do your parents play videogames?
« on: October 18, 2005, 02:21:20 PM »
My mom is the sole reason I play videogames. I grew up playing the original Nintendo with my mom. We always played Super Mario and of course DUCK HUNT!!

the first game I ever paid for with my own money was resident evil 2 which her and I played together without a memory card cause I didn\'t own one yet. Everyday when I got home from school we\'d sit down and play through it to the very end and of course as fate would have it we\'d get killed at the end boss. God I hated William Birkin...

but that experience is why I love RE2 so much. another one me and her played together a lot was Tomb Raider II which is my moms favourite game.

I\'ve owned an Xbox, Ps2, and Gamecube however the gamecube I let my mom borrow one weekend 2 years ago and haven\'t seen it since hehe

To put in perspective how much of a gamer my mom is, when I loaned her the GC and the Legend of Zelda:Windwakers. i also gave her the guide too it. Anyways, she spilled coffee all over the book and the guide was ruined....soo my mom played through the game all over again numerous times and wrote her own guide to it for me to use. Containing all the sub-quests hidden items and anything else that was needed to know.


so anyone else have some game crazy parents?

No...my dad hasn\'t played video games since Pong, Galaga, and Pacman. And my mom never cared for video games.

My mom never play video games.  Its just that she doesn\'t know how.  She never touch the remote control.  Her interest are something else like listening to music, and dancing.  She\'s very good at sewing and cooking.

Its a good thing that she isn\'t addicted to videogames at all.

Nope, my parents have a virtually non-existant understanding of technology.

To them, even turning the TV on and off is quite an accomplishment

That\'s the same way my parents are. It\'s annoying because I have to repeatedly show them how to do everything and they forget 10 seconds later EVERY SINGLE TIME! It sucks.

heh heh I guess I lucked out with my Ma then. It was cool cause there was always someone to play games with. She also went out and took a computer basics course so I wouldn\'t have to explain every little thing to her.

My parents don\'t. I think the last game my dad played was Duck Hunt all those years ago. They don\'t have an interest in games at all and I don\'t think they\'d be able to figure them out.

So Joker, your mom doesn\'t have a life? :) Seriously, her work on TWW sounds cool but damn.. I hope she published it on GameFAQs too.

Otherwise that\'s just too much love and dedication!

As for my parents, I wish they liked what I liked. Not just games, but my reading and television favorites as well.
