I am not into RPG's at all.. spent enough time watching an ex play them when I was a teenager. It put me off for life!! I'm mainly into driving games like Need For Speed... but I can understand the draw to RFOM. Very addictive game, although I am still totally rubbish at it!!
I also swear at the console !! Especially when playing Tekken 5 with my 15yr old stepson. What I think and what I instinctively say (no swearing around kids!) are different... but the thought is the real emotion.. not the "Oh Fishcake" statement! How can he beat me 18 times in a row and still want to play again ?? Hasn't the feeling of elation at beating an old goth worn off by then!!! He even said he was looking forward to playing all week until saturday when we see him... sounds like he enjoys the prospect of knocking out my dignity and any feeling that I have that I may be OK at that game!
No, I guess he's just from a generation that are naturally better at these things than us old gits
