Video Games

Does anyone in WA FTE play video games ever. I know I'm kind of old but it relaxes me. Plus I need to think and use my hands at the same time. I hear even surgeons are doing it nowadays. My game is mainly HALO gut I play GTA San Andreas sometimes. I know it sounds childish but it actually relaxes me when I'm wound up. I know I'm one of the younger members (31) but it really does help take the edge off. Anyone want a game for their computer? I have several. I'll give it to you for free and even teach you how to play it.

What do you have? I play some but not as much as I use to. I'm more into the sports games (baseball, football, and nascar) but have played all types. Got the Call of Duty game for my pc and really like that one. It is nice to sit down and relax with a beer after a long day.

Well, mainly I play Halo. All on the PC(cant afford a game system) but I have GTA San Andreas, Empire Earth, Half Life II, and a few other older ones. It let's me think and use my reflexes after a bad day too.

Yeah, but have you seen any of the trailers for Halo III ?

Now I guess I gotta buy an XBox-360. Watch some of those trailers for it. Aliens taking over Earth. 300 of us against a million of them. SPARTA!!!

NO. The only reason I'm buying the 360 is for one game! Halo III. If you haven't seen any of the trailers I suggest you watch some. That is gonna be the best game EVER!!!

All the more reason to keep playing! The more you play the better your reflexes will get... When my husband, age 61, first started playing he couldn’t even hardly hold the controller, now he’s playing the hard levels!

In my house, we have the original Nintendo, Super Nintendo, three Nintendo 64’s, two X Boxes, a Game Cube, and a Sega Play Station ~ with countless games for each system. So, yeah, I guess you could say we play! I always say I’m buying the stuff “for my kids”, but I play way more than they do!



We have HALO I, and HALO II for the X Box and PC. I love the music for HALO II so much I bought the soundtrack and it’s all I play in my Super Duty!

Not at home. Our town is so remote that we don't have cell service, radio reception, or even television reception. There currently is no high speed internet (crud!), but we do have dial up...

However, my son is an RA at Eastern Oregon University and they have X~Box live. They also have campus wide HALO Wars all the time. It's quite a thing to see!
