Has a video game ever made a major impact on your life?
1. Yes, a game has seriously made my life change for the better
2. Yes, a game has seriously made my life change for the worse
3. Not a major change, but a game has changed my life somewhat
4. Not a single game, but games in general have changed my life
5. No, games are just a way to spend time, they've never been that important
I like to vote in the poll every day for some reason, usually because they have some quirky video game related questions and it's fun to see how the masses of geeks think. On this poll, my initiall reaction was to vote option 4 - if not for video games as a child, maybe I would've been more social, had more friends, and gotten outside more often. Perhaps I wouldn't have been so fat and kids would've liked me more. I wanted to vote, yes, games have changed my life in general. And then I remembered my obsession.
If I wasn't such a geek in the first place, could I have discovered such a hobby? A friend of mine pointed out the irony of it to me the other day - that the harm caused by video games as a child would later be undone by one single video game several years later. Even the universe enjoys a good joke every once in a while, it seems.
More writings later. Right now I am attempting to enjoy a well deserved break from non-stop performances and just school in general, before I get up off my ass and finish some projects I've been working on (not to mention actually start working on my project picture for Regal.)
I might be enjoying break a little too much, actually. Need to get back into playing DDR every day.
