Humiliation? No, no, no, it definitely wasn’t a humiliation. My urine isn’t something that just anyone can have rained over them. You should be happy Anon.
Some of those west coast Counter Strike:Source servers were the kind that would be full all day. You could just play and play and everyone was always up for another round. Sometimes the host had custom music and sound effects and he'd play the Kirk vs Spock duel music when it was down to 1v1.
I don't know if the online play of those days will ever be surpassed.
Jesus, anon. You’re making me depressed. While I was a total halogay, CSS was the peak on online gaming and will never be surpassed. If you weren’t there then you just wouldn’t understand…
Some things aren't meant to be preserved. Some things are meant to stay as cherished memories.
That's what the morons screeching about The Crew and """"""""video game preservation""""""" can't seem to grasp. Not everything is meant to last forever, morons. What did you think was going to happen to the fricking online car game that has a peak of 20 players online in the past 10 years? Gamers are legitimately cringe.
Community hosted dedicated servers are simply the only way for online multiplayer to remain feasible, a game's lifespan dictated by the life and death of the community.
This is going to sound really gay but I was able to regain this feeling by doing something in my life.
Smoking weed and playing vidya - meh
Smoking weed and playing vidya after having hiked a long distance that was a real fricking challenge to my knees - absolutely fricking level 9000 relaxation
Smoking weed and cooking something for a potluck - weed is fun again
Smoking weed and thinking of an upcoming trip that I have planned - yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay
Whenever I have a day off I divide it into two parts. Before the evening I do things that are in some way "useful" - do sports, clean the house, duolingo, whatever. The point is, this takes away all the feeling along "wow you're a fat slob just fat slobbing on your fat slob couch". Then in the evening I open a few beers and chill, being proud of myself.
I also recommend looking up other hobbies. Recently I got interested in /toy/s and that's what I'm doing while chilling instead of vidya, unless I stumble upon vidya that I truly want to play, not like "I have some time off, I should be playing vidya"
Also, I usually try spending as much time as possible outside my house. This sucks during winter, but on sunny days my mood immediately improves the moment I step out of the building.
You're convincing your neurochemistry that you're doing something other than nitpicking, hiding from predators and stealing food from men that you are fruitlessly cuckolding. The r-strategist life is stressful and modern society doesn't care that it's unintentionally forcing people to slip into it.
Shopping at Electronics Boutique and Babbages. I was kinda poor and couldn't afford the new 360, so was grabbing a two foot stack of original Xbox games for $70-$80 (Microsoft killed the system so they were desperate to unload what they had).
Then my girlfriend and friends would check out Suncoast Motion Picture for anime VHS/DVD/LD.
Then go home and watch "The Ring" and "Dark Water" that scared the living hell out of us.
Pizza and Pepsi were the choice (I'm back to Coke now).
I miss having my own place. Having friends. Having a girlfriend. Having sex. Having hope for a future for the career i was studying for in college. The palm trees, hot summers in Florida, sandy beaches, rum runners (kinda like a rum Icee),
But those days are over and they're never coming back. And I guess that's fine. It was great while it lasted.
All of these are still obtainable. I feel bad for zoomies who will be nostalgic for their fortnite or whatever other always online shit they play because then it'll be permanently dead, they will not have an option to go back but you do.

This may be controversial, especially coming from someone rural, but hiking sucks. It's the least comfy hobby of them all. Too much planning, too much gear, you can never carry enough water, party splits for no reason, and someone can always step on a landmine.
Days when we smoke weed and snack are 100x more enjoyable.
There were a few short years as an older teenager where weed immensely improved the enjoyment I got out of video games but in my early 20s it started to suck. Half the time I'd get too tired to really pay attention or engage with the game and even when that didn't happen it felt like it just dulled my brain and made it hard to really have fun doing anything. Eventually it felt like it was doing the opposite of enhancing my experience and made me bored. Don't really smoke any more and I have much more fun with my hobbies than I did when I was a pothead
The Xbox 360 dashboard at launch with the blades design was the peak of Xbox UI and it's been a sharp drop ever since. Especially starting with that embarrassing Mii rip-off shit.

