Test of your gaming passion

If you had the chance to be in a room with all the things you need (a lover of yours, maybe, food you like, etc) without any of them things that are living being frustrated by it (you might wanna let them play with you for multiplayer, some friends too, and have other console copies for them to clock games on too) and you could spend all week with your body magically unable to sleep and not be harmed by it, playing any game thats been released before the week had begun on any console...

Could you handle it?

Playing games constantly, of any kind, etc. Maybe even random games.

I realized that I used to dislike games by disinguishing whether I thought the idea was boring or not (Gran Turismo, Nintendogs...) but I realized, I'll play ANYTHING! o.o I dun have the time or money to, but I am so obsessed with gaming I could play for months on end with the time to. I'll prefer diff games depending on the mood and they'd have to be half decent, but theres almost no games I hate outright. Except the extremely unheard of, low budget and badly done ones.

Could you handle playing for that long and not be bored? While your at it, how many hours do you play a day anyway? Do you like all the hours? Do you get bored towards the end? How many hours would you WANT to play? How important do you see games to you? etc.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

thats prolly a better stance than the one I have on gaming, my stance is money consuming and will prolly weirden my boyfriend out when I live with him ^_^ (I have sent him phone txts in the middle of the night before whining about me running out of shotgun shells on RE4...)

Only reason I am this obsessed with gaming is that, aside from cooking and spending time with my lover, its prolly the biggest thing in my life. Ever since a child, I have been obsessed with the feel of gaming. One person said they didn't like FF7 on another forum that much, but liked the legend surrounding it. o.o quoting them, "The otaku, kinda, the fanfics, big essays writen by the fan, the money it brought in, the feel." or something like that. Aside from my OBSESSION with the idea of playing a game and finding almost all of them fun anyway, I love the legend and characters surrounding the gaming world.

It might be unhealthy and pathetic to some, but thats how I see it.

Tbh, for social reasons, your way is much more logical, electric

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Heh, I'd play games for 8 hours a day everyday if I could. o.o My obsession I dun think will ever fade. Games affect me in so many ways... I get creeped out in survival horror, always get juice from fighting games, will play ANYTHING. I'm prolly too innocent not to get affected by them... or so my friends say. They poke fun at me calling me a little kid cause of how easy games change my mood x.x same with sweet foods.

I finally got MGS3 and Dragon Quest 8 yesterday, I'm gonna have a plug at them on monday. and, thus insues sleepless nights o.o

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

wow, how very suprising. I wish I wasn't as obsessed as I am sometimes, but wow, dun think I could quit games that easy and in such short time o.o how much do you enjoy the gameplay you DO get in?

How ya doing, buddy?

I guessed you played consistently, but do you find it entertaining during the short time each day you play? Its really not that much time, by my standards anyway. I'm suprised you can cope with that short ammount of time, but then I had a friend obsessed with games to the point of suiciding over losing his copy of Chrono Trigger, who played around that sort. So I guess time doesn't reflect interest all the time, more so endurance and obsession.

Elwe, thats near my longest streak. I used to play 10 hours a day all the time, but once got up to like 18 in a row. Not much more, but considering my normal is a decent ammount... Yeah. 14 ain't bad at all though. Especially for someone with a life. (eg not me)

I was speaking idiomatically.

Headache? Considering the ammount of vanilla coke, fanta, and fruits and other shit I was consuming, along with jumping about and throwing high kicks at the air through sugar high excitement, and how obsessed I was with the game and how I was sitting near the screen...


...You'll be suprised to hear no.

x.x 14 hours on FF7, 4 on Perfect Dark.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Considering I played MGS through a 2 day rental on a weekend despite alot of rather perverted distractions I engaged in with someone I know, uhh... Yah. It is prolly one of the most shortest game series I've ever played. Its worth the hype it gets for the quality, but they're still so damn short.

RPGs, take alot of time indeed. Theres text and you have to keep playing to get any ammount of gameplay in. In an action game you can get substance in five or ten minutes. In an RPG, it can take half an hour at least in some cases. o.o

FELIPE NO

Heh, if you need another MMO, then alot of people love WoW. But alot of hardcore MMOers I know all prefer Everquest to it for the bigger world and more options it has, as well as better coding. Everquest II is out now too, maybe you could try it out, and WoW too.

I need to finish RE4 too, and I just brought MGS3 x.x I want Grandia III! Last time I checked it wasn't out in UK. What happened? Is it out now?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?
