Christmas 1991, opened up a NES pack including Super Mario Bros 3. I was in a two dimensional heaven.
I was experiencing new and exciting transformations with the likes of the 'Tanooki Suit', the 'Frog Suit' and the 'Hammer Suit'.
My siblings could not keep up with my addiction so i had to try and complete the game solo with Mario..and myself.
I did just that..
A few days later our house had been broken into with all of our belongings stolen including the NES with all of the games i had bought over the year.
I overheard a discussion between one of the detectives and my parents about how they were not too sure whether the thieves had weapons or not when the robbery took place...
After over hearing the discussion i could not sleep for weeks, i did not have Mario or Double Dragon to keep me occupied on those sleepless nights.
I would like to thank the thief/thieves for saving my childhood from possibly a very very unhealthy addiction.....
and then creating my adolescent sleeping disorder.
2.) VIDEO GAMES.
1- Bomberman World (I first played the demo version of this game and it did exactly what it was supposed to. It got me hooked and the multiplayer option is nearly drawing even with Super Mario Kart..)
2- Mortal Kombat (One of the reasons why the Entertainment Software Rating Board was founded for its graphic fatalities, blood and gore. They made 2 movies based on the game, genius.)
3- World Of Warcraft (This game has a large controversial background of addictions, epidemics, abbreviations and youtube videos. I once had a slight addiction to the game at one stage, something i am not proud of... This resulting in bloodshot eyes and blurred vision, possibly the reason why i am now short sighted. Addictions being so common South Park referred an episode to the game called Make love, not warcraft.)
4- Double Dragon (This is the ultimate 2 player beat em' up game. If you have a brother or friend you want to form a strong bond or friendship. Play two player Double Dragon mode with them and you will then be the ultimate team and become unstoppable! NOTE: Only in the game...)
5- GoldenEye 007 (So many new games have attempted to re-create something as good as GoldenEye and have failed miserably. It is and always will be one of the best first-person shooter games ever created, even if it was mostly ever played on N64 with those mammoth size controllers.)
Try finding this kind of cutting edge video game review in a magazine!!
Results of the Goth As Fuck party were like this...
I attempted this.
and got this..
Getting into character is tough..
