H has been playing Skyrim like mad for days. Every time I go in to see if he's still alive he's just repeatedly pressing one button doing something totally inane. Like earlier, he even taped the button down and then watched Burn Notice while the taped-button controller fought a wolf for him.
But "ZOMG! It's the greatest game ever!"
Huh? Then he explained that "They created a whole virtual world and you can do anything you want!" He had me read an article on Cracked about it. The author is all like "ZOMG! I can pick mushrooms and tan leather!"
Um, this is the world. You can pick mushrooms and tan leather here too, if you really want to. And - bonus - at the end of the day you'll have something to show for it, besides carpal tunnel.
Re: Someone explain this to me.
If you ever discover the answer to this please share. I'm totally serious.
If E could have played War Hammer and COD MW3 at once today he would have.
Oh and I asked about the mouse thing. E said you get points for sneaking and you have to hold the mouse to do that. It gets you experience and then gets you further along in the game.
Hear, hear. I can spend hours online or reading without giving it a second thought, but after ten minutes of gaming I'm wondering if the bathroom grout needs scrubbing.

Seriously! E is playing war hammer tonight and is sitting super intently on the other couch licking his lip in his super focused way that he does. I have to raise my voice and kind of be bitchy to get him to listen to me. Its so annoying!
I have no idea. I think I must have Rip VanWinkled about 6 months in there somewhere. I can't believe he's almost ready to start walking :-O
That drives me nuts too. I went so far as to make C get headsets for every game system so at the least I don't have to listen to the guys on the other side of the screen.
That's one thing I'm definitely thankful for - DH plays alone. None of that nonsense. When he lived in VA and his brother was still in college (before I met him) they used to play together, but not in a while.
I'm not particularly impressed with Skyrim- played for a few hours on my friends PC the other day.
However, I will be glued to the computer pressing my 3 buttons like a maniac once Diablo 3 comes out.

This was my issue exactly, coming home from a long day at work to listen to a bunch of boys cuss and yell at each other over a stupid game.

Actual conversations? Or just cussing at the screen and rage quiting twice an hour?
I swear, if that game and the one mentioned above weren't distracting R from the new Star Wars game that's almost but not quite out, I would probably be protesting against them both.
Yeah my husband is an all star for the National Hockey League...on PS3. Sigh. Thankfully he only plays when I'm gone since the last time he did it "just to decompress" was followed by a 10 minute meltdown on my inability to decompress, pee alone, eat w/ both hands, etc.
I'm pretty sure it looked like I was being exorcised.
Wife aggro!!
