XERXES Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 when Secret of Mana first came out I bought it and played it for a weekend and didnt move, I literally played it non-stop on a weekend. When I got reeeeely close to the end I got grounded from my SNES for playing it too much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lil Killa Posted July 9, 2003 Share Posted July 9, 2003 My comp has been slowed down from a screwed up security program that he needs to upgrade but he won't so I can't play any games on my comp unless I want extremly low fps (singlediget) now if that doesn't suck I dunno what does....

Sam Fisher Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Well, right now I'm being a very evil kid. Currently I'm banned from all of our comps at home, but the parents can't get a resourceful(sp?) little b****** off my sisters laptop, now can they?

Elijah Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 Originally posted by Azrael I used to have a Voodoo 5500, so don't get me started. I used to also... didnt stop me... The worst time was when I blew a power supplie, and bought a new one along with battlefield1942... of course BF1942 came in the mail like 3 days before the powersupplie.

Agen Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 When my friend borrowed my JK2 cd and i couldn't paly cos he went on holiday Before that though, back in the days of JK1, BFP ( :D :D) messed up my JK, i didn't have a clue why my game wouldn't work but a helpful Sysop told me what to do. I really needed it at that time cos i had a match against bsb_dyno, unfortunately i missed the match (got told i was a chicken).. but beat him 4 days later Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gorganfloss Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 After years of obsessive Diablo 2 playing, I got a new comp and bnet wouldnt work. Now that I redid my comp yesterday, bnet works. But my friend rubbed off the d2 cd key from the case on accident...Now I can finally play it, but cant at the same time. I hate when life screws you over like that.

I dont have the patience to let someone ealse do it I would reformat my comp right now if i had the chance cause it has been so slow lately it is vertualy imposable to play any games on it. The catch is he has stupid virus stuff and he would get pissed off if he found out i had reformated and he had to reinstal it (HE has instal it cause it's parental control **** that never gets ussed cause i'm a good little boy) but oh well I got two other comps in this house to play on so i'm not completely screwed I just can't use my nice geforce 4:( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Besides,he also needs to partition it and I dont know jack about doing that.. ..oh,and then there's that little fact that, knowing my luck and general attention(or lack of) of what I'm doing, I'd end up sending my HD to kingdom come.

Chewbacco Posted July 11, 2003 Share Posted July 11, 2003 It was not me but it was when Tie 23 got this new game that he wanted so badly that when he put it on, it wouldn't run. He started to get mad and teary before I found out how to run it an hour later. But that was about 2 years ago. He was just turned 11. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderer Posted July 13, 2003 Share Posted July 13, 2003 For me it's always a matter of time when I can't play the games I want to. JO for example. Now is the first time I really have the intention to play it till the end ( Was always stopped because of Saberdesigning, which is also very time-filling and of course my job (till 13 and a half hour at work)). I would also like to play JK and MotS once again. I have Unreal 2...and I would like to play once Jagged Alliance through ..... But I guess when I'm able to play all my favorite games through....I will be at the age of 70(Hope I'll made it earlier;) ). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
