Confessions of an Adventure Gamer

Curt · 12-08-2003, 09:11 AM

All these open letters got me thinking. We have no thread to make our confessions in...........

So now we have right here.

Make them as shocking or as trivial as possible. The only thing I ask is that everyone keep them as TRUTHFUL as is within your nature. If you feel the urge to lie, at least make it a funny lie. And please try not to offend others (in other words, if you confess you are a racist please make sure first that nobody knows what race you actually are).

Oh, and if you must confess to having a particularly large organ of any sort, check that you don't get your imperial mixed up with your metric.

Oh, and only post your confessions if you are prepared to be laughed at, chased around by other forumites, accept rotten fruit, curl up into a little ball, wish you were one of the other forumites, or wish you were dead.

I'll post one when I can think of one worth posting.

So, the doors are now open. Confess away fellow forumites..............

I thought Myst was teh suck.

SamandMax · 12-08-2003, 10:08 AM

I liked Peter Jackson's older movies better, before Lord of the Rings.

Garyos · 12-08-2003, 10:14 AM

I......

Er, on second thought, better not.

Erwin_Br · 12-08-2003, 10:16 AM

Okay, time for me to come out of the closet: I'm heterosexual!

Huz · 12-08-2003, 10:18 AM

I fell asleep during LOTR - The Two Towers.

Also, I thought The Godfather was rubbish.

Tanukitsune · 12-08-2003, 10:39 AM

I get UAKM and BASS mixed up... I nearly bought 2 UAKM thinking I was buying BASS...

I wanted Laverne to win the Miss Adventure contest...

Even though I say you shouldn't buy I game just because it has a busty babe I still buy Tomb Raider, and I'm a big fan...

I have bought this game... Collector's Edition (Hey, at least its not Hentai, ok, ok, I have one of those too, but most men have one...)

I buy crappy budget bin games just to increase my collection, but at least I but games I might like, and games I might play....

I once bought 11 games in one go: Sim Ant, Sim Isle, Sim Life, Sim Farm, Sim Tunes, Sim Tower, Sim Copter, Sim City, Sim Earth, Sim Park, Sim Golf

I might buy Daitakana just to see the Dopefish cameo...

I have all the Sabrina: The Animated Series games...

I have the Hamtaro games...

I used to be Capcom's b*tch, now I'm more of a Blizzard grunt....

I intend to have one of the largest game collections in my country, I want to have the biggest collection in the world, in other words, I want to appear in the Guiness World Book of Records as the guy with most games...

I guess this is enough stuff to get me panned to Gerardo Rearviewa, or Jerry Springhead...

But did Curt mean just gamewise confessions?

Oh well, you may pan me, for I have gamed....

Zygomaticus · 12-08-2003, 10:51 AM

On Febuary 29th 1997, I smelt like fish.

Tanukitsune · 12-08-2003, 11:16 AM

Oh, so they don't have to be game related? I guess I do spend all day thinking about games...

I think most of the movies that won the best movie Oscar are boring....

I listen to 80's toon themes instead of normal music...

I still watch cartoons....

OH, oh, this one is good, most people ask me: Did you get hit on the head as a child? And the answer is: YES!
My sister threw me to the wall and sent me to the hospital! I have the scar, like Harry Potter!

Lots of people think I smoke weed or something like that... (I have been asked what I am on...) Its just the way I am, I'm a hyperactive sloth, a grumpy optimist, and a talkative shyguy, a stupid genius, stubborn like a mule, but I am persuaded easily... Hmm, was there a song about this?

ragnar · 12-08-2003, 11:19 AM

I confess that I couldn't resist posting this rather pointless post.

For some reason Steve Miller Band's "Space Cowboy" comes into mind. Beats me.

syntheticgerbil · 12-08-2003, 03:20 PM

This isn't a talk show right?

Is my archnemesis (who ever he or she is) gonna appear and beat me up like in Jerry Springer?

Curt · 12-08-2003, 06:37 PM

I confess to having an absolutely awful memory. At least, I think that's what I wanted to confess.

Intrepid Homoludens · 12-08-2003, 08:32 PM

Please, guys, don't ever tell anyone else this:

I....I play my games fully clothed.

*Jake* · 12-08-2003, 09:00 PM

i wouldnt mind a fifth monkey island game

Wormsie · 12-08-2003, 10:05 PM

I have sung/screamed christmas carols in the middle of Helsinki, and also one verse of "Wir kämpfen für Adolf Hitler" with my very own lyrics, as an antifascistic one-man demonstration.

Swordmaster · 12-08-2003, 10:28 PM

I liked Jar-Jar.
