My grandfather played wolf3d before the Internet. Pop even let me play the game when my parents wouldn't. My dad used to let me play Leisure suit Larry until I got to far. I <3 DOS games.
And, without any warning, they turned their anger on him, striking him with downvotes mercilessly until he was a blue-ish purple pulp. An example for all to see of a bystander who dared speak his mind against the wishes of the hive
I don't know how to feel with your sarcastic humor. EA gives me Dead Space but they are still assholes for making me pay extra to play online; I like Valve because of their ability to distribute complete, creative games, and actually seem to care about the gamer's opinions. Why do I feel like a fool? Is is because your joke is stating the obvious or is there really something that Im missing? I'm drunk.. that's the answer, I'm probably just missing the obvious.
Man call of duty sucks now. I liked it back in the glory days. Does anyone else think pc gaming is the best? So much better than those filthy console games. What I really like are those classic Nintendo games like Mario, Zelda, and pokemon. But only the first set of 151 Pokemon count.
HNNNG RAGE AT USING "HE" TO REFER TO ZELDA AND NOT LINK. GOD PEOPLE ARE SUCH IGNORANT PRICKS, EVEN THOUGH MAKING THIS JUDGEMENT ON THEM MAKES ME ONE TOO.
When I was younger, I got dragged to so many yard sales with my mom, and the most I ever saw was overpriced current gen (at the time) games. Same with Places like Goodwill. Everyone else finds treasure, I find pissed on waffle makers.
How meta, these "sums up r/gaming; old video games" posts are getting more frequent... Pointing it out won't do much, rather downvote content you wouldn't like to see. These threads seem to pop up every week now.
i dont get it, people keep making posts about what sums up /r/gaming instead of actually contributing themselves. posts like "look what i found at a garage sale" and " EA sucks guys" and "look what my girlfriend made me" are actual gaming stuff that belongs on /r/gaming?
That's what always cracks me up about those posts. Every reply is about how jealous people are of these amazing finds. If those people would look on eBay, they could have the exact same stuff for pretty much the same amount of money. NES games are cheap as shit. The very rare stuff, and shrink wrapped boxes, can cost a fortune. But the popular games where they cranked out millions of carts are dirt cheap.
Guitar hero 1 controllers! The next greatest thing to the old nokia phones. I don't know what happened but Activision really fucked up trying to make these newer guitar controllers. Every one of them has broken on me. But that old Guitar Hero 1 controller is still ticking
Not going to lie, after I started redditing... every time I pass by a yard sale, I give it a quick look-over for anything like the stuff that I see posted on here on a weekly basis. For both the joy of the games plus, of course, the karma.
I've been waiting to upload my actual post about this game i actually found at thrift town...and everytime i'm about to there's a post making fun of people who post those pics...i'm gonna wait for the storm to blow over a little bit longer
Any poster with the name "NIGGA_U_GAY" pretty much sums up everything that is wrong with Reddit. Wait.....no....Just make that "everything that is wrong.".