Pozzed. My favorite childhood memories similar to this though are around 04-06. One involves eating pizza hut pepperoni pizza, cinnamon sticks and cold Pepsi while playing RE0 on my gamecube with my bro, exploring the Umbrella Training Facility. Other one is also Friday night but I'm by myself, playing Fatal Frame 2 and then eating a Quiznos sub for dinner and browsing vidya forums and chatting with friends on MSN instant messenger late into the night. There's others like this but those two are usually the first ones that come to mind as far as cozy after school memories go. I also remember getting my Wii a few days after Christmas during winter break. Was playing silent hill 2 all afternoon and listening to music, and then went to the store with my family and they had just restocked the Wii (was hard to find after it launched), which was meant to be the main Christmas present for my little bro and I. Got Twilight Princess too. Went home and played Wii Sports and Zelda all night with my brother. Childhood ruled sometimes
For me it was 3 liters of beer.
Alcoholism is fun to look back on once you beat it. So many wasted gaming session, beating games so drunk I could play them again the next day since I forgot it all.
Good times.
The past was horrible for everything except socialisation. Because there was effectively no Black folk. White people were just as bad though if not worse. Some were ok, some weren't and there were gangs of whites like there are gangs of Black folk now. The shit people stuck together and did everything as a degenerate unit. Because they weren't anything alone. Games weren't worth your time then, they are a substitute for having a life, something to do if you're not fit enough to frick, explore, do things. Better I guess when they aren't as appealing, so other things are sought out more.
For me, it was Sprite. Peak Halo 3 online was not and won't ever be topped. Unfortunately, Discord has killed speaking to randos.
Speaking to randos in the last 15 years has killed any desire I had of speaking to randos anymore
its not only discord's fault. its the fault of these corps and devs that have such thin fricking skin that simply typing 'gg' can money-stolen you. why risk it
For me, it was diet coke. Peak Gears Of War 1 online was not and won't ever be topped.
You can acquire all those things quite easily
How do I acquire the time period?
Just become a time wizard
how about you post instructions homosexual
After spending 5 years as an apprentice wizard you get to choose your specialization
Apprentice wizard? Is that around 35 or does that come after the manifestation at 40?
If you aren't a proper wizard by 40 then it's over for you
Just exchange the 360 for a PC and you have 2024
Humiliation? No, no, no, it definitely wasn’t a humiliation. My urine isn’t something that just anyone can have rained over them. You should be happy Anon.
>you will never again be in middle school watching adult swim late at night on a friday after playing gears on 360 with your buds
>you'll never chill in a halo 2 pre-game lobby while watching Inuyasha together ever again

you dont enjoy video games
Please tell me what that incoherent moron babble has to do with what I said.
There's a lot of things I miss back then.

For me it's Dark Souls 2 pvp when it was a fricking mess. Just don't get rage messages like you used to.
i replayed halo 3 the other day
it's kinda...shit?
xbox today

:O
drug addicts are so cringe
lol you can't get addicted to weed, moron
Typical cringe drug addict moron
I’ve never seen Rick and Morty but didn’t realize it came out in the 90s/early 2000s, anon. Go back.
I unironically miss paying for gamer pictures.
Should I, Ganker?

Weed is for losers.
Video games are for losers
True. Both are for losers.
This may be controversial, especially coming from someone rural, but hiking sucks. It's the least comfy hobby of them all. Too much planning, too much gear, you can never carry enough water, party splits for no reason, and someone can always step on a landmine.
Days when we smoke weed and snack are 100x more enjoyable.
what third world country do you live in where you run the risk of stepping on a landmine
Croatia. At least when someone makes a game about it, they can make the palyer explode when he gets out of level bounds like in CoD2.
>Croatia
Damn, I'm so sorry, anon.

I was playing WoW TBC and drinking shitty alcopop while raiding Karazhan.
>stopped playing video games for the most part
>now learning to draw while i listen to music and podcasts
Feeling a lot better, to be honest.
The Xbox 360 dashboard at launch with the blades design was the peak of Xbox UI and it's been a sharp drop ever since. Especially starting with that embarrassing Mii rip-off shit.

Never be the same.

GamePass got cancelled.
