Since God invented all the other good stuff.

Was reading through my google feeds when I saw this post by Sarcastic Gamer about how this mom was raving about the evilness of video games on her blog. Hey who knew, a parent on the internetz! With a blog nevertheless!

So, because I have nothing else better to do, I went and took a look at the woman’s blog and actually read the whole thing. It started off with:

We have the only house in our neighborhood with no video games.

Well that ought to tell you something.

My son has explained to me many times how this makes us freakish aliens from space.

No shit. Although Aliens from space are much cooler.

I truly believe that video games were created by Satan to turn otherwise normal children into his drooling, glassy-eyed stooges.

…

After my son plays them at his friends’ houses, he comes home irritable and testy for the rest of the day.

hmm…that sounds familiar..

Then the rest of the post, she talks about how she wants to be the “fun mom” who makes Popsicles and is liked by every kid etc. But apparently no one wants to go to their house because it’s boring. Well I wonder why…

Then she started to talk about how she read an article about a mom who called the cops on her kid cuz he’s been playing too much GTA. The rest of the blog is basically her attacking GTA and video games, after which she went on and talked about how she was an odd and geeky kid when she was in school but learnt a lot from her reading excessively (well ma’am, you make us geeks look bad) and that

If Sir Isaac Newton had been playing a DS, I’m sure he never would have noticed the apple falling from the tree, so he never would have formulated the theory of gravity.

First of all, being the smart guy that Isaac Newton is, he would probably be a PC gamer, and wouldn’t spend much time with a DS. Second of all, if the DS had been already invented back then, then we’ll be having hover cars right now and so screw gravity.

Since I’m probably being a biased ass, here’s the article so you can judge for yourself.

But honestly, people should stop blaming everything on video games. OHHH This guy killed someone! It’s cuz he’d been playing COD! OHHHH this other guy shot a cop!! It’s cuz he’s been playing GTA!! OHHH this kid shot himself cuz he’s being playing too much WoW!!

Dammit people, how about you guys start taking responsibility in the society instead of blaming everything on a bunch of codes and machines?

Oh a guy killed someone? Well I’m we all want to do what the video game characters do. I’ve always wanted to jump and knock my head into a brick so that maybe coins will come out of it.

A guy shot a cop? Maybe he just wants to loot his guns and stuff.

A kid shot himself? How about bad parenting as a cause? Did that idea ever come across you parents? HMM? Probably not, because you guys are probably too busy to even take a look at your kid and ask him how’s school and such every once in a while. You know, care a little, like how parents are supposed to? Maybe then he won’t let WoW fill up his empty life, and maybe then he won’t shoot himself because he has an awesome family?

Ok, I’m done. It’s just that video games are a big part of my life and my family. We would play the multiplayer games together, and we would watch each other play the single player games etc. It’s not a solitary activity, seriously. Especially now with online play and such.

Although maybe being a gamer makes me a “drooling, glassy-eyed stooge” so I’m oblivious to its evilness.

I totally suck but it’s fun enough to keep me from bed at 4am.

I was trying to farm me some coins but it didn’t work out as planned.

This is soooo going on my wishlist. In fact, it’s on my NEED LIST. I NEED THIS.

Resident Evil 2 is the FIRST Resident Evil game I played, and it’s the reason I got into the whole survival horror genre. And that’s how I met Leon…

I WANT THIS.

Did I mention that I want this?

Oh and it starts bid at £45. Which is 74 USD. Which is 103 SGD. I have my my currency converter right here. Dammit, where’s a rich secret admirer when I need one. Well if I forgo Borderlands, Modern Warfare 2 and my daily dose of chocolate, I just might be able to join the bid…hmm tough choices….

Funny how whenever I say I’m not gonna talk about something, something ends up on me blog. IT’S CLOWN  FUNNY I TELL YA.

So anyhoo, I saw on Kotaku that the sale of Modern Warfare 2 reached 1.2 million in ONE DAY, ONE COUNTRY. What’s wrong with peoplezz!!?

I was just listening to the Video Game Show podcast and they were talking about how much Blizzard is making out of just the World of Warcraft game. Two billion dollars a year! For a game! That’s 2, 000, 000, 000 = 10 freakin digits! Gosh I should seriously consider going into the game industry. And that’s not all, besides the subscription fees, you have to buy the game, the expansion packs, name change, faction change etc etc. Plus, just recently they came up with two WoW pets that you can get for ten bucks each.

That up there are the pets. I…

Y’know what, nevermind.

Anyhoo.

Yea, Modern Warfare 2 gets on my nerves. Over hyping of anything usually does. UNLESS IT’S ME BLOG. Hype it, hype it!

One similarity between a cool Dynasty Warrior and Baby twisted beyond repair?

DING DING! This was what happened: I was waiting for my brother to finish his guitar lesson and I decided that I could play some Dynasty Warrior since I brought the PSP along. Well I haven’t played it for a long time, so when I was using Zhao Yun and doing some cool damage, he popped out a line “Victory is mine!”

Wait, what?!?

Maybe it’s just me being bored, but it seriously cracked me up when I heard it. The word “Victory” itself is gaudy enough to be funny, and in additional to the fact that I can’t help but to connect it with Mister Steward Gilligan Griffin AKA little Hitler Stewie, my admiration for Zhao Yun had just dipped a yard (mind you, it’s still pretty high though). Although it still can’t be compared to the bad script of Resident Evil series, it’s still pretty bad. Bad as in funny. Like Clown funny. And clown funny is bad.
