Typical back in my day, get off my lawn, walking stick shaking, nostalgia blinded fools. But if they insist on living in the past then let them, leaves more present goodies for us.
Give it another decade or so and we'll have people complaining that games aren't as complex as they were "back in my day" and they'll point to the triple A games of today and say "we should go back to stuff like that" while the newer generation roll their eyes at grandpa and carry on playing...
I expect children to cry, scream and shout. It's what they do. When adults do it, especially in threads like these where they mask it by pretending to be intellectual, a little bit more of me is consumed by rage. Not to mention the sheer over-blown ego required to actually think you deserve some...
Implying all parents have access to sitters at all times of day and night, or the cash to pay for them or the inclination to leave their child/children with a stranger who often isn't that much more than a child themselves (I've never seen a babysitter any older than 16). No lets force all...
I'm sure everyone in this thread drove their parents to distraction on some occasion or another or cried in public as a baby or made too much noise etc. You annoyed everyone around you then and now in turn you have to suffer the new generation.
How self entitled are you people?
Nicotine - Thankfully switching to an E-Cig means I can puff away all day without having to worry about my lungs so much.
Games - Obviously, current addiction is Alpha Protocol. Sneaky sneak!
Warhammer 40K Literature/Universe - I think the fluff and video games are fantastic but I find the...
It'd be nice if just for once we could have a story like this without over reacting morons screeching "LOST FAITH IN HUMANITY" or some equally moronic douche bags proposing their own favourite form of Eugenics.
I've played both series pretty equally in my lifetime and I've enjoyed them both, still do to this day. But if I could go back in time I'd kill the creators of both of them before they were even thought up. The constant, petty, back and forth bitching over which "cluster of pixels with a logo...
I don't mind being called a gamer, but what does irritate me is people who abuse the term. For example the "I'm a real gamer I only play x or y herp derp" crowd. Or the "Casuals/CoD players/fans of a game I don't like aren't really gamers!"
Perfect example in this very thread
If I could...
That's the Escapist for you, pretentious and smug all around (for the most part anyway). Just mentioning CoD and Skyrim in the same sentence will cause plenty of people to break into a cold sweat.
It's kind if pitiful.
