Console Gamers are so Judgmental
Sometimes I wonder if people think before they speak. It’s okay to be a console only gamer but to be judgmental towards PC gamers with no prior knowledge is pretty insulting to me. It’s always the ones that never
owned a gaming PC a day in their lives — never saw one either that always have something to say. “PC gaming is dying”, I rather use a controller than a mouse and keyboard”, blah, blah, blah! One, PC gaming isn’t dying, and two, you can use a controller on any and every game; you can even use a controller to browse your computer. I didn’t want to end this year blogging about this subject again but enough is enough. Yea, I know I’m wasting my time but ‘my time’ are the operative words. I would like to see beautiful graphics and processing speeds on a console of 2012 on a 2005-2006 consoles — without upgrading that is. People think you have to upgrade your computer specs every time something new comes out. That’s not true, if you do it right the first time, you shouldn’t have to upgrade your computer for the next 3-4 years. The money people wasted on a Blu-ray player that just so happens to play video games I can buy the parts to make a cheaper gaming rig. I’d prefer to sit down and relax to play video games than flailing my arms, risking punching someone else or myself in the throat with my hand. Let’s not get on the accidents people have caused from playing the Wii. Low and played out blows to consoles I know but they are very valid. After awhile there’s only so much kicking someone in the shins or watching over-priced DVD‘s you can do before you’re no better than playing them on a PC.
I believe “PC gaming is dying” is a cop-out; scapegoat for those who are naïve on the subject. The foolishness needs to stop. Knowledge is power and once you get in the know, then you can have an opinion on PC gaming. A lot of games which at first were PC exclusives were influenced for consoles, yes that’s where most gamers are at the moment, that because people think you have to use a mouse and keyboard (which is in fact the worst way to play a video game besides Minecraft) for all the games, or the fact that what’s on the console is more enticing than what’s on the PC.
If it wasn’t for PC’s, you wouldn’t have console games. Which brings me to my next part of my rant. These console ported pieces of crap these developers is doing; let me just say, I’m not happy about that. Make the damn PC game first and THEN the console game, why do things ass-backwards?
Anyway, if you’re going to be a PC gamer bashing console fan-boy/fan-girl, at least be educated and bring the facts to the table and not some biased opinion because you’re too lazy to think outside of the box for once in your life. Give PC gaming a try before bash PC gaming, otherwise, you’ll look stupid.
Also, before I close…Alieware and the like does not count as far as “expensive gaming” goes. Only a dummy would buy them pieces of over-priced crap — especially now that Dell took over.

You don’t know me…
-Sigh-
Of course there are people out there with opinions that they try to convince others that they’re facts. Then we got fools who don’t have no facts but assume they know the deal about me for example. Going off what I have been posting in the last week or so doesn’t mean thats all I play. Just because you see the recent games that I played on my gamertag doesn’t mean thats all the hell I play. Just because you can’t even imagine what it would look like to actually sit next to a gamer let alone try and make sarcastic comments about a gamer doesn’t mean what you’re saying is true. Making assumptions about someone you will never meet or know a day in your life is pointless. Yes, I’m a gamer and I shouldn’t have to prove that to anyone but myself.
People can’t just assume shit about someone just based on what they see what the person blogs about or whats on her gamertag. If I went around doing that to people I bet I would be the farthest from the truth with most. I barely play my Xbox 360 any more, I’ve just finished building my gaming PC so excuse me if I don’t list all the games in my blog that I do play or did play or will play. My blog isn’t based on JUST video games. I can’t cover everything in under a month. People who type “LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL” after a tired ass joke fail to realize that they’re the ones they’re laughing at.
People can be so lame because they use their computer as a security blanket, knowing they would never approach someone like that in real life. They would keep all of what they want to truly say in their heads. Its easier to assume what people are/aren’t online. You can’t get all of the facts and details about someone through a font on someones blog especially if you’re going by the content. So the idiot that felt they knew me based on my blog and what was in it, do you feel better? Would you like a damn cookie?
Also, people like me can have every last system that came out with working cords, remotes, and games to most of them but that does not make them a gamer. Building a gaming PC doesn’t make them a gamer either, so lets just clear the airways on that shit before someone tries to use that as a rebuttal. So Lippy or whatever name you used to make your tired ass joke, do you even KNOW what makes a gamer a gamer? You probably don’t because all you could mention was Guitar Hero and The Sims 3. How fail are you? You can, “LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL” all you want but, I’m still going to be a gamer no matter how you or anyone else feel. No matter what you or anyone else assumes.
Furthermore, if anyone, thinks they’re a gamer because they play The Sims 3 and or Guitar Hero well fine okay, people have their OWN definitions but no that doesn’t define mine. So again, know the facts before assuming shit about a gamer you don’t know.
If you must know, my forte is IT if you don’t even know what the hell that is its Information Technology. I rather build gaming PCs than actually play them. I rather design video games than actually play them. I write programs more than I actually play video games. Go ahead and base what you see on what you don’t. Everyone don’t have to talk like a rocket scientist to actually be one. Who likes talking like they ate a Merriam Webster any damn way?
