We don't always worry too much about it -- for games I'm not so invested in just summarizing is enough -- but he does try to keep it in mind.

I suppose the more general version of that is that he plays games for me to watch while I'm knitting, so I can enjoy the experience of the game while getting my other hobby in too. My sister does him one better, though -- when she visits she plays Lunar and pauses every time someone levels up so I can write down all their stats, and also any other time I want to take a note or transcribe some dialogue. :)
Thats awesome Allun. It must be nice to have a spouse that shares the same interests. My twin has lost interest in gaming so now I'm alone when I play my games. I keep hoping on meeting someone who enjoys playing games but I havn't met her yet. I tried to get Jenner and Kizyr to marry me but they said the didn't have room for a third member of their relationship. :?

To stay on topic, I'm playing Yakuza 4 and just started Legend of Mana on PSN.

This topic has gotten interesting. It's kind of sweet what you all do w/ your gaming partners. The closest experience I share is helping out my hubby when he gets stuck in one of his games like GOW or something minor like that.

Currently playing thru Tales of the Abyss again, heard it's going 3D soon.

I often watch my Boyfriend play games, so far I've watched him go through Fallout 3, Bioshock, Dragon age, Portal 2, and we've gone through Borderlands together. Always helping him when he get stuck lol. I like it because im becoming less and less of a gamer but i still want to know what happens in the games.

Aw, I do that for my wife, too, when it's a game she's interested in, and sometimes read the on-screen text for her (I think the best...or worst...I've ever done was when I played the original Shadow Hearts and read every bit of in-game dialogue (unlike later games in the series, it didn't have spoken text) while doing different voices for the characters. She made me many cups of tea for throat-soothing while I was doing that. :)

My wife doesn't play RPGs, so most of my gaming is by myself, but we do play several Wii games together, such as New Super Mario Bros.

Currently I'm playing the PS1 version of Langrisser IV. For a variety of gameplay reasons, I prefer the Saturn version, but the PS1 version just got a fan translation. It's technically still in beta, but the translators did an excellent job so the only real problems are the occasional typo or formatting error. I'm glad the game got a translation since the story is pretty good (excellent by video game standards) and the only way to play before was either to know Japanese or to play along with a text translation which was posted online, which is obviously less than ideal.

I've also got a couple of PSP games on my backlog which I should get started on soon.

SSSC <3
This is my comfort game, hands down. Whenever life gives me lemons, I throw them away and start playing SSSC instead. :lol:
Always makes me feel sooo much better. <3

I thinks is almost that time for me to play SSSC and EB again.
Currently I've been playing Team Fortress 2, my boyfriend wanted me to play with him and then it became free to play, so i said what the hey and gave it a try and became slightly addicted. But then a few days ago he kept getting mad at me every time I died, because he wanted and uber, and that led to a small fight and I've been discourage to play since.

Bah. I still need to get the last two Poes. Why, yes, I am a touch completist. And annoyed that my memory is failing me. :P

I'm not really playing anything right now, but I have started playing D2 again. It had been so long since I last played it, I figured I would play it for a bit. Not sure how long this will last but I always enjoy D2.

Hooked up the NES and played some Super Mario Bros w/ the hubby today. It's amazing how well it has held up over time, a true classic. Brit what's Catherine about? What type of game is it?

Minecraft. There's a gargantuan labyrinth of tunnels that I'm currently exploring. It connects to abandoned mines in parts. When I'm not looting the mine, I'm building powered rail service across the desert, or building my treasure room made entirely of gold, iron, and lapis lazuli.

Finally finished Ocarina about three weeks ago and started on Master Quest -- but then had to put that and every other part of my life on hold because I BROKE MY ARM. I don't think I've ever been so frustrated in my life. Tons of time to do stuff (when I'm not knocked out on pain meds) because I can't work, and very little I can do because my right arm is totally out of commission. My hand works, but since it's strapped to my waist it's mostly useless.

But I did manage to play Ace Attorney games using the stylus, so I'm now almost done with Miles Edgeworth. After that I may try to find some way of playing Lunar games, though my compulsive note-taking is a problem since I can't type very well right now. I have a TSS save in the last dungeon with two characters at lv 99 and the other three around 92, so maybe I'll finish that levelling, as there isn't a lot of new stuff to write down beyond the stats.

I just completed Silva Saga 2, an SFC game. I've been working with a group on translating it. It's a fun, breezy little game and I hope they finish up the patch soon so more people can enjoy it.
