The Greatest Moments Together - From gaming to just hanging out

[Crazyleo]

I remember one time years ago, me and a group of friends were playing a co-op multi-player game of quake. We were kicking ass & taking names through the first three episodes.

When we got to the 4th episode, one of the players shot another player. Afterward we all just way-laid into each other; laughing like maniacs in the mean time.

Such fun when network gaming was at its best before multi-player fps shooters became mainstream.

Man. I got so many.

I remember the games from the top of my head that bring back the most nostalgia with friends were...

James Bond: Golden Eye, N64.
My old friends and I from my old city would have sleep overs and play this till the break of dawn. so many laughs and rage that was later forgiven. lol
Another one was perfect Dark. Which I recently got again. right up there with Golden Eye.

Super smash bros series:
has always and still does have a place for probably the best hilarity and good times over the years with my friends. We even got a few Youtube vids up of some of our most recent stuff we did on Brawl. :P

PSO: Mostly a good memory with just one other friend of mine that practically leveled up with me through the entire game offline. the best part was introducing new friends to the game and getting them hooked. even if it was just for a little while.

Pokemon: Need I say more? especially the original G/S/C days.

Parappa the Rappa:
one good time at a best friend's house during her birthday party. commentary literally deserved a plaque. we were on the floor. and our stomachs hurt by the end of the day from laughing.

Another moment of mine..

DDS, a made up condition called "Desert-Death Syndrome" from my days of having the worse of luck in Desert maps in multiplayer or split-player games.

It started with Armored Core on Playstation. I would go over a friend's house and we would make "mobile-suit" type mechs. I would go around with rockets, swords and missiles (at times) and kill off the other player.

We hated the entire split screen until someone made netplay with playstation emulators that worked ok with some armored core games, failed miserably with others.

Story goes I would make a lot of kills, but usually when I would die, I would in desert or brushland areas. The same happened in shooters when in one I would die in front of a cactus.

The only Deserts that I loved where I didn't die in funny ways was that small desert in FF-1 where the Airship pops up, but don't talk to me about that crappy desert with the tower in the middle. The other desert in which I didn't die tons strangely was the one in Xenogears.

As a joke, friends would say I had DDS and I did all to avoid deserts. I remember the nightmare that blasted desert in FF-11 was, thanks to all the newbies.

Of course I actually like Deserts in the real world, and have had luck in them...though games always love to put nasty things in deserts.

Other moments...

I remember all the Street Fighter Alpha 3 moments. I would have memory cards filled with data and go to gaming club, friend's houses to have fun. I was a Sakura and Dhalsim fan. I still can hear my friends jokingly saying "Yoga Puke!"

I was with two of my closest friends irl a year and half ago during the summer - So we took a huge slingshot, stuck a huge stick in the ground to brace one half of it while another person held the other side. The second person pulled the slingshot back and loaded it, while the third was like 50 yards away with a baseball bat or tennis racket launching 4-10lb water balloons.

After getting a few home runs I decided to stop a big one with my chest and cool off. Well, I jumped it the air to "chest bump" it but instead breaking it stayed completely intact upon contact and it knocked me to the ground leaving a huge welt. It hurt like nuts but I was laughing SO HARD (you know, those really deep laughs that start out silent). I finally got up to look at my friends and they were laughing so hard it was silent for like 15 seconds.
