Video Game Meme
17 years ago
I stole this meme from JWB (teehee), and now I'm making my own answers for these questions:
1) What was your FIRST video game console?
Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)
2) Name a few games you played on said console.
Let's see... I got "Super Mario Bros/Tetris/World Cup" (3 in 1), Bubble Bobble, Bucky O' Hare, Solomon's Key and Little Nemo: The Dream Master. Then I also borrowed Dragon's Lair, Megaman 4 and other Super Mario games from my friends.
3) Excluding handhelds, how many VG consoles do you own presently?
Playstation 2 and 3, Xbox 360 and Sega Mega Drive.
4) Were you a Street Fighter nut? Any character in particular?
No. I'm not really into fighting games at all.
5) Do you think Capcom is a FUCKING awesome company with kickass character designs?
At least Capcom's horror games are all quite awesome.
6) Here's the scenario.. You had some friends over and you all ate FRIED CHICKEN! After the meal you all decide to play some video games. As your friend reaches for a controller you notice his/her hands are very "greasy." Are you the type that would insist they wash their hands before pawing the controller, or is it no big deal?
"Hey! Go wash your hands before touching my controllers with your dirty hands, bitch!"
7) What's your favorite RPG/Action RPG? I will allow a second and third fave if you insist.
Haven't played that much RPGs, but I'd say Dragon Quest VIII is the best so far.
8) Do you prefer 2D games or 3D games?
It depends on the game. They're both equally good.
9) Are you an SNK fan?
No I'm not.
9) Are you good at DDR?
Haven't ever played any DDR (try to figure out why). Although I like music games, I prefer more Beatmania/Guitar Hero styled button pressing.
10) Who wants to kick that dog's ass from Duck Hunt?
Well, why not. It's a real pain in the ass.
11) Have you skipped out on important events in life because of video games?
Nothing more important than opening the front door to my family members while they're freezing outside the house.
(What? They got the key to open the door by themselves. They're just too lazy to use it.)
12) Do you listen to video game music?
Sometimes, yes. But I mainly listen the music that, for example, has been in Tony Hawk-serie. There's some very good punk and hiphop songs right there.
13) Have you ever cosplayed a VG character?
No. I'm not even as a "furry" that kind of person who likes to dress up for costumes.
14) Have you ever been in an arcade playing a fighting game, KICKING ASS, and then some 6 year old asian kid comes in and OWNS YOU??
Nope. Since there's no arcades in Finland.
15) Name three games you would love to see remakes of if it was done properly.
I don't really like this whole Remake-thing. It's ruining the film industry already, don't bring it into the video game industry either. Remakes rarely works better than the original, I believe.
But if I must name some games, then I'd say Resident Evil 2, Silent Hill (the first one) and surprisingly Kane & Lynch: Dead Men would be nice to see as a Remake.
16) Mario or Sonic?
Although I have nothing against Mario and his games... And although the recent Sonic games have been so shitty, I'd still pick the hedgehog dude. I like him more as a character.
17) When a movie shows up in the theaters, let's use Spider-man as an example, are you likely to buy the GAME version?
No. Movie-based, licence games rarely works even as a mediocre standard. They simply SUUUUUCKS!
18) What is your LEAST favorite genre of video games? (ex. fighting, sports, shooters, etc.)
You might think that I say "sports", since I'm a fat fur, but no. I actually play a lot of skateboarding/xtreme sport games. I don't have anything against any genre but fighting games are less familiar to me. So I'll pick that.
19) Is there a game out there that you feel was unique and didn't get enough love? The best games are the most underrated ones.
There's a lot of those, but for some reason I can't name many of them right now. Well, let's say Clock Tower-serie (and Haunting Ground) and Siren-serie are quite unterrated.
20) Have you ever verbally abused a game because you couldn't beat one of the levels and/or bosses?
I actually do that a lot of these days. Few years ago I never yelled to the TV screen or any shit like that, but now. Something's changed.
Maybe it's because all the HD-generation problems like unstable framerate that ruins combos in THP8. Or it can also be the horrible lag and aiming system in GTAIV multiplayer that makes me mad. All the errors that has nothing to do with the players actions/skills makes me anger. Easy.
21) Do you own any VG apparel?
Nope.
22) What are your thoughts on the live-action Super Mario Bros movie?
Needless to say, it's horrible.
23) On that note, what did you think about the live-action Street Fighter movie?
Haven't seen that. But what I've heard, it's even worse than Super Mario.
24) Who's hottest out of the KOF chicks?
KOF = King of Fighters? Again, I'm not into fighting games so I don't know.
25) Do you say "old-school" a lot when you're having a VG conversation with others?
No. Since we're talking most of the time the recent game releases.
26) Have you ever lent someone a game and they returned it to you damaged?
Well, not damaged. But few of the games has returned with some grease at the bottom of the disc...
27) Do you own any imported games?
Only two of them. And they're both bought during this year. Siren: Blood Curse and Fallout 3. I ordered Siren from the Japan, since I wanted the disc version of the game, not some crappy downloading from PSN.
28) Are you ready for this meme to be over, or could you keep going?
I still got a lot to say about the subject.
29) In this scenario, let's pretend you're going to get a video game tattoo! What would you get and where? This can be simple or elaborate.
NES controller would be the greatest, yet it's kinda overused already.
30) Have you ever cried after you beat a game? If so why?
Not cried, but many games has made me quite emotional. (No I'm not talking about "throwing controllers" or anything...)
So, that's all about it. Feel free to make your own Video Game Meme, if you already haven't.
