Marathon games
February 14, 2013 at 11:20 pm
Anyone here ever marathon a game or a series with a group of friends?
Personally I've done Gears of War 1, 2 and 3 on insane and Tales of Symphonia. We were think of doing another one pretty soon so if you guys have any good ideas i'd love to hear them!

Used to do it all the time. Only stopped a couple of years ago. Pretty much every new release we would buy up 2/3 copies and a friend of mine, his brother, his nephew and I would all set up our consoles and play until we had beat the game.

Years ago my friend and I would regularly spend whole weekends doing practically nothing else but play games from start to finish. Too many to remember properly but we definitely went through Ocarina of Time, Majora's Mask and GoldenEye (managing to beat it on every difficulty level). In fact, I got so good at GoldenEye that, on our one free visit to a newly opened LAN gaming centre playing Counter Strike with something like a dozen players, I had a rare old time running around picking off the other team with headshots. I'm going to have to do that stuff again I think.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
