me + video games = otp.

So I have decided to play (and beat) 30 of my favorite games in chronological order in the upcoming months. Why? Cause they aren't getting any love by just sitting there and me picking them up every once in a while. And they'll remind me of all the things I <3. It'll be called The Great Video Game Heist of 2008. And sure, heist is specifically defined as a robbery, but how damn cool does it sound? Mmmhmmm. (Wait, the heist is the fact that they will be robbing me of all my time THAT'S IT! <3)

I will be playing games on the PC, Playstation, Playstation 2, Xbox, Xbox 360, Gamecube, DS -- I don't have any favorites on the Wii yet. And I don't know if I have all the cords out to get my Nintendo working. Not like I would be able to beat Adventures in the Magic Kingdom by myself anyways. XD

I'm not sure when this will start. But it will be crazy, and I will try to make it FAST. Even though that is impossible since about 8 - 10 of these require like 9384092384902 hours of gameplay. D: MUAHAHHA~

If I need more for some reason, I'll be adding the Katamari games and the Kingdom Hearts games, along with the SSX games and Fable -- but I really think these will hold me over for now. O_O


P.S. Postcards From Yo Momma is a classic site -- just as awesome as Passive Aggressive Notes. This one is basically emails from Moms everywhere. I love Mom emails.



"Look who finally learned the computer. Dad set me up email ACCOUNT AND ALSO SHOWED ME HOW TO GO ONLINE.I DON’T KNOW WHY EVERYTHING IS SUDDENLY WRITING BIG LIKE THIS, SO JUST IGNORE IT. SO HOW WAS THE CONCERT YOU WENT TO WITH FRIENDS/ CALL ME SOON. THIS WRITING IS WEIRD SORRY, LOVE MOM."


AND OH MY GOD HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHA LOVE LOVE LOVE:

Mom: hi kid. on the way to jumble java, i started crying. the kids are moving in to the dorms today and i saw a dad hugging his daughter goodbye and i lost it. that feeling never goes away. :( mom
Me: don't be lame, mom
Mom: i hope i live long enough to see you experience the same feeling. and i'm not lame.
Me: well at the rate i'm going, i doubt you'll be around to see my kids go to college. even if i do have some, they'll have three heads because i won't have them until i'm 50.
Mom: well then it will be three times as hard to say goodbye.

I don't know why, but I read this, and it made me laugh. You have the same sense of humor as I do! Those are pretty funny.

Yay! This sense of humor is really odd and I feel like I'm the only one to be this odd -- but I'm glad I'm not alone! :D

And yesssss, those made me laugh so hard. That site is pretty awesome~!

I suck at The Colonel's Bequest. I gave up.

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

DUDE, the first time I played I was like I NEED A WALKTHROUGH. Cause I wanted to see what happened but I kept missing crap everywhere and I got like the crappiest rating. XD

I also kept dying everywhere. Hehehe~

[zoopiglet.livejournal.com]

So I guess this means you'll actually have to finish GTA: San Andreas and Okage. And Fable if you add it.

Heh.

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

I KNOW IT'S GONNA BE IMPOSSIBLE. D: Another reason I made this list -- since there are games I still need to beat. Muahahahah!

[omicron1337.livejournal.com]

If I decided to play though my favorite games, there would be like, a list of five, because I have nothing besides DDR.

I should play Dual Hearts again. Hmmm.

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

YOU SHOULD! And you should finish that costume! Heheheheh~!

[sarisa.livejournal.com]

well then it will be three times as hard to say goodbye.

Well played, mom, well played.



YOU'LL NEED THIS FOR YOUR ADVENTURES IN GAMING.

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

I know, it was like the perfect response coming from a caring mom and not knowing she sounded EFFING HILARIOUS while saying it. XD


AND THAT PICTURE. IT IS AMAZING. XD I TOTALLY NEED THAT YES THANK YOU~ Would you like me to bring you back anything? A potion perhaps? Or maybe a hi-potion?! :O!

[donutarmada.livejournal.com]

Ya know, I guess cause my reading comprehension sucks, but when I read 'Great Video Game Heist of 2008' I thought you were going to knock over all the Gamestops around you or something ;)

If you beat both Vice City and San Andreas though...I'll have to give you a tip of the cap! I have still never beaten any GTA game!

[tenel-ka.livejournal.com]

Hahahahahahah~! That would be really funny but I would totally get caught. LOL~!

And I haven't beat San Andreas yet -- some of the missions are so difficult! :( But I beat VC before, that's my favorite out of the series. It's definitely one of my favorite games ever. :D
