Well, it seems like it might be one of my WEIRD DREAMS, but ever since I was as young as JACK THE NIPPER, back in my SCHOOL DAZE in fact, I've always had games on the brain, I guess I was a bit of a MANIC MINER (or minor).
Now, I don't think it effects me too much, it doesn't make me QUAKE in fear and I'm not DOOMed from it, it doesn't scare the LIVING DAYLIGHTS from me either, I won't go BERZERK and I don't need a packet of SETTLERS for my stomach either. No, what I have isn't a STATE OF EMERGENCY but a way of life. Don't worry thoug, it's not a NIGHTMARE.
My life is taken up with other tasks now, like getting in the loft for an ATTIC ATTACK or BREAKOUT some cases of wine for the evening when it's BURGERTIME, sometimes I get out in the garden for a little DIG DUG. I do so much cleaning away, when other people ask me to play, I have to say to them "I have to PAC MAN".
I do seem to be a DEFENDER of the need to play games though,all the shoot-em-ups, the fighting games and THE SIMS. I feel there is always some need for excitement, and a NEED FOR SPEED that you can't get in real life. Some of these arguements would turn in to ADVANCE WARS if I wasn't careful. I always seem to come out TOPGUN though, after all, I wouldn't want to be CANNON FODDER for anyone. To me, the whole arguement is BLACK AND WHITE anyway, I mean, games are great, aren't they?
Well, THE THING is, the other day I found myself ALONE IN THE DARK, in my old loft, and found an old Atari VCS system, it was in a SILVER box and I found some old games too. Great, I thought, going back to these games was like my FINAL FANTASY. I turned it on and was immediately captured like a PRISONER OF WAR by the nostalgia. Mind you, looking at the prices of some of the old games on the net, I might have to commit GRAND THEFT AUTO to buy any more (although THE GETAWAY would be pretty hard in this area)!
Well, I better stop this before I BURNOUT, I've TEKKEN enough time to write this, after all. So I'll throw down the GAUNTLET to anyone who has more games on the brain than me.

You crazy cats!
HALO Pb! Sounds like you are in DESPERADO need of a new career Pb, ever thought of becoming a STUNTMAN? After all a career in the police could see you DEAD OR ALIVE and we wouldn't want that. It could be a dangerous career all though having said that I have never had MAX PAYNE just a little ache hear and there. Just looking out of my window and I can see a SILENT HILL that looks almost MEDIEVAL, possibly an exhaggeration but I think that my Spanish friend MARIO is burried alive in there.
A very original post Pb that deserevs a lot of credit, you weren't in a TIME CRISIS when writing this post!
