Me: *has opened Code: Veronica and proceeds to sit on her bed with it*
Mom: So who are the people on the front of the box supposed to be?
Me: Chris and Claire.
Mom: ... *looks back at box, then to me, then at the box again*
Me: /waits for it. Waits for iiiiiit
Mom: *incredulous* ...That's Chris?
Ash: Yeaaaah, he got... revamped in Resident Evil 5...
Me: Ask anyone and they'll say steroids. Really. Anyone.
Mom: ...He shouldn't do that. They're illegal.
Me: He didn't REALLY. Plus, this game is eleven years before 5.
Mom: ...*doubtful* If you say so.

lol Mom. <3

And HECK YEAH I actually didn't die at all until the first Bandersnatch. And even then, I'd just saved the game two minutes before and had to leave for work, so I was just trying to get an idea of how much firepower was needed to kill it. I'll say that was no strike on my record.

Continuing to love how Claire has Nii-san's stamina. /o/

I am SO glad that my vacation starts tomorrow sdkfjsdf <333 Playing RE5 and CV all weekend ftwwwwww. And catching up on Bleach. I haven't baked anything in literally months, so I might have to look up a new recipe just for the occasion.

lol your mom is awesome. Mine wouldn't let me play games like RE back when I lived at home because they were too violent. D:

BUT OH GOD BLEACH. NO! SAVE YOURSELF!

[identity profile] its-game-time.livejournal.com 2010-09-02 08:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Aww. She's never cared much about violence, really--although even back when I started playing RE, she wouldn't let us play Soul Calibur because it was "too violent," which... what. 8| We play it NOWADAYS, but that's always puzzled me. "BLOWING OUT ZOMBIE BRAINS? OKAY 8D" "...STABBING PEOPLE WITH NO BLOOD PRESENT? NUUUU. >|"

...WUT THAT BAD? I still only watch the anime, so I've stopped... ffffff when Ulquiorra first released.

AHHHH CODE: VERONICA. I love that game so much ;o; I should probably play it again myself but I suck at killing zombies.

But LOL your mother. Mine wouldn't say anything like that, but I could only imagine if she did. I should see about getting her to play RE5 again. She was hilarious as Chris. XD

;; But ahhhh Claire.

Ahaha this game has me SO jumpy, for srs. When that chopper exploded at the beginning, my sisters and I jumped out of our skins. XD;

LOL yay for Moms as Chris! XDDD Mine played as him in Mercs when I finally convinced her, and she friggin' loves that shotgun.

C-Claire is so much love.

OH GOD. Rodrigo always caught me off guard. I mean I'd see him, and then the lighter would go off and I'd screech. I LOVE it though. And the bandersnatch's are easy if you have the bowgun.

Mine was like "WHAT AM I DOING" cause we started her off on very easy and then all of a sudden. "LOL omg I just blew his head off." It cracked me up. Then Josh shot he and she was like "My son shot me D:" Good times.

Claire is amazing. I love her in everything she ever does.

[identity profile] its-game-time.livejournal.com 2010-09-02 10:29 pm (UTC)(link)
LOL Rodrigo. XD The sudden, high-pitched music they throw in doesn't help, fff. 8|

Ahaha. When mine finally managed to pull out the shotgun and blasted about three guys at once, she was like, "....Ooooooh. That was cool." RE always has good times.

Inorite. <3333

I found Bandersnatches SO annoying! Especially if you go into a room and the camera's all funny so you can't see one lurking, and then suddenly it's BAM! ARM TO THE FACE!!

I knoooow DX They were a bitch in DC, too.

[identity profile] hikari-datenshi.livejournal.com 2010-09-02 09:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Aah DC, one of the VERY FEW RE games I have not yet played. Along with UC. ONE DAY, VERY SOON, WHEN I STEAL BORROW MY FRIEND'S WII, THEN I SHALL FINALLY BE COMPLETE~ :DD

I am generally disapproving of any enemy who can reach you from far away. It's just NOT ON.

What, some people didn't like them?? I'm wary of the railshooterness, but the rest of me is like SGHSGLHSGLDG MORE WESKER STORYYYY and SJHGJKHDJGKBDJKGB MORE KRAUSER STORY. But it's mostly SFHSGLKHSDKL?DKLG?L WESKER STORY. I am both terribly predicatable and terribly obsessed. XD

I DISAGREE WITH TENTACLE MONSTERS. ESPECIALLY THE SNAKEY DUDES WHO POP OUT OF HEADS AND WHIP YOU LIKE THEY'RE TRYING TO BE KINKY, BUT IT'S NOT KINKY COS IT'S A SNAKE-TENTACLE HITTING YOU IN THE FACE.

