The 9th Circle Of Gamer Hell

[NerdElf]

I'm allready living in a hell world for a gamer, since most of the gaming population is made up of 12 year olds playing Counter Strike.
Also, no online services from consoles. Nintendo Sony and Microsoft forgot my country exists on the map, so they choose not to let us use Live, Network or Shop Channel.
Then there's the fact that hardly anyone releases games in here. And that most game distributors only have a really limited number of games.
Combine that with the high price it's awfull.
Piracy is also a problem, since almost nobody buys games at all.
Gaming community, Y U NO GIMME RIGHTS?
Well, at least the internet is better than yours. Seriously, rated 4th-5th in the world.

Random Tall Grass Pokemon Encounters... in every game. EVERY SINGLE GAME...

You engage fire in your FPS... WILD PIDGEY APPEARS!
You're thinking about the right choice in your RPG... WILD RATATA APPEARS!
You're playing your RTS online... WILD NIDORAN APPEARS!

And yes... that also means random tall grass Pokemon encounters inside of your random tall grass Pokemon encounters while you play Pokemon.

Randomly changing controls?

Oh Yeah thats mine XD

The Ninth Circle of Gamer Hell is reserved for players who hog all the items in team games and kill stealers. It is a game consisting of one long escort mission sprinkled with random quick-time events based on luck while 14-year old psychopaths question your sexual preferences over teamspeak.

Easy: You get new, cool awesome games all the time {You watch cool reviews, great trailers etc.}

THEN, when you install it... it crashes. So you have to read some forums/find the problem. You get through it, start it up... and it crashes again. And so on and so on.

After a while you have a bug rendering it unplayable or crash/freeze the game and NOBODY else has got the problem. So you end up having worked 6 hours or so to get the game running, GLIMPSED at the awesomeness... but can never really play it.

Next good game comes out in three months *g*.

The worst?

Whenever you are about to win or lose a fight the character yells "Wrong!" and resets the entire event.

Wireless keyboards and mice, but the only batteries? Are Rayovac--the batteries you buy when you're sick of paying for GOOD batteries. And your headset cable is frayed, so the sound cuts out when you move your head.

Well. Currently, my gamimg hell would be getting stuck in time on November 10th. So close to Skyrim... so close.... and yet so far

Stuck playing the game you hate the moust

[putowtin]

[SmegInThePants]

EMP's destroying all electric devices, noooo! no computer games, no console, no phone, no kindle, no psp, no internet.

 

[Sion_Barzahd]

What if playing video games gave cancer ?

Honestly, the daily mail have probably said that they do at some point. -.-"

OP: My personal gamer hell would be some whiny twat telling you obvious solutions to the game you're playing every five minutes.

Which btw, i had to put up with when playing mirror's edge in the gaming lounge at my university.
"Hey you have to get to that ledge!"
"Yeah i know that."
"You gotta press that big button on that panel"
"I know, i just did that."
"Follow that red thing."
"No... I don't need to, this way is faster..."

It went on, and on. For HOURS.

In all honesty, having to have ourselves go through all the games we've played. I believe most of us would be eternally screwed into being tortured through the pain of our constant deaths, whilst we try to do things we could do as our in game protagonist, but we ultimately can't as we are only ourselves.
That, or seeing all the trailers for great new games coming out, actually getting them, but EVERY SINGLE TIME you get it, a gamebreaking bug stops the game the second you leave the title screen.

Those rooms in an RPG where you genuinely have no idea where the exit is.

Just repeated to breaking point.

How about E.A. Games only? For the rest of your miserable life your stuck with E.A. and their unskippable intro clips. Your hardware just doesn't support any other form of publisher.

Well, If you cut out Bioware it will probably be worse than hell.

Just change in the ini file, no more shitty unskippable cinema.

OT: As I said in another topic, stuck only having Tiedus and Squall to play as/with/against.

Having to teach your mom how to play a real game (none of the farmsville crap).
