What's your saddest memory involving video games? I'll start.
>be me >2008 >Super Smash Bros Brawl for Nintendo Wii just came out >First game I ever pre ordered >had to go to lame ass birthday party before i could go pick it up >ate hella spicy chicken wings while there >get game >go home >play >finally >My cat (pretty much my only friend at that point in my life) was limping when i got home, he was old so probably why >didn't think much about it just wanted to play smash >hours pass im almost done with the story mode >My mom yells for me to come downstairs >My cat is dying >I go up to his bed to pay my final respects >he grabs my hand with both of his paws and gives me one last meow >seeyouspacecowboy.jpg >I alater had chronic diarrhea because of the chicken wings I ate
>invest hundreds of hours into game >hundreds of dollars too if it has micro transactions >end up feeling hollow and like I have wasted so much time playing >realize that all Ive done is rearrange some ones and zeros in a hard drive >want to quit but would feel like it would make the time and money I spent on the game an even bigger waste.
Has happened many times, I just keep finding new games to fool myself with, maybe one day I will find the one that gives me the satisfaction and peace of mind I desire

>high school gf breaks up with me >only dated like a month but I got super fucking attached >a couple months go on >I get super creepy, vagueposting and sending her weird messages >she retaliates via angry vagueposts about me >mom takes my phone for a week for unrelated reasons >on browser on PS3 >see that she messaged me finally >tells me if I try to contact her again shell fucking kill me >put in Saints Row 3 (my obsession at the time) >go up to the top of the penthouse >jump off >stare blankly as I watch my avatar fall to his death >wish that it were me
Not really sad I guess, but I felt like I had to re-live that.

That would be the countless of times both of my parents fought, and I used videogames to ignore my reality. No matter how shit school or my home was, fantasy always would welcome me.
>Be me 16 >High School Jr. >Make friends with local autists at skewl >All they do is play CSGO >Decide it would be a good idea to introduce them to League of Legends because of similar competitive market >They instantly become addicted >Literally is all they do in their free time now >Imayhavefuckedup.exe >Game starts to take over their Lives >They start playing with randoms more >Think maybe if I introduce them to smoking weed, they'll be less of losers, and start hanging out more >mfw it turns them into even bigger losers >Now all they do it get high and play League of Legends >Friends won't even leave the house anymore, except to get weed. >One friend meets a girl on League of Legends >drives 10 hours to her house >Knocks her up >Drops out of Medical School >is now working full time at a paper printing factory in Missouri >Mfw I unintentionally ruined my friends entire Life
