-z00k - xaque, on 10/12/2007, -11/+92more like... awesomest idea ever!
"Warning: People might think you are weird." - PoVRAZOR, on 10/12/2007, -2/+80Man, I'm Level 65, double fused, wielding two Mighty Swords of Jake, a double turban, and a pair of goggles on my ass. Screw Burning Crusade. GOTY.
- oOLiquidNightOo, on 10/12/2007, -3/+73"a pair of goggles on my ass"
you'll need those in later levels so you can see *****. - TechnoGuyRob, on 10/12/2007, -10/+73If this was a question on Jeopardy, I would say:
What is D&D? - Ascendant, on 10/12/2007, -8/+63Instead of doing this, why not just masturbate instead?
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -9/+63I don't know what's worse, actually doing this or being the person who posted the how-to for this.
- cliffzdude, on 10/12/2007, -4/+56Sounds like a young kid with a great imagination, good for him.
- mrvalue, on 10/12/2007, -6/+57I think I'm going to cry... For the love of God, has no one ever seen Jeopardy??
- scottmoss, on 10/12/2007, -9/+48Great idea..... if your in prison and have no life....
- calbff, on 10/12/2007, -4/+38You could always do both, you know.
- Jolene, on 10/12/2007, -6/+40It can't be a video game... Cause theres no..Well..Video...
- Jaymoon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+31Any hacks?
- bisecke, on 10/12/2007, -1/+33Assign ten different enemy attacks from 0-9, and when it is the enemy's turn, glance at the clock on the wall or your watch. The first "tick" you hear when you're looking tells you the attack number, from which you derive their attack. Or if you lack the imagination for 0-9, use 0-4 and let 5-9 refer back to the original set.
I'm ashamed of myself for even being involved in this conversation. I'd best be off to redeem myself by beating up some geeks. They're easy to find. One is sitting at my computer right now... =P - LFAB, on 10/12/2007, -0/+31I did. It sucked--my papers blew away. I was already at level 50, and now it's just GONE!
- andydude117, on 10/12/2007, -9/+40Well I'd rather masturbate in public than play this game
- crilen007, on 10/12/2007, -1/+30What if I want to attack the darkness with Magic Missile?
- TechnoGuyRob, on 10/12/2007, -2/+30Sure there is! "Video" stems from latin for "I see." And you can certainly see what's going on! If you played this purely in your head THEN it wouldn't be a video game. :)
- 022A, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18Such smug responses, fitting with the ignorant title.
I think this is great and not far off from things I created for myself as a child. They were games, art and stories all at once.
Maybe I'm being overdramatic but it's sad to think that imagination is something that people have come to look down on. Are people such "consumers" that even ideas have no value without a price tag? - Osmanthus, on 10/12/2007, -3/+21When I was a kid when nobody had video games, we played a game like asteroids on paper.
It could be two people or one, ill describe the two person version.
On the far ends of a piece of paper, draw a little base for each player. Between them, draw a bunch of asteroids so there are only windy narrow passageways between them.
Each players gets maybe 5 spaceships that start from their base. On each turn, the active ship can either shoot or move. To do either, the player would take a pencil and stand it on the point at the tip of the little triangle shaped ship. He would then, with only that one finger on the eraser holding it up, flick the pencil point in the direction they wanted to move or fire. If it was a 'fire', a one centimeter hole was drawn through any asteroid up to the point where the pencil line became invisible. If it was a 'move' the ship would be erased and moved to the end of the pencil line, unless it would hit an asteroid in which case a crater was drawn at the impact point. The winner was the one who blew out the center of the other players base first.
It was actually a fairly entertaining. - ayeroxor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+18ad0beaddict: "you would never loose unless you like rly hate yourself"
What would I loosen unless I like arley what? - mecole21, on 10/12/2007, -8/+26how bout you just punch yourself in the face repeatedly... it might be a little more fun
- ucg1, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16Did you call it Paper Mario?
Sorry, couldn't resist... - FishPoisonCon, on 10/12/2007, -0/+14you didn't read the "tips" at the bottom, did you?
..."rub out some damage.." ;^) - Tredici, on 10/12/2007, -8/+20And when you reach level 10 you could face the evil white acid spewing snake of doom.
- Ralphy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+13Whats a book?
- jonconley, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11@022A
I agree with you on this one. These are probably kids that were spoiled with video games their whole life and babysat by their TVs.
Where do you think video games come from people? Some adults (maybe even as kids) sitting down and drawing out their ideas. Film and videogames both include a similar process in their development. - PhilH, on 10/12/2007, -1/+12@ scottmoss
http://www.youre.co.uk/ - Arramol, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13Actually I think it was Jack Thompson, trying to sabotage the gaming industry.
- ThinkBox, on 10/12/2007, -0/+11↑ ↑ ↓ ↓ ← → ← → B A
- dggeek, on 10/12/2007, -1/+10Really? Damn. Too bad they removed the Old News option to bury.
- oOLiquidNightOo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+8this game had terrible graphics. which of course, left me feeling pretty conflicted.
- brokentry, on 10/12/2007, -4/+12How about read a book?
- afex, on 10/12/2007, -1/+9don't worry, you could still probably buy the premium package for an extra 100 dollars.
it just comes with more paper. - eulergamma, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8@adleym
You do realize that you are posting on Digg.com? - evilunleashed, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7My friends and I played the same game in grade school, only our version was more mundane. Instead of spaceships they were tanks. I hadn't thought about that in years.
- techlinks, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7Umm, so yeah, please don't ever say 'rents again. Two more damned letters won't kill you.
- scuzzman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7It appears the article's been vandalized...
- Smwbigboss, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7"unless it's a social experience, like D&D"
Dude, I almost passed out laughing. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -4/+10How about you get some friends and play with them instead?
- miggie, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6This is genius! I work in an after-school program with kids that cry if they can't get on a computer. I can now give them something to that the edge off the computer crack. Thank you for posting it! I am serious I am really going to use this at work. :-)
- mecole21, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6I remember drawing new levels for Mario on paper... but that was just drawing them, not actually playing them...
- bede, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9I bet the graphics are still better than the Xbox
- flippinjeremy, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8I could think of other ideas that would be WAY worse/lame to pass time...
I think this is a cool idea :) - flippinjeremy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7@ 022A
agreed. - oOLiquidNightOo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+6@PoVRAZOR
i'm not calling you a liar but with both know there's no way you could have two mighty swords of jake. there's only 2 known in existence and they have opposite polarities. we both know what would happen if those babies were crossed and it wouldn't be pretty.
if you really do have both but you just choose to keep one in your inventory at a time, i'd be interesting in buying one from you. does 34 gobels sound fair? - MrSidnet, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9Someone should port this to the DS. Man, the touch screen for this would be AWESOME
- licoricewhip, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5Looks like a muslim terrorist's battle cry to me.
- zjbird, on 10/12/2007, -0/+5NEW TITLE
"How to remain a virgin for the rest of your life:" - ad0beaddict, on 10/12/2007, -8/+13i know that's retarded you would never loose unless you like rly hate yourself and decide the other guy is like god or something