Being a sexist bastard will get you no where! Especially when you don’t know shit about the person.

Things I’ve Noticed While Playing Video Games
I’ve realized and noticed a lot of, eh…er..uh.. hmmm…shit in video games. I guess I shall list them. 9/10 this list will get longer with time. They won’t be categorized or anything crazy like that. I don’t have time to categorized a list. So…moving on.
- Guitar Hero III – Recently I was playing my co-op career with my lovely boyfriend on Hard [don't ask why] and we got a perfect on The Story of My Life song except that I over-strummed and broke the streak. So I recall one of the achievements for this game is to get a 2000 note streak in a co-op career. So you know I was pissed so we tried to go and do it again, well…it failed. My point is, you’re better off just doing it instead of trying to do it cause you’ll realize sometimes you just can’t do the same thing twice or better.
- Call of Duty – Seems that the guns in the Call of Duty 4 Modern Warfare and Call of Duty World at War games only work well in the career and not online. I know this is obvious to most but sheesh they could at least get decent servers. The lag is horrible on the game and then they try and make the games realistic. Well standing in front of someone and shooting them point blank in the head just to find out that it missed cause of the lagging ass servers is not realistic!
- Guitar Hero World Tour – I’ve realized that its easier to get and keep a streak on that game than Guitar Hero III. I don’t know if the level of the song that is required to play that song or what but I can get a 2000-3000 note streak just fine on Guitar Hero World Tour without even trying. Doing that on Guitar Hero III is like pulling teeth. I have yet to get that 20 songs on Expert yet. I was so close and I went and bought a hard-drive, transferred it all for the hard-drive to do is delete it. I only had one song to go. Yea, that was a bitch.
- Rock Band 2 - Hammer-on’s are harder for me to play on here than Guitar Hero. I don’t know why but they are. See I started off playing Guitar Hero games way before I started playing Rock Band games. Being that it seems the hammer-on’s on this game is harder to play because they are so close and little. I guess I get a bit intimidated when it comes to those asshole for mothers ass solo’s. I also can get streaks on this game just fine. Only time I know I get one is when the song is over. The layout by the way for this game is awful.
- Need For Speed Undercover – Besides the fact that this game is one of the most distasteful games in the Need For Speed Saga, the cars are just as bad. The thing I noticed is they never really switch up their cars. & I also heard/saw/read that Cross was going to be in the game, well…where the hell was he on the Xbox 360 version? I know I’m not crazy because I saw him in the trailers when I watched them. I was looking foward to Cross being in there but he wasn’t. How gay is that though?
- Assassin’s Creed - Well lets see, besides that when you get near someone you have to save and there is another one near by the people who are basically messing with the ones you need to say end up saying the same thing if not at once but seconds behind each other. They repeat themselves until you pursue your mission to stop them. Also, the cities they made me go to, well the basically all looked alike, I almost got mixed up a few times because I thought I was some where else on the map. I also noticed how the manage to squeeze the fact that its probably going to be a second Assassin’s Creed in the future at the end. Well I won’t be looking forward to that.
- Resident Evil 5 - The fact that blacks always have something racial to say about everything or try and make it racial. I don’t understand them most of the time and I’m black [well partial anyway]. I’ve noticed this game still manage to sell a lot regardless of what was said about the game being racists. Can’t win for losing I guess. Any other time this wouldn’t of been an issue if they was running around in Manhattan, New York shooting up Caucasian zombies or thugs from Brooklyn. Its hard to be around them sometimes most of the time and not become very annoyed.
- The Xbox 360 – Well since I can’t leave this out of the list. The fact that they get one problem under control, another one pops up. I mean I’m some what a Xbox 360 fan due to the fact A. I don’t have my gaming PC built yet. B. They have more games than the Sony PS3. & C. The console is cheap and I’m a victim of falling for the bullshit every damn time. Anyway, apparently there is something far more worse than the Red Ring of Death. Well lets just hope I don’t have to send my console in for yet a second time not counting my very first xbox which will actually make it a third.
- Guitar Hero III – When I’m the board where you’re at a bar, I can’t think of the name of the board right now but anyway, when you are on that board I’ve noticed that they have these different silly advertisements on the wall. These only occur if you’re connected to the internet while playing. The one I’ve seen recently was “Rent Video Games on the Xbox 360 For FREE!” with a Gamefly logo below it. I don’t know if that’s a joke but it has to be cause isn’t that the whole point in renting video games? How can you rent a video game for free? You even have to pay for the free trial so they need to stop that shit like right now!
- Grand Theft Auto IV – Seems that again with the online game-play when I’m not exactly playing online. Niko Bellic looks odd when I’m running through the city doing missions and just randomly causing havoc. Even the cars change, which is not for the best by the way but for the worst. Also the people tend to be different and do more odd ass shit than usual. I don’t know if have to do with the expansion for the game which is a lousy 20 damn bucks but its weird.
Again, this list will be long once I remember other things I’ve noticed. That or people can just submit what they have noticed in video games too and I can post it. Get our juices flowing just for the hell of it.
