Like TornadoC said,you have to have that passion in you for videogames to really understand them.Everyone is addicted to something,everyone has a drug of choice,some more harmful than others.Some consume your time,others may consume your life.You love movies and books,I love movies,books and videogames.My friend,X,loves heavy metal,the junkie on the corner loves meth.Everything is subjective.
@theshnaw1 that makes no sense, i was just pointing out that morrowind is part of the scrolls series. i wasnt bashing your opinion. i've never played morrowing so i can't really say anything about your opinion.
i think TJs right about games, even if a game is amazing and praised i still wastes like 80 hrs, and these World of Warcraft people really devote their lives to the game.
See the thing is, what TJ doesn't realise is gamers, hardcore gamers at least treat games the way he treats movies. When you say "One game every three years is enough", that's like saying one movie every three years is enough, it's alien to gamers. And hell yes, if a future girlfriend said "me or gaming", I'd pick gaming, sorry bitch, there's millions of you. Just like if a future girlfriend said "give up movies or me" TJ would think "WTF bitch are you serious?!" and he's pick movies.
I'm confident enough that I won't bend over backwards for a vagina and I'm the pathetic one? Fair enough, you're oh so manly because you would give up everything you enjoy for sex... but dude, that's really fucking pathetic. Unless you're the ugliest fucker on the planet, women are easy to come by, if you're prepared to sacrifice what for me is a lifelong hobby, for a bit of pussy you are a sorry example of manhood. Think about it. Would you give up your most loved hobby for pussy?
@TornadoCreator sorry but I am (well at least used to be) a hardcore gamer and I would give it up in a second if a hot girl wanted me to, unless i had some other ass lined up
That's really rather pathetic. If you think so lowly of yourself that you'd give up one of, if not your main hobby, for a "hot girl" then you put far too much value on sex. I think highly of myself, I'm an interesting and decent guy and I deserve to be with someone who respects me and my hobbies. If they want me to give up my hobbies they're trying to change me, which means they don't like me in the first place. I'm not so pathetic that I would value sex over my own pride...
And all I'm saying is I'm not so pathetic that I'd need to get sex from someone who dislikes video games so much she'd make me stop playing them. There are billions of women on the planet, find one that ISN'T fucking nuts. There's not a girl on this planet that's so good in bed I'd give up video games because I can have sex whenever I want it with a different girl who doesn't give a shit about my games, or even better enjoys playing them with me like my last three girlfriends.
@TornadoCreator Yeah but, sex with hot girls is usually better than with ugly girls (not saying that your gf's are ugly or that i get with ugly girls) I just personally, even though I play video games alot, would rather have lots of sex with a hot girl than play video games. That doesn't make me pathetic, it's just saying that I would give up something I enjoy for something I enjoy more.
Fair enough, I've had some average looking girlfriends who I dated for their personality and I've had some drop dead gorgeous girlfriends but again, their personality won me over because I find "hot girls" are often self absorbed and conceited bitches. The funny thing is, the two hottest girls but also the nicest girls I dated where both gamer-girls. One was an Xbox and anime fan, another a mainly PC-gamer. Both of these girls also played Dungeons & Dragons. Gamer-girls = HOT.
@TornadoCreator Yeah I guess it depends what the girl was like in other ways, if she was asking to stop playing for some legitimate reason like she wanted to spend more time with you or something else then yeah I probably would but if it was like some shit like she was embarressed her BF played video games then no I just wouldn't even get on with someone like that haha
@TornadoCreator yeah, but movies don't cause you to take up an extreme amount of time constantly. like he says. "a movie is a 2 hour thing. i don't care if i waste 2 hours. but if i waste 78 hours of my time on a game"
True, but its a completely different hobby. If a game was only 2 hours long, usually I'd feel cheated as the game has to appeal in different ways. It's interactive rather than passive entertainment, as such it's a more in depth form of entertainment.
