Quantcast



This is perhaps the greatest video I have seen all week. It's definitely the greatest video you've seen all week. A hardcore grandma plays Overlord and finds herself stuck at a particularly nasty boss fight. Her reaction is one that I'm sure we can all sympathize with, her language one that I'm sure we've all used. I love Overlord from the bottom of my heart, but I really can agree with Hardcore Grandma's stance on that particular part of the game. 
 
Also, since she's a female gamer, I'll be sorely let down if half the Destructoid readers don't want to seduce her over the Internet. Just remember that I saw her first!

Grandma Hardcore has a great blog where they constantly update what she's playing. It's also got pictures from her huge strategy guide collection. It's like a whole office full! It's really funny to hear her get angry at games you've actually played and got stuck in.

If only moar of the older generations would approach video games with the tenacity and hunger that she displays... the world would be a much better place.

I've checked her web site from time to time since first hearing about her in EGM(or was it GI?) any way she kicks ass.Mabie I would have actualy wanted to goto grama's when I was a kid if she was as cool as this lady. I wonder if she give her grand kids "hamd me downs" of games she beats, that would have rocked.

I've seen this lady before (not sure if it was this clip). I kinda wish she was my grandma, but I'm mostly glad that she's not because she seems like she'd be a beeotch.

She looks like a sweet old thing. Especially the way she looks into the camera with those lost eyes, exclaiming, "The blue thing got me."

Precious!

Ahhh, it's scary to think that I will be old and still playing video games. Must go out in a blaze of glory while young and pretty! Haha.
