Nintendork Posted November 21, 2006 Author Posted November 21, 2006 Consoles are launched once every 5 years.. what is a week in 5 years? Fuck all. I think he's taking a bit of an ego trip putting himself on webcam that long.. but it's still good to get an extended view of gameplay if you can't. He has a friend round.. and thanks giving is about as important as Easter over here for young Americans.

AshMat Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 oh dear oh dear oh dear.... ' what is a weeks in 5 years? ' oh dear I don't get it?
Nintendork Posted November 21, 2006 Author Posted November 21, 2006 I think he imagined a speeling error and is taking the piss? Either that or he mispelled it himself and is criticising me because I think a week is not important in the big picture. We have a bad working culture in the UK.. we spend far too much time commuting, working and on average a person only has 2 hours of pleasure time in a day. In Europe people work much less, there's more public holidays and in general people work to live.
LukeLee Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 lol, you lot will all be doing the same thing when you get your wii, just without a webcam and you're not planning it
Nintendork Posted November 21, 2006 Author Posted November 21, 2006 I'm planning it, I'm gonna stock up on some snacky food (ideally not everything junk food) and play for days. I will sleep more than him no doubt but it's gonna be a similar pattern. Might not even go out at the weekend it launches.

MAn, my social life will be confined to here and the enemies and Monkeys on the Wii
Nintendork Posted November 21, 2006 Author Posted November 21, 2006 I think Elebits might be worth playing whilst on acid.
Atomic Boo Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 sorry, i just think its stupid to say 'its only a week'. a lot of good can be achieved in a week and getting to the last level on rayman after playing on it for 168 hours isnt much to talk about. play games in moderation.
scubahood Posted November 21, 2006 Posted November 21, 2006 I think people are just jealous that he is enjoying his Wii to the fullest. Stop being such killjoys and chill out
Nintendork Posted November 21, 2006 Author Posted November 21, 2006 He's just completed Rayman (I think) "SPOILER ALERT" he escaped from prison and I switched off there. Thanks to him I'm buying Rayman now.. it's too fun.
Yoshiking Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 If you think playing games for a straight week is a waste of said week, then you are not a true gamer. Gonna watch some of this now.. Haven't been able to earlier (as it cocks up on my computer).

Thanks to him I'm buying Rayman now.. it's too fun. Yeah I have to say I might it looks like something very different. I was going to get Monkey Ball, but had that at cube launch and maybe fancy a change and Rayman looks like it has a good single player aswell as multiplayer, maybe will get this then monkey ball later down the line.

Haven't been able to earlier (as it cocks up on my computer). 'your are not a true gamer' is it a good thing to be a true gamer? i dont think it is. i think its a bad habit to be playing games for long hours.my longest gaming session was probably 3 hours or a bit over. and if you say to someone 'im a true gamer' or 'im a hardcore gamer' then theyll think you're a prick, unless they're a gamer themselves
Nintendork Posted November 22, 2006 Author Posted November 22, 2006 Actually I'm quite an open geek and gamer in real life.. down the pub or at the skatepark nobody has a big deal with me. To label yourself as hardcore is as stupid as saying I'm god.. it's not something that should be self appointed. I am known as hardcore for my reputation for playing games when I was a kid.. I don't tout it but people know I used to be H-C
AshMat Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Actually I'm quite an open geek and gamer in real life.. down the pub or at the skatepark nobody has a big deal with me. Im like that, but without the pub thing. I've actually got a couple of my mates playing games. I might get Rayman now, add it to my end of the year list.
ultrajamie Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 it's irrational...but seeing his wii next to the laptop... and thinking about how long i have to wait... well... it made me hate him. but only a little.
Fruitgun Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 Even though this man is nuts, it would look like the thing most of us will be doing when Wii finally goes on sale, just without the publich humiliation factor.. (I hope.) I know I will be playing Zelda until my eyes bleed!
dannbrownn Posted November 22, 2006 Posted November 22, 2006 ZOMG He's just shouted 'Dang it, I gotta Pee!' but when he comes back he's like so totally gonna be playin like wii sports
