What do you love about games?

[Confessor]

Gotta say escaping from IRL

[GrooveMan.exe]

You can kill as many things as you want an can't get in trouble, you actually get points!

That sentiment is awful and you should feel awful.

no he shouldn't. that was a good point, imo. Killing virtual things can be fun and "relieve stress"

That's not what the phrasing implies. It currently reads as "I want to kill people IRL but can't; so I live out my sick fascination with killing in games instead."

I play a fair few violent games, and No More Heroes is a blast, but not because I'm killing people. That's just creepy. =/

Games like Burnout give me the sense of speed that I love, and making other cars crash helps me relieve stress.

[Geo the Fox]

Blowing up pretend things for free is fun.

Also, pretty images and flashy shiny lights make me



And if you like pretty images and flashy lights, YOU SHOULD DEFINITELY PLAY SCARLET-- Oh forget it. >

I personaly enjoy games because I find them as a way of interactive story telling and a lost art form.
Okami is proof of my last statement because the game uses Art as a game mechanic and the story is perfection in my opinion. However, sports games are just simulations of the real world sports, there's no story, no art, just bloody frickin' sports games that you can play outside, but you're too lazy to do it.

But I was talking about killing Goombas and Waddle Dees and such.

You sick bastard! Stone him! STONE HIM!!!

Again, your phrasing doesn't really imply that. You could try to kill non-existing monsters in real life, but that probably wouldn't get you in trouble. In a mental hospital maybe.

lolpretentiousness. Games are still created and enjoyed in circulation. Not quite 'lost' yet.

When will I be able to play hockey with Mario on my team!!!!!!!!!!

[Confessor]

And football where you can kick fucking fireballs into other people?

Where can I do that in real life, because I'm interested.

because Mario doesn't like Canadians like me (us?) that much

anyways, that joke aside, I find gaming is a great way for me to escape the hardships of reality and live someone elses (fictional yet amazing) life. But I think I enjoy it the most when it takes in one direction only, like when they make almost as if it were an interactive movie, or if they just wanted fighting to be involved, either way, all games are fun if made the right way.

He wants to kill people but kills digital things instead, stop complaining.

I like games for their graphics, bite me.

I don't want to "kill" people. I just want to "hurt" some curtain beings. So I take out my anger on Ridley and such.

No, no, no. You don't take anger out on creatures! You take them out on machines! It's much more satisfying to see a giant vehicle exploding in flames then to jump on a goomba.
