Post # 1000

So my husband wants to buy another Weapon of Mass Ignoring. This time he wants a PSP.Playstation Portable for those of you lucky enough to not live with a person addicted to RPG’s.

Yes, a person can be addicted to games. Here is a classic example of an addicted Gamer


As long as he has a game, be it one he has rented or one he has bought, I do not talk to him. I see only the back of his head and all I hear is swearing from him - directed at the characters on the television. You know, the ones who CANNOT FUCKING HEAR HIM!!

It’s kind of odd, this reluctance I have towards him owning another hand held game. I wanted to get him an iPod Touch for his birthday, which is more expensive than the PSP, but he argued that the PSP has more features. That the iPod is music based while the PSP is game based plus has the music. (actually, now that I think about it, the PSP would end up being more expensive becuase he would be renting/buying games for it)

I think it all boils down to the fact that we are all ignored when he has a new game to play. Until He has beaten the game, he exists in his own little world filled with animated characters killing randomly named creatures.

And yet, In the end, I know he will get it. After all, I always get what I want, so he should too.

right?

  1. My brother is a programmer for the PSP games. So, in essence, you’d be supporting my family by purchasing one. :)

  3. This is why I can’t play WoW. I would never sleep. I won’t talk to anyone. I won’t eat. I forget. And the hours just slip away.

  4. My Sons are just like that too. They play online too so when they hurl curses, someone hurls back! I call them for dinner and no one hears me. Son1’s girlfriend is ready to leave him! :shock:

    *I was like that with that bubble shooter you linked!!!*

  6. I am like that with Shattered Kingdoms. I always think I can play just for an hour or two and then I look up and it is three AM and I have some big apointment early the next morning. This is what leads me to quit playing after an evening or two anymore. Men can aford to be absent from life, but the Mom has to be there or meals don’t get made and cleaned up after. Lessons don’t get done. The dog doesn’t get put outside. Chaos reigns.

  7. I don’t get the whole games thing but then if we tried playing some we’d probably get sucked in.

  8. The iPod Touch isn’t that cool. I thought about getting one, but I didn’t. You do know that when they have software updates, they make you pay $20 to download them, right? Fucking Apple, those dicks started out by stealing from the company, and their still crooks.

    A PSP would be sweet.
