I guess I am what you call a casual gamer. Don’t flame me. Not really sure what “flame” means, but that sounds like something you hard core peeps might do to a casual gamer like me.
A few nights ago I decided to create a profile on Xbox. I thought my husband would be proud of me. When he came home from work I showed him my new profile and the 5 achievement points I had earned. Besides laughing at me for using my real name for my Gamer Tag, I think he was a little proud. He spent the next hour walking me through a new game of Grand Theft Auto.
Surprisingly, I liked it! I liked the characters and doing the missions. It was fun, and it didn’t frustrate me as much as some other games have. I tend to get bored when I can’t figure out how to do something in a game. The controls in Halo 3 confused me, and I hated it. Yes, I said I hated Halo.
However, I do like Rock Band. Doc and I spent Saturday night playing Rock Band 2. My attention span is usually short with video games, but we played for hours. I even had my first experience with XBox Live. We played in a band with Lono and his wife. I can play a pretty mean bass guitar on medium.
Maybe my days of being a casual gamer are coming to an end. GTA and Rockband all in the same week? That is pretty hardcore. I am going to go play some solitaire on my phone now.

Great article Wifey! You are awesome !
Doc will be so proud. lol
There’s shopping in Rock Band 2 too
Doc must be so proud!
I’m with you on Halo though – not because of the controls, just because I think it’s terrible.
It’s gonna be a proud moment in the Adams household when Wifey runs over her first hooker in GTA 4.
Be sure to take plenty of pictures!!!
That is awesome. I think its great that you took it upon yourself to create an account. My girlfriend made a profile on my 360 and tried to play some Halo 3 with me but was also frustrated by the control scheme.
I finally did get her into gaming though when I got her a DS.
that’s FANTASTIC!!!!
What you people fail to realize is that I only have ONE Xbox 360.
Wait. maybe if we had a PS3…. there would be no conflicts!
OMG. this IS a good thing.
Doc, it isn’t a good thing
IT IS A AMAZING THING!!!!!
but you shouldnt say you only have one 360 because the wifey might say “you can get another Xbox” Then you wouldnt get any far what-so-ever
all i can say is i cant even get my Girlfriend to even look at GTA IV let alone play it!!
Wifey, Be Prepared to get all the Halo fanboy emails. Coming your way soon
Haha loved it
more….
that would be sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet
please ??’
u should do a reveiw of gta4
@Yamster:
You dirty bastard!
*applause*
Cute! I have the reverse going on in my house. My BF bought me GTA for my birthday and he can’t figure out how to play it. It’s cute when he tries though….lol. You go girl!
Yay Wifey!
@HeavenlyYeti that comment made my day it really did.
and the article was great nice to see article from you. I hope you write another one now and again.
My wife doesn’t play games hardly at all but everytime Enter the Sandman comes on RockBand while my kids and I are playing She has to sing the vocals. She then spends the rest of the day singing “sleep with one eye open”. LOL
Haha, congrats wifey!
Yay wifey! Please write more often, and congrats on entering the shark-infested waters of hardcore gaming.
A comment by Yousty and an article by wifey on the same day? That hasn’t happened in a while.
Aside from that, I don’t know if your casualness is coming to an end. Then again, Green Grass and High Tides could hardly be called casual, and earning achievement points…hell, welcome to the gaming community! We have a maximum amount of personal hygiene per week, though, in case you missed the memo.
Haha, that was the best article of yours yet!
Actually, you only have two and one was announcing Tshirt sales… Keep it up!
you = awesome
Hame sandwich to you wifey
doc. you have no idea how lucky you are to have this woman. I hope your both very happy and by the gods if I ever see you two together I will send you a f***ing cake. Yes I do have a very random personality, thank you for asking
What I want to know is, favourite character? Brucie? Little Jacob? Who I say?
-claps!-
: D that’s great!!
Nice work! You should try Gears of War. LOL a nice evening for you and Doc, cutting up Locusts together. Awwww
