Yeah, I wrote down all these basic compy functions so my parents don\'t have to hassle me for the simplest things.

My mom doesn\'t play videogames at all. I think she\'s tried like once. My dad is a little more willing - at least he played a lot of pinball and strip poker back when we had an Amiga 500. Good times.

Joker, you\'ve got one of the coolest moms in the world.

my mum plays tetris, thats about it. Dad hates games and doesn\'t give a shit at all about them.

lol my dad and uncle used to play Contra on the old NES. "team work" they\'d say. But who needs tactics when you have up up down down left right b a b a select start. They also used to play Mario 1, and they\'d always flip or otherwise move the controller upwards whenever they pressed a to jump. (Or was it b.. no, a, b shoots fireballs).

Too bad that uncle died in June this year of Leukeamia(spelling) He would\'ve loved the Revolution.

My father used to play videogames with me.When I was 5-6 we playied a lot an Atari tennis game.He also playied alone on it many games.

Then we got those pirated Nintendo consoles with 100 games in it.He playied that too.Contra and Soccer were few games that we playied together.

He also liked a few games on PS1.The Tomb Raider series was his favourite.

My mon on the other hand though......hated and still hates videogames.We quarelled many times about videogames

Cool thread. My dad tried a racing game with a steering wheel and used to play Atari Asteroids and Duck Hunt.

But my mom will watch me play anything when she\'s bored. She got addicted to Animal Crossing and likes handheld games. She played Lumines for a while, tried Nintendogs for a bit and actually beat Kirby\'s Canvas Curse. She\'s played the first two GBA Castlevanias and beat at least one of them. It\'s pretty impressive when I think about it, she does online Flash games a lot too.

Me and my dad used to play "Baseball" on the NES.  They were always close games, so it was fun.  My dad would also have some of his buddies over and they\'d take turns getting whooped by me (I think I was 12 or so at the time).  My stepmom and me used to get really into "Golf" on the NES, we\'d play game after game.

Later on my stepdad and me would get into some heated Mario Kart matches in battle mode.. we\'d play till almost midnight all the time.

Man those were good times.

Joker: More or less.

Yep. My mother is the main reason I got into games like Super Metriod.

she gives a mean blumpkin, that\'s fo sho.



j/k bro, my mommy beat me and threw me out of the house when I was 16.

Going to arcades with him he would also set the record on the Galaga machine.  I could never ever compete with him on it.  Other than that we only played sports games together, especially Virtua tennis on the dreamcast.  He loved it, I could be sleeping and he would wake me up to play.

Again, I reiterate.. I wish.

My father will play PC backgammon and he used to occasionally play Tetris Attack with me.

That was 8 years ago, though.
