Not my list, it came from gamedaily.com. I came across it during my usual internet browsing today. I'm not sure if its been posted before, I did a search and didn't see it. If it has, whatever. The list is as follows for those of you who don't want to click the link below, but if you do I promise there is a hot girl pic with #2 on the list so its not all bad.

So of this list I have done numbers, 1, 7, 10, 13, 17, 18, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24.
Some of them I'm not that hip to like dressing up as a video game character, again not my thing but if you ladies like to dress up as one I'm all for it.
I would love to buy or make my own arcade cabinet, and to visit an arcade in Japan.
Any others you think should get added? I'd add have sex while playing a video game, goes against the stigma that gamers don't get laid that much, but that is next on my list for sure.
#8 - What.
Who did you beat on #24?
Played an old high school friend who used compete in fighting games like mortal combat and street fighter regionally. He was over at my house playing me in Street Fighter and I had him backed in a corner and was slowing getting his health down and he couldn't do anything. Its a great memory of mine. Although previous to that and after I lost terribly, but that one match I was king.
@sadistic
I have a friend with a female character in WoW, and he goes arounds virtually stripping. And gets gold for it.
Um.. Liam, stay far away and don't ever speak to me again.
Yeah, sure; you have a 'friend' ;)
You can tell us that it's you, we won't think any less of you.
I wish I had the natural ability to compete like the pros do now, but the amount of time I'd need to get that good I just don't have. :)
Shit dude, that looks like my daily to do list.
for 14, you're talking about Resident Evil 2 right? cause if so...you might state that for those who dunno what you're talking about.
and come on. Most of us NES/Gennesis/SNES gamers have thrown our controllers more than enough to break it. Majority of us here should have that done.
i used a line from bully on one of my friends(its a girl) Its from when you try to kiss a boy and he says "Im hot, your hot.Lets make out"
lol, #8.
I've done that...people give you money like crazy.
2. Buy a dedicated MAME cabinet -- or build your own
Weak...Why aspire for that? Buy a REAL cabinet instead of a glorified PC.
"for 14, you're talking about Resident Evil 2 right? cause if so...you might state that for those who dunno what you're talking about."
It's in the description in the article I linked. Didn't think to put it in the list directly here and I'm to lazy to edit it in now as I'm about to leave work for the day. Good catch, and I think we know who's an RE fan. :)
"6. Play a game for more than 24-hours "
In a row?!
But I don't like teh Haloes
Good list, but I'll never do number 25, ever.
I've done like three of those. Laymer.
Screw number 25 - the rest of the list is going on my wall, above my bed.
Oh, and also screw number 8.
Let's see... I've done 1, 7, 10, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, and 25.
That's 14/25. Not bad.
I think I've done all but 5.
wow, i'm in good shape. 'girl you give me pac-man fever! waka waka waka'
lessee.. I've done...
1, 5 (Detective Gumshoe), 6 (if not 24 then close to it), 9 (Dtoid?), 10 (Bleach DS), 13 (haven't we all at this point?), 15 (My PS3 dumpster baby!! <3), 16 (Bullet Witch.. NEVER AGAIN!!!!! I stopped after the second part of the first level.), 17, 19 (destroyed a DC controller trying to fix it...), 20 (Wii.. twice.. and SSBB), 21 (BOOM! Easy.), 22, 23 (I think I vaguely remember doing one..), 24 (lol yes).
15/25 :P
21/25 :O
I GUESS you could do #24 in a fighting game. But then again if you get beat by a single repeatable move, you're not really a professional are you?
I love when I make a female character on any MMO. The free crap you get, it's so funny.
