Dear Mainstream gaming,

Post by sethsez »

I think I left a pair of boxers over at your house the other night. I was wondering if I could swing by later today to pick them up... I could go over tomorrow, but I'm doing laundry later tonight so it would be more convenient for me to just come by after work. Shoot me a line and tell me whatever works best.

Hugs and kisses,
Seth

It's quite simple.

I was bored, so I made a thread mocking FatCobra's latest whine-fest.

Post count +1 works, too.

I do complain alot...I just need to swallow my pride and just stop bitching. I can't help it though, I just felt that videogames were better in some aspects back then. :cry:

Dear Mainstream Gaming,

I'm currently hot, wet, and thinking of you. I only have eyes for your sales numbers and want to ever so gently prod at your Greatest Hits rereleases with my fingers. Oh look, there goes my shirt. It must be getting hot in here, what with the air conditioning broken and all. Doesn't this remind you of the time we were in Seattle for the launch party and I had a little too much to drink? We had the hottest time on that couch in the back.

You know how I adore your rumble features and voice communication. Remember when I said to take out Bravo Company and you told me to, "go fuck my fat mother"? Oh that was a hoot. I knew you were just joking, I knew you only had eyes for me. I could tell by how easilly I turn you on with the most delicate of finger manuvers. You know, it's just you and me here right now. We're all alone...together. Oh my! It seems you want me to put something into you.

Yes, yes... that's it...accept my "God of War". Take it all in. Yes....that's it. Nice and slow... now just sit back while I press all the right buttons...

Dear Mainstream Gaming,

Is this true? Have you really been sleeping around behind my back? Don't lie to me... I've had enough. You think I never see these letters? I know more than you think I do, and I'm sick of being made the fool.

Well, that does it. I'm leaving you, Mainstream Gaming. I thought we had something, I really did. You vowed that the days of infidelity were behind you, and I trusted you. How could you do this to me? And worse yet, how could I let you do it to me?

Dearest Mainstream Gaming,

I'm writing this letter from inside your house. I can see you as you're now reading it. You shouldn't have released so many stealth games, M.S.G.

P.S. Turn around lol.

Dear Mainstream Gaming,

I hear you have something (actually 3 somethings) planned for next year. I think you call it "next-gen" or something. And that one of these "next-gens" is called something 360 or some crap like that. Well, I feel like you forcing this new stuff on me too quickly. I've only met your slim friend PS2 a few months ago. I don't have time for every new thing and idea you come up with. Hold it back another year or two and get back with me. It might be longer since my old friend SNES was a victim of the dreaded "over-zealous mother who likes to sell stuff she thinks is old junk." If you excuse me, PS2's begging me to play Castle of Shikigami 2 with her. Who'd knew that she likes cheap, fast, old school stuff?

Yours truely,

Christopher Raymond Tichanuk

What really gets me, is why you would ever remove your boxers and get naked with mainstream gaming in the first place?

Dear Mainstream Gaming:

I will never forgive you. You have killed something very dear to me. You have killed something which gave me pleasure and for this I can never forgive you.

It is through your doing--and perhaps economics, but let's not get sidetracked--that you took them from me. Why? What did I ever do to you? O true apothecary, woe is me!

Okay, I didn't buy or play Terra Nova, though I was aware of it at the time. And I didn't have a decent enough computer at the time of release to run Ultima Underworld or System Shock. And I didn't actually play System Shock until a few years ago, and I still haven't played Ultima Underworld, though I have played and enjoyed its spiritual sequel Arx Fatalis (PC release). And I really, really liked System Shock 2--really I did--but it is not exactly relevant here. And my brother was the one that liked flight simulators, but he was fine with Microsoft Flight Simulator.

No, the issue is Thief: the Dark Project and its sequel Thief II: the Metal Age.

I liked the first Thief a lot--maybe too much. I even liked the mission other people hated, namely the Bonehoard.
Then the sequel was in the works and I was elated. But the publisher rushed it out the door in a presumably unfinished fashion and the developer had to make patches to try to make it better. I was okay with that.

But then the developers never were able to finish one part and for that, Mainstream Gaming (if that is your real name), I will never ever ever ever ever ever never ever ever be able to forgive you. Your demands and economics--maybe I should have gotten sidetracked afterall--caused the eventual death of one thing that for and of and forthwith and forthright and to and fro I shall never forgive you for so long as I shall both live, amen:

You killed the Burricks.

[and LGS]


PPS: agree with Rob.

Dear Mainstream Gaming,

If the poison doesn't kill you I'm going to enter your house and stab you until there's nothing left but a pile of severed cords and broken memory cards, so you better hope the poison works. Ingest the letter to make it faster.

P.S. Enclosed is a picture of what it will look like before I stab you.

Dear Mainstream Gaming,

How can you tell if a girl likes you? All my mates can get loads of girls but I don't know how and I am too embarrassed to ask.
