There are people out there who think video games are violent. But after AntiSceptic played yesterday with his gamerscore of 1,040 points, there wasn’t any violence at all. A little drooling maybe but definitely no violence. That is a profit of 15 points over last time! He made some progress on PGR 3 picking up 1 achievement, Peggle, Zuma, and oh… don’t tell AntiSceptic this, but I have been getting in a little video chat in the off-hours. Booyah!

I don’t think that they are violent. Boring maybe. What has happened to the old intelligent blogs about life, the universe, and jelly babies?

I think the Xbox has control now. It has gaffer taped Chris to the chair, superglued his hands to the controller leaving just his thumbs and first fingers free so he has no choice but to play, play and play some more 😛

@John – I don’t write these posts. Seriously. See the more recent “I’m Not Mad” post here – https://chrismerriman.com/i-am-not-mad/ and check the link in it for the earlier explanation. Intelligent posts? Think you must have this site confused with another 🙂 There have been a few recently, the Suggestions For Improvements To Kazakhstan will hopefully build into a series, I have a few more Anna photos to upload, and the Amsterdam 2007 piccies are also waiting. Real life with Anna and living in a foreign country has curtailed my posting regime a little for now though, I admit.
@AlexC – no gaffer tape involved, though I do often play Peggle when I’m looking after Anna, she isn’t particularly talkative/awake, and I need to stay alert until Irina wakes up and we swap roles – baby looking after/sleeping 🙂