Everyone hates on UC, for some reason, but I loved it. I might like it better than DC, even, although DC had the BEST ACTION!FPS SHOTS EVER.

LOLOL X'D YEAH PRETTY MUCH. AND NEMESIS'S TENTACLES ARE THE BIGGEST BITCH IN UC I SWEAR. B|

[identity profile] hikari-datenshi.livejournal.com 2010-09-03 01:47 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I credit UC for getting me into RE in the first place! Mostly cos it was the first one I saw someone play - at Winter-een-Mas - and all they did literally all week was do Wesker impressions. XD Spent the entire time going ZOMBAAAAAYYS in his silly voice. Aaah, memories!

Oh GOD not Nemesis! To my shame, RE3 is the ONLY ONE I've not completed by myself. I just... couldn't do it. Nemesis scared me too much, and I panicked all the time and just died, over and over and over again, lol. I made the bf do it for me. *waves goodbye to gamer cred* It's like what the Regenerators do, isn't it? Reach out and grab you IN THE FACE and then you're ded.

(...do I rly have to say it?) /icon keywords BB X'D <3

ALSO I am still so totally jealous that your parents show so much interest in your gaming. Mine just sort of. 8\ at the fact that I like playing games. Like they think I'M GOING TO GROW OUT OF IT someday or smth. ...To which I can only say LOL YOU JIST KEEP THINKIN', PARENTS, THAT'S WHAT YOU DO BEST.

[identity profile] its-game-time.livejournal.com 2010-09-03 02:08 am (UTC)(link)
Ahaha. MY DAD IS TTLY THE REASON I EVEN GOT INTO RE, TBH. Although I've taken over it since... he only plays the games that are post-4 because he "doesn't have the patience" for the older ones. |D And I totally forgot about this, but my mom recently suggested that I had a crush on Chris, which... made me go WUT and LOL and I was like, "Ahaha! No. As much as I like Chris, if I were to crush on a video game character, it wouldn't be him." And she asked, "Then who? Leon?" And again, I had to say no. XD;;

...PFFFFFF DON'T THEY KNOW THAT SOME PEOPLE *START* THEIR GAMING LIVES WHEN THEY'RE ADULTS? TSK.

[identity profile] alory-shannon.livejournal.com 2010-09-03 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
...My dad...sort of might've gotten me into computer gaming a LITTLE BIT by playing Wolfenstine and King's Quest VI when I was little...and letting me play Oregon Trail, Yukon Trail, and Amazon Trail over and over for hours and hours...but those were really the only games of mine he's shown much interest in, and that was 10+ years ago. For the Tales games, he says they "look too little kiddish". He respected Final Fantasy XII well enough, though, I suppose...but who wouldn't, Squeenix makes such gorgeous games. I STILL cannot get over my mum's experience with Guy Cecil and The Tight Pants of Win. |D "...You just like that outfit better 'cause the pants are tighter, right." + "...Can you bring him closer to the screen? Okay good, now turn him sideways--can you see a bulge?" She still denies this ever happened...but it absolutely did. |D And lolol I AM SO BLATANTLY HONEST ABOUT MY FICTIONAL CRUSHES. X'D THE GUY'LL DO SOMETHING COOL ON-SCREEN, AND I'LL BE ALL, "WHOO~ HO YEAH, THAT IS WHY YOU'RE MAH NEWEST VIDEO-GAME BOYFRIEND!" :3 <333

...Honestly, I think my parents are largely to blame thank for my relatively late start in gaming...I'm sure I've told you how they didn't let us have anything larger than a GameBoy for YEARS, and how we were ONLY supposed to play those in the car even then...and then when we finally GOT a real gaming system (when I was in HS)...it was a GameCube. After I absolutely BEGGED for a PS2. Which I did not get until about six years later, whilst in college. B| So if they don't like it, they can just STICK IT.

Ahaha Yukon Trail X'D THE MEMORIES. We've had a gaming system for as far back as I can remember, thanks to my dad's love of the Zelda games, so... TOTALLY HIS FAULT, ALL RIGHT. LMAO YOUR MOM X'D fffff u. XD

We STILL quote things from the Amazon Trail game at each other. |D One of the two guides you could pick at the beginning had a VERY distinctive accent.
*whenever you decide to rest for a week & recover*: "Tha'sa good ideeeya, let's rest fer a wik!"
*whenever you catch a fish*: "Wha shoold we do wihs dis?" |D
