2008: a look forward to my year in gaming
grrlaction | 8:35 PM on 01.02.2008 21 comments




Oh, 2007.... how I loathed thee. You will forever go down as the worst year in my gaming life. I completed, on my own, two, count 'em, MOTHERFUCKING TWO games this year. I will grant you, some of this is my own fault; but seeing as we have one HD tv for two active gamers, and the balls-and-chain "has" to suck up all our gaming time for his "job," it's tough to get a game in edgewise. I have seen the ending frames of many more games, but we play most of our games as a "team," or whatever, and that's about as satisfying as splitting a tic-tac. I long for the days of beating a final boss by myself at three o'clock in the morning, after a marathon nine-hour gaming session, glistening with a sheen of taco bell/peanut m&ms/peach snapple sweat, crowing in triumph over the dead body of that shit-fucking fox demon at the end of Otogi 2.

So here's how it's gonna be: the goddamned tv is mine. Mine. Super Smash Brothers Brawl is coming out and everyone is playing it? Fuck off. Wanna try out the controls for Devil May Cry 4? Go cry in a corner. Grand Theft Auto IV looks fun to you? Wait your freakin' turn. Oh, and the handhelds are mine too. Have to review Ninja Gaiden DS? Tough titties, I'm playin' it first. I can feel the maniacal laughter bubbling up as I type.....

While I'm at it, I'm quitting my job, the house cleaning is at an end, and you can forget about sex, mister. I've got a lot of missing thumb cramps to make up for. I'll let you go down on me while I play MGS IV.

The amount of games I am anticipating this year makes me want to pee my pants out of fear and loss of funds.

We're just going to have to buy another TV. Plain and simple.

You tell him.

In fact, send him over to my house, I'd be happy to have someone to play with.

@ Nick: Ok, Mr. Moneybags, I'll call the TV factory and send them a few of our spare gold bars.

@ Topher: If everything works out properly you'll be chained in our basement.

Wow, the benefits of having a non-gamer wife (outside of a little MGS IV-related finagling) have never been more apparent.

Also, I'll take a gold bar. Just drop it off at the front door.

Slightly related, I'm really looking forward to seeing the first really messy gamer divorce. Imagine a couple who've been sharing a gamer profile, only have one special edition copy of their favourite game or who've let their significant other have access to their MMO character accounts. It's only happened in little bits so far but soon it'll get to shared pet epidemic levels!

This is why I'm investing in a VGA cable, oh and mini surround sound system, so I can actually play what I want when I want.

Still, I managed to get 13 games finished last year, a one game improvement over the previous year

Actually, if you just adopted Topher, then you'd have his TV too.
