  1. It involves living up to responsibilities - no matter what!    Anyhow, contrary to misogynist etc. thought - lol - it's not wife beating, being a Playboy etc..

    Anyhow, though, a real man isn't pushed around by a woman - true.  However, though, it can be quite egalitarian - more than one thinks!

  2. Believe it or not, now it's a form of entertainment - along with the movies.   Anyway, I don't think the games are that good, though (as in modern).  Well, they're probably games like chess or something. Actually, I can't remember what the games were - as it's been 10 years of so - since I've been on an airliner.

    Questions

    • Who has some ideas to improve airplane gaming?   
    • Would you probably like gaming better than the movies or music?
    • How long a trip would be needed to beat Donkey Kong Country, Mario Bros Wii or Galaxy? 😀

     

  3. Who doesn't like those? 😀   Anyway, they used to be the stereotype of games, you know, back in arcade and Atari days.  Well, anyhow, what good ones are available now?  Note: I don't mean first person shooters - but rather something like where - you get in a spaceship and just start blasting rocks! 

    More Questions

    • What was your favorite/favorites from retro days?
    • Were you any good?  How far did you get?
    • What is your record on the newer ones?
  4. Who has thought of it?  Who has tried it?  Well, surely there is some video online - on how to do it😀    Anyway, it would surely be a hobby thing purely - because it's probably not economically worth it to build one - like it is a PC.

    O.K., if you were building a console from scratch, how might you go about it?   What are some original ideas for your unique console?

  5. Surely consoles have a cooling mechanism - cause they're a computer!   Well, there not seen as such - but that's what they are.   Anyway.  how do these cooling things work?  Are they bigger than what's found in a laptop?   Also, what can push the heat to the limit in a console?  Has anyone had or been near a burnout?

  6. If I had some friends into it - then I might get into it.  I  mean, the whole scene is new to me - so to see some buddies do things, would get me initiated I think.   Anyway, though, I simply have little time for gaming, in general, much less online gaming!   

    O.K., I think racing would be an awesome niche for online gaming.  Who has tried that?  What did you play - and how did you do?

  7. Yeah, that's a problem with many - and it's  not only gaming - but with music, shows, or movies.   I mean, a lot of people like what's familiar. However, though, venturing out can be very rewarding, but sometimes, not - lol.   Well, I think some may have tried new things - and it was so bad - it discouraged future tries?  Anyone think so?

    O.K., well, from business - we know that recommendations can help something new - as in If people seem to like it, then people are more apt to try it.  Anyway, though, the OP noted a list of games - which obviously had good reviews.

  8. Video gaming can be fun.  However, web development, music, 3D art creation or melding your hobby with web development (creating an art of music website) can be just as fun for some people.  Well, I suppose it's a subjective issue with many different opinions.

    Anyway, what do you feel gives gaming a run for it's money (in regards to the topic)?

  9. Video game rage  is part of the fun. No seriously, as long as you don't break anything - or do something else regrettable, then I don't see a problem.  Anyway, I've had my share of it - trying to beat Mario bosses in repeated tries.  Well, look at it this way.  It's a character builder!  😀

    The domain name is very, very short. People are more likely to remember branded domain names that are very, very... Very short. I wish I'd thought of VGR first, or I would have bought it before the guy. If you have a very catchy name, too... that helps, too. But a short name almost, always, always works. Especially when we're in the mobile age, where people need to be reminded of where to go.

    People look at the articles, and like the articles, sometimes forget to click the like button or the connect to facebook likes box which in turn likes the page. And you have to make it prominent. Otherwise all those traffic won't do anything.

    However, the short domain helps, and if you secure the vanity names fast to make it consistent, that's how people find those pages better.

    Yeah, 3-letter and 4-letter .coms are super expensive - and the 5-letter ones are on the way.  Hopefully, 6-letter ones (and Iv'e seen them for drug names) will be expensive soon as I own some.

  11. People doing mass shootings were messed up before they got into video games - or they were messed up apart from the games.  Well, really, mostly the parents are to blame - for raising weak kids - but sometimes parents have an legit excuse.

     

    Now when I say weak - I mean not necessary weak - in the common sense - but could also be applied to morally warped freaks.

    Being a classic gamer, used is my only avenue. And once a company releases a new system, games stop being made for the previous one. So they stop making money from the old stuff. Sony isn’t making money from PS2 games anymore, and Nintendo isn’t making money from N64 games anymore. So I highly doubt they give a shit. And considering that we’re in the classic/flashback era of systems, the real thing only exists for those of us who were there at launch.

    I wonder if that's the same deal with the used and free, maybe sometimes illegal - movie and music market.

    I think it definitely has replaced the heroes. And there is lot credit to netflix and other places where they brainwashed the new generation with the content. I think good old days of political non interference is not there anymore. 

    Yeah, but it seems like if there's a demand for movies - the demand would be met.  Don't they even notice the large number of people who like action movies?

  14. Well, we all know about Mario Kart - and I love it!  However, though, many others exist.   Have you tried them?  Does anyone play them seriously?   What do you feel are the best?  Have you won them or did well?  Who did some online racing - and I would include Mario Kart?

  15. I was reading this survival mag - and it was talking about how gaming had replaced the action heroes of the past.  I mean, is there any Arnold Schwarzeneggers anymore?  Well, anyway, some have blamed this on political correctness - but as mentioned, - PC hasn't really affected gaming, at least not to the extent many claim.  Anyone think a movement against macho gaming will gain real traction?

  16. These are tougher than they seem. I mean, I play drums pretty well - but surely, I couldn't keep up with Drum Hero (forgot the name)!  Well, it would take some practice, at least!  Anyway, as mentioned, the problem is speed.

  17. Who likes these?  Well, I'm talking about games like Monopoly!, Trivial Pursuit or some non-American equivalents?  Anyway, myself, I love Monopoly! and Trivial Pursuit, but I haven't tried the games.  I also remember liking Life! - but I haven't tried the game.

    O.K., who has mastered these or done well?  Have you enjoyed them online?

  18. Who likes games like Jeopardy!, Wheel of Fortune - or perhaps some non-American equivalent?   Myself, I like Jeopardy! - but I haven't tried the game.  In fact, I've never tried any of them actually - but I only have time for Mario type or sports games (if any).

    O.K., who has won these games or done well?  Who has played online?

  19. I don't have any serious health issues.  However, though, my bodybuilding is highly limited by back problems.  That's why I only lift 10 or 20 pound dumbbells - and if I need more action, I just have to do more reps.  However, doing more reps can be boring so I have to be a master of keeping the mind occupied.

    Well, anyway, when it comes to sports games  - I think gaming can be 2nd best to actually playing many times.  Well, actually, there's no chance you could play a sports game - like on a video game.  I mean, who is really going to be in the NFL?
