wives, and kids fight over who gets to play Animal Crossing? Man, my wife is the master of that game, beat me and got a gold statue in her name. Every time I walk by it in her town, she reminds me of how I lost :rolleyes2 . Does anyone else here have families that play or is it just indviduals?

    in my family, my brother and i like to play video-games. he's probably with his final girlfriend since they look just about right for eachother. not the hardcore gamer, but at least she likes some form of video-games: The Sims.

    It's only me and and my two brothers that like to play. My dad will play once in awhile, but only something that's in NamcoMuseum, like Pac-Man, or Galaga. Something nostalgic.

    My wife has no care for such things. She does enjoy watching me play, though.

    My sister goes for the retro stuff that we played as kids - Mario Kart, Donkey Kong Country, Super Mario Brothers, and so on.

    My sister and I play video games frequently. My mom and dad used to play puzzle games for the NES, as well as some games for an ancient PC. The most "real" game that my dad has ever played was Mega Man 2.

    Through my amazing powers of Treachorous Fishy persuasion, I've managed to turn my two younger sisters into gamers. Not the best move in retrospect- it made paying for an Xbox easier, but now I have to share it. Although recently, they've lost interest in it, leaving it to me and Halo 2 Live.
    My dad plays a few games- mostly FPS and RTS games, his favourite of each being Doom (the mixture of Ultimate Doom/Doom 2) for PSX and Age of Empires 2: The Conquerors. Unfortuanately, it means having him on the computer for 6-hour sessions, but it also means he's willing to pay for a £1200 computer we don't really need.
    As for my mum... well, she hates games, computers, and almost anything designed since 1874. Including trains that go over 32mph.

    A guy in my guild on WoW is always on while his wife is at work, because she always wants to get on. I still think they should just get two compys and play at the same time, but that's just me. It is funny to hear the guy say stuff like,"Wife's home, gotta go guys!! Later!" though.... :rolleyes2


    Anytime I see something screech across a room and latch onto someones neck, and the guy screams and tries to get it off, I have to laugh, because what is that thing. - Jack Handy
