\nthe other day, after a couple of long sessions of
\nAggressive Inline<\/a>
\nfor the
\nXbox<\/a>.
\nYes, a conversation
\nwith my wife<\/i>.<\/p>\n
\ninline skating lingo, we were discussing some features of the
\nroadside as if we were still performing impossible stunts
\non our pretty black box of gaming, not driving along to our
\ndestination<\/a>.<\/p>\n
\ngenre, one that includes such great games as
\nTony Hawk<\/a>
\nand
\nSSX Tricky<\/a>.
\nBasically, you have a huge assortment of tricks that you can perform,
\nsome realistic and some not so realistic. A game level consists
\nof a single, often quite large, environment for you to explore as you
\nsee fit. Each level comes fashionably with a set of objectives, often aquired
\nfrom various in-game characters littered across the landscape, and your
\njob is to go about accomplishing them.<\/p>\n
\nsome way – for example, at one point you sink a cruise ship, providing
\na whole new area to explore. Accomplish another and an entirely new
\nlevel may be unlocked. It quickly becomes a twisted game of trial
\nand reward. Think of a donkey chasing the carrot on
\na stick and you’ll have a good sense of what this game
\ncan do to a person or, in our case, the both of us.<\/p>\n
\nDon’t get me wrong. I love the fact that she wants to play.
\nI suppose some part of me is happy that her experience
\nwith Aggressive Inline and its spiritual predecessor, Tony
\nHawk, has given her a taste of my hobby and a taste of why
\nI play games in the first place. However, the fact that
\nshe does play has provided extra incentive to continue
\nmy habit. It is sweet that we can share some quality
\ngaming time together but, in reality, it is more like
\none addict trying to help another.<\/p>\n
\nworld with the fancy antics of the video world.
\n(Hmm, anyone interested in building my neighborhood
\nwith its in-game editor? I’d love to grind my neighbor’s car.) I
\njust hope this doesn’t happen when I begin to play the
\nnew
\nSuper Mario<\/a>
\ngame. Lord knows where I may stick my butt.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
