I’ve been using the dial-up modem for the frist time tonight on this fourm.

Its running very nice.  I thought it would lag real bad….But, its not….

I haven’t hit any high pic res. threads but for the text its just going great.

Can’t ask for anything better at the time….Just happy to get some internet while my broadband is installed.

And guess what site I had to hit up after first installing the Dial-up…Yes, you guessed it the TR forums…..“The happest place on earth.”

I think it is….I went to disney land many times and believe me its overated.

that’s because you are getting old. 

Chris

do you mean hippest or happiest??

:D

old ! I am 30 and I used to love playing all the latest and greatest video games.  But, lately I’ve been way more mellow.

I enjoy more sitting and relaxing on this forum reading and responding to threads.

Just a couple of months ago I upgraded my desktop all to hell to play doom 3.  That lasted a few days and I was board with it.

Don’t get me wrong I think the grafixs were abslotely amazing….and even the story line was good….

Then I stated playing Counter Strke Source Beta and same thing….A game I was waiting for years to play.  And I end up being bored with it.

Am I not impressed with technology?  I mean these games took a huge leap from the games I played before.

I am wondering if it was ever how the game looked, played or felt.

It was if the game was fun or not.  My realization is that when you are a younger person you like games more.  And as you get older you lose the lust for them.

I noticed that many people on this forum are not game crazy…..I wonder why is that?

I remember back in the day when mario cart was the shit…

I bet if I picked up a game cube and got that new mario cart game, would bring back some memories.

I need to stop buying systems.  I have a P2 and a xbox.  I blow $50 a game and use it a couple of times and put it on a self.

Oh well, I am going to still buy Halo 2 and Half-life 2.

I am still waiting for a game that catches my eye.  I do like voice communication team action games….

They are very fun….That is one thing xbox perfected….I hate that I installed a kick a$$ grafixs card and used it to play doom 3.

After that all games feel inferior….But, I still look at that game and get pissed the heads have a cone head shape!

I mean this game was about a year or two before its time….So they sacraficed onthe heads….And it looks like the facial expressions too…

Compared to HL2 they are not up to par…..Can’t wait to see whats going to be like in 10 years.

I wonder if it will be full virtual games…..I can only dream… and I think we will all have are own version what the future will look like.

Do you know how long people have been saying that we be using space crafts instead of our cars.

Serious gamers don’t have time for anything verging on reality. :ph34r:

Once you’ve got a life and comittments it’s difficult to justify losing 24 hours, much less days, to a game.
