Beat Writer  Posts: 187 Joined: 8 May 2008   | Mine would have ot bearound the time I was playing through some JRPG, forget now, but I had locked and baracaded my door. dresser, filled with clothes and by bed behind it leaving about a footof room if the door had been opened, it would have only givin about a foot to get through. I still dont remember how I managed to move all of it. But I had my door liek that for about two days I snuck out my window to get foor and use the restroom at my neiborghs. uhh, but I came home one time and it was fixed. |

Press Junketeer  Posts: 388 Joined: 19 Jun 2008 | When I got Knights of the Old Republic, I moved my xbox to my room and stayed home for the first two days of a school week playing it. After three days, I had played about 35 hours and only left to eat and use the bathroom. |

haha, exactly the same for me but mine was only for like 18 hours :) |
Pulitzer Laureate  Posts: 988 Joined: 22 Sep 2008    | I've totally skipped seeing friends or even talking to them on the phone to play games before - too many times to count, really. I have one friend who, whenever he comes over to my house, just plays the newest game I have for hours on end while I sit around doing nothing. I've actually lied about not buying new games before just because I don't want that to happen. |
Paperboy  Posts: 28 Joined: 11 Aug 2008    | When I was playing Monster Hunter Freedom 2 I used to pack my PSP with me whenever I went to friends parties, family gatherings or even out to a nightclub and shortly after arriving neglect everyone to go find a dark corner to continue monster hunting to max out my tree of Hunting Horns, assemble a full collection of every armor set, every Village and Offline Hunters Guild quests. I stopped playing when I realised I had clocked up over 300 hours of gameplay. |

ULTRAJOE wins at everything Mine would probably have to be the first week I got GTA IV, I stayed in my room and took no calls, I didn't eat for the first 2 days and only got up to go to the bathroom when I was about to explode, my friends told me I looked about 10 pounds heavier and white as paper. |

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 3300 Joined: 1 Nov 2007   | I had a few mates round the other day. Well, one mate and a hot girl. So what do I do? I'm bored so I pick up my 360 controller and completey ignore them. Sam askes if I've got any good multiplayer games. "Nah, don't worry" I say "This is fine." They leave 3 minites later. |

That sounds about right. You've made me proud. |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1587 Joined: 5 May 2008   | I first got Fable on a Friday afternoon on the way home from school. My friend was having a get together that night, and Saturday night was another friend's birthday party. I turned my phone off and didn't leave the house all weekend. But aside from that the one that takes the cake is similar to Ultra Joe's. It wasn't a date though, it was a party my friends and I had been planning to go to for weeks, and it wasn't a raid, it was just a group of five of us from my guild doing Uldaman. Sad, I know. I quit WoW a few short levels later (Level 46 to be exact). |
Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1574 Joined: 31 Aug 2008 | I dream of being a socially reclusive gamer, and one of the "things I want to do when I grow up" is build a gaming room that could shame the ancient Egyptians. The limited dreams I have about my children is teaching them to become total nerds and become my gaming companions, all while my wife goes grocery shopping for twenty or thirty years. The fact that that is one my ultimate goals in life shames even me. |

BANNED  Posts: 5167 Joined: 26 Feb 2008  | I killed one of my team mates on Battlefront II because he killed my friend whom I was dog-fighting with. I was in a TIE Interceptor, he was in an X-Wing. This guy comes out of nowhere and kills my friend. Fourth or fifth time he stole my kill. I unloaded my weapons into his TIE Fighter. We both laughed so hard at the guy when I did it.

Gone Gonzo  Posts: 1075 Joined: 4 Sep 2008 | Not me, but my brother and I were playing Age of Empires across our LAN, years ago when we first set it up. Actually, my friend was round and he was playing my brother. Now my brother borders on having the OC disorder, and likes to build his base up and advance very precisely before going to war. Therefore, I directed my friend to build 3 clubmen, and destroy his base. And he did. My brother stormed into my room, shouted 'YOU'RE NOT PLAYING IT RIGHT!!' and punched, literally punched, my friend. I laughed so hard. |

That sucks, but I don't think playing SOCOM was such a horrible thing to do. I wouldn't want to be sitting around crying with people either, that would just make me feel worse. It's perfectly understandable to go play videogames and escape. |

What's the most anti social thing you've done? Gaming related.
For me it was a couple years ago, and I had just got Grandia 3 for my PS2. That afternoon my dad was planning a party, with a few friends invited.
Well instead of being apart of the party, I locked myself in my room, and played the game. Now that I look back on it, it embarrasses me. God knows what everyone must have been thinking...
