if I did, it was an accident and i'd hold still and tell them to shoot me

I was that much better than everyone else the outcome was always the same. I would win

if they looked, then good...that's what I wanted

I would try but a small TV split 4 ways........only so much you could do. Or we would know the maps so well we could tell where you were by the sounds.

Same here. I got wrecked on my first run. Defeated them, but lost half my crew.


The Mass Effect 2 suicide mission one was one of my faves too. Certainly the most memorable in recent years. I had started to form a relationship with Tali but in the end chose a relation ship with Miranda. Tali was really upset. In the end she is the only one of my crew that died. It was the first time I really felt bad or really any emotion for a video game character.

So many memories from Ultima Online.

In the early days you had keys to your house, that if you lost or were stolen, well you were screwed! You ALWAYS kept a copy in your bank, and if you were smart you never kept a key on you. You always left your house and went straight to the bank to store it.

A guild mate and I were Hidden outside a players house. He came out and we killed him, took his house key and raiding his house. We made off with a crap ton of good stuff. We locked our self inside and when he returned we ended up selling his key back to him. Man I miss those days of UO.

Goldeneye trash talking, OOT marathons, Battletoads jetski level, Wolfenstein multiplayer, first time flying in Mario 64, and a great (but forgotten) game: Heavy Gear 2.

This is the kind of thing that made UO and EQ great, a game with consequences. Today's MMOs have no risk reward factor. In EQ you decided whether to cross a zone or not based on the risk, if you died you might not get your body any everything on it back and when you died you lost EXP in a game where it was hard to come by.

is that the first or second?

because the second one sucked hard in comparison...there was no reason to even buy it. all of the names were made up but it was clear who was who.

the leadoff for the mariners just happens to look exactly like joey cora.

Favorite gaming memory?


In order:

1. Finding my N64 under my parents' bed in December 1996 and knowing that in a few weeks it would be mine. 6th grade rocked.

2. 1989 - Dad came home from a business trip with a NES. 4 year old me lost his shite and it is one of my earliest memories. Will never forget the moment he pulled it out of the bag.

3. First time I played Rogue Squadron on N64. I was obsessed.

City of Heroes used to have random events that would spawn "monster" level Rikti (generic alien) enemies who scaled up depending on your own character so that hypothetically a level 1 character could do as well against an enemy as a level 60 could.

It didn't quite work out that way but they were fun.

So one day, while playing my character (Astounding Man: Superman if he was an ill tempered drunken redneck) the event hits. The more players in an area the more aliens spawned so I landed in what I thought was a large group of my fellow heroes to fight them off.

No. I landed in the biggest mass wipe I've seen. Twenty some odd dead heroes, all the Rikti they spawned, and me standing there realizing that I had chosen poorly.

I backed myself into a corner and spent the next fifteen minutes using every power, powerup, and trick I could think of to stay alive. And I pulled it off. Probably the most over the top heroic moment I've ever managed in any game.

I might have to change mine.

The first time I got my travel powers a few days after that game came out is one of my more memorable moments

How absurd was that fight? Reading your memory card. Making your controller move with his mind. Switching controller ports so he couldn't predict your moves.

So great
