GAME GOOD:
* On holiday - Sit around in underwear eating packets of biscuits, drinking vodka and coco-pops then blow ugly regtangular people up.
** Breaking the ice - Got newish mates round, shove on game... boom da bang, new friendship formed. Unless it turns to fight over cheating. Also good to start conversation with distant relatives, or old family friends kids. Nothing brings people together than beating people up.
*** Feeling Low - You feel crap, bird just chucked you, failed exams. Well throw on a game, become shallow reap the pleasure of people less fortune it than you, see your not being run over or being thrown off a cliff... or if you want to be all la de da happy play a game you always win and drown yourself in vanity.
**** Escapism - Got that English essay to do? Can't look yourself in the mirror? Then enter a world of football, racing or 8ft woman with breasts the size of errr a big thing... or alternatively drink that stuff under the sink... *NOTE: Maybe wiser not to do that*
***** More for money - Absolutely guttered? Then squeeze an extra bit of value out your game... Drop that chair, leave that wall alone and crash with mates and throw on a game... and its a whole new experience... then after that breather go back to making a picture of the moon with bottle lids and talking to a picture.
GAME BAD:
* Females - Invited that bird round, don't put games on, just ends with a slap on face and no action. Alternatively if you say your going to do something, say homework and get sympathy don't let parents see you beat up some poor woman... bad idea.
** Hangover - Your up the next morning, head thumping, bored at the sudden lack of company and quietness... bad idea to play any games... that screen is like putting your head in a vice, the flashing screen, the sound and not to mention trying to think with a brain full of beer.
*** Life or Death - Say you *really* need to do work... say English Essay that you've had a month to do but leave to last minute... don't deceide to build an empire that night, then release schools in 2 hours and all you can picture is Romans running around... bad idea. Or if you have you have plans to meet at a time and you get hooked on it, soon the day will be up and it will be bed time. Also the excuse I ahd to save the Universe from the baddies won't sattisfy your teacher.
**** - Seasonal Gaming - Don't play games in Summer, there are so many opertunites at that time, warm, sunny, longer nights, more chances to get drunk in light and warmth... play them in crap weather or you'll miss all good things of summer... you should go in phases... like now play all you want. Getting drunk in Summer with mates is a LOT better than managing Aberdeen in house.
***** - Addictive - Games are always addictive but if it gets to the stage where you've played it for days non-stop and you finally try to get some kip, its impossible. You close your eyes and your in the bloody game... your room is the game... everything, very frustrating... seems like your going brain-dead and going to die.
So there in my short experiences this is a good idiots guide to GAME GOOD?... GAME BAD?

I didn't think women interes**ted you.... :D
The only time i've been drunk and played a game was ages ago what I threw a pad at my mate cause he was annoying me... the cord wasn't long enough so the padswung round and hit the bird I fancied....
..."sh*t!" I thought... she didn't care though... she was too drunk too... :D...
Gaming is bes**t when you have friends round... even the bes**t MMORPG can't beat 4 player Mario Kart, Pro Evo or Smash Brothers....
Game
Good pos**t.... 'Bout time you pos**ted more...
PS: Where is the topic you did yes**terday?! :D :D
