My life as a videogame widow.
grrlaction | 9:28 PM on 07.12.2007 34 comments


I'm starting a blog. What of it? It won't involve much first-person hands-on game experience, because my husband has sucked the joy and spontaneity out of gaming, at least for me. How, you ask? Well, by playing games constantly, that's how. I defy you to muster up excitement for playing The Darkness when you've just sat next to someone playing it for nine hours. So I'm going to talk about what it's like watching someone else play games. Fun, no? Give it time, this is what's going to make me famous. Well, this and the homemade porn.

Everyone has to start somewhere and not everyone is "1337" with computer :D

Watching someone else play games can be fun if you intentionally try to mess them up by making annoying comments about every little thing. Backseat driving ftw!

@ Grim: True 'nuff, but then I don't get anyone. And then no one's happy.

@ Blindside: I have never tried less in my life to be anything as I have tried to be l337. I spell with letters. I jest, I jest. I just didn't realize we were using bbcode here. But that is so beyond the point here which is: add me as a friend. I'm needy.

I meant any. Not anyone. I'm going to bed. After I finish RE4: Wii. Which I only get to play because Nick's rocking faces off in LA.

I guess i would read some of the blogs but the homemade porn has me way more interested. When do we get to see Nick in the nude?

This is why I'm halfway glad my girlfriend doesn't play games as much as I do. If I had to watch her play halo multiplayer or something, or wait for her to get done, I'd go fucking nuts.

Actually, I'd probably buy her her own Xbox360.

Wait, you're Nick's wife?

I'd say don't suck but...enter joke about blowjobs here. I'm too tired and lazy to put effort into it anymore really.

Welcome 2 da internets.

Nick,

I think Blindsides is makin' da moves on yer wife. Maybe E3 wasn't a good idea.

@grrlaction

The best remedy to this situation is to get ahold of the games your husband wants to play and beat them (acheivement points too) before he gets a crack at them. To most guys, that's as bad as (you) going out and getting drunk (but not THAT drunk) with a male coworker who has the hots for you. it creates a lot of fear and jealousy that plays in your favor.

Play his games before he does and he gets disinterested in the action of the game. Especially if you rip through the game on easy mode and skip all the story bits until you get to the ending.

@ Nex: No. I'm a figment.

I can't believe all the comments here; and I didn't even have to flash anyone! Of course a good 40% of them are querying the availability of naked Brutal movies, so I guess I shouldn't count my chickens. Or whatever.

Tomorrow: Why Resident Wiivil can lick my anus. And I won't even wax first.

pictures of the homemade porn or it didn't happen.

I'm not sure how I feel about sexually assaulting Nick's wife, so I'm going to comment on the other stuff she said.

I don't really like watching other people play games either. Let's do multiplayer or something, Christ.

That being said, you should look into setting up two gaming rigs, so you can both play at the same time. It's what my brother and I did. We each play our single-player campaigns, but we can still say "hey, check this shit out!" I find it enjoyable.

It's about time! Welcome. Here's to the future embarrasment of your hubby.

Anal licking? That sounds interesting
Nick Chester's Destructoid Blog
This bitch is lying! She totally has been playing Resident Evil 4 Wii Edition and I've barely touched it.

She's evil.
Tron Knotts's Destructoid Blog
The Wii is supposed to bring family's together, not tear them apart.

:(
