It always bothers me when I play shooters, especially FPS, and my Father, who was a Gunner’s Mate, constantly critics and criticizes me when I miss. I always feel ashamed.
Tribes: Ascend is one of the most underrated games on the market nowadays. It’s F2P and I’ve spent over 100 hours on it. I’ve never gotten tired for a second.
A few years back my [now ex-]boyfriend bought an XBox 360 against my wishes. I started playing with him in order to spend time together. I eventually met a group of friends on XBox Live, including a man I ended up falling in love with. We now share our lives as a couple and continue to play video games together. I call it my Halo 3 Love Story, since that is the game we met on. I will always love that game.
[SIDE NOTE: Ironically, my ex-boyfriend used my computer to meet a girl on RuneScape. He moved out of state to be with her. Happily ever afters all around.]
I liked the story of Black Ops more than Modern Warfare. I enjoyed the historical references and plot twists, and how you didn’t keep switching between characters you play.
Even if it gets me hate, the Call of Duty franchise will forever be one of my favorite franchises. CoD 4 was the first game that got me seriously into gaming. I spend my time playing mostly other games now, but Call of Duty will always have a place in my heart
Whenever I’m playing a game that lets me turn the sound off or otherwise have some sort of custom soundtrack functionality (i.e. replacing the music files), I have a habit of listening to music from other games, such as shmup soundtracks while playing Tetris, or Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune music while playing first-person shooters.
I know it makes no sense, but when Fontaine told me that he had impersonated a Chinese man for six months, I assumed he was actually Dr. Suchong in disguise. I figured that would explain Suchong’s childish outbursts against the other scientists and that god-awful Chinese accent. As for surviving that Big Daddy attack, well…
