Video game memories that aren't about video games

[Misogynist Vegeta]

Does anybody else have video game related memories that aren't about the video games themselves but where you were when you were playing them, I have plenty of these memories of me playing my DS while at certain events or at school or in my own backyard.

Most of my favorite video game memories have little to do with actually playing the video games. I wonder if I even like video games, really.

I have more bad memories that aren't about videogames. For example when I was playing MGS2, my mom started asking me if I was being sexually abused in school

When my irl best friend, his little brother and I were 1 v 2ing each other in a game of MW3 and sniped them both to death and they respawned near and tried to sneak up and kill from behind on my sniping position.

So I hopped off and went around the building, and they were where I was sniping from and I ran up and knifed them both to death.

My friend then proceeded to ask "What are you?"

My best memories were from the PS2 era, when I was a kid, before puberty, life was much better, no pressure to get a girlfriend, no need to get a girlfriend at that time, the world wasn't so retarded back then

When I was younger I was playing a tournament bracket and I lost the second game while the other player was really toxic, it made me angry and sad, then my parents come in my room and I hide my tears away and they take me out to eat a buffet and I was happy

i mostly just played video games inside by myself so it all kind of blurs together

This is a good thread, man. I have these memories as well, which is why I prefer to play certain video games from that time and that time alone, because I was genuinely happy back then.

There was my aunt, my uncle, his mother and their cat.
It was cozy there. I barely left home. I've played certain games all day.
Was on vacation back then and visited them.

It took me a while that I like those video games because of the time I had the privilege of spending with them.

Back the I would play Resident Evil 3, the whole original Spyro trilogy, some Test Drive Off Road either 2 or 3, Tunnel B1, Crash Bandicoot 3.

These games help me remember that time.

Yeah, playing DS while on a camping trip, I was playing Mario Kart multiplayer with the people there.

My greatest gaming memory was playing nfs hp 2010,pes 2013 and fifa 2013. it's not about the games themselves it's about the atmosphere and the feel that cannot be simply replicated anymore

booting up your console to play a game that normies casually play only to end up stuck staring at the menu with g# by kitten for fifa 2013 or dreamers by savoir adore in pes 2013 playing and you just get that bliss and momentarily forget about all the abuse you took in your highschool class earlier that day

I remember trying out emulation for the first time and playing lots of 8 and 16 bit games for the first time on my grandparents' computer in their office computer room. Great times, before grandma died.

Playing GW1 at a friend's house that was a blast ,not because of the game
itself but being with freinds

 

[ogercel]

I love videogames lots of adventures and great memorable moments.

Wtf i think she just wanted to ruin your playtime as bitches (including my mum) hate it when men enjoy themselves unless she has a point

Peak gaming to be honest

i mostly just played video games inside by myself so it all kind of blurs together

Gotta play story games not just gameplay or grindslop

These games help me remember that time.

The ps1 was truely revolutionary and helped many to cope

 

[ToBurble&Pine]

Wtf i think she just wanted to ruin your playtime

She certainly did
I always end up crying every time I finished it

Not with MGS3 because I played that game on my birthday

 

[Rezar_En_La_Ventana]

You cannot make actual memories about it since you are not the one who is inside the videogame. I have very few memories related to gaming in proportion with my loads of hours. We are just copers losers, everything you look fondly at about your history in gaming is not gaming related.

Yeah my mum used to get pissed when i read comics or graphic novels (not porn) imagine if i had manga.

As long as youre not a molestedcel

I can associate a certain number of games with certain periods of my life
