Any plans for Simon in the future of gaming?

Who knows? As a parent I guess we try to expose our kids to as many positive things as we can, and hope that something takes hold of their heart. Between gaming, piano, flag football, theater, bike riding, rockets, robots, and general mayhem with his friends, it's possible he might focus on gaming.

But...in the meantime...Simon got a Frag on Fatal1ty! Woot! Woot! Woot!

Rockets as in model rockets that you shoot into the sky? Cause I used to be "in" to those for a while, they can be a lot of fun, and they aren't "that" expensive...
 
lol yall spend the majority of your day playing computer games or on the internet? damn i guess noone has any "real" friends anymore

Who's to say you don't play them with your "real" friends.....

i was only there on sunday, the last day of WCG, and i found it to be pretty dead. i guess gaming hasn't taken ahold of the US market the way it has in japan and korea.

And the research that I have found shows that johnathan wendel(or whatever) charges the media for interviews ect. So obviously whatever front he put on during the LAN is not what he truely thinks of himself. Did you not catch the documentary on MTV? He came off more arrogant than any real professional sports star.

I went to prom. I wrestled, played lacrosse, and football in hs. I work out twice a day, and have a girlfriend. I go to parties during weekends (and weekdays too though I shouldn't :D ). I also get straight A's at BU. I built my first computer when I was 11, I program C++, and play a lot of videogames (btw, CS: Source is awseome).

To sum it up, shove your stereotypes up your bum :). They don't mean anything.
 
what game was this in again?
ut2004?
i saw the whole mtv and espn special on this kid and everything!
you telling me he only died twice in 4 days of gaming against contestants?
what a geek
 
Man this brings back memories of playing Carmack himself when doom2 came out.

I believe the score was 50-12 (he won)

Too bad i wasnt still that good or had time like that to keep playing :(

Wow if you claim to be as intelligent as you say so you must know the definition of a stereotype is A conventional, formulaic, and oversimplified conception, opinion, or image. If one person varies from the norm does not mean that it is not a valid stereotype.

And no CS: Source is a rip.

I personaly dont like the way he plays. He bogarts the health and armor and when he takes a hit he runs away to get more. I would like to play him in a game with no health and no armor, I dont think he would do as good. He personaly does not have that great of aim, and uses his 150 armor and 150 health to keep him alive during a shoot out. I say he plays like a coward, and that is why nobody can kill him. Hard to kill what runs away. As for a person, dont know never talked to him (as none of you realy have either) so we realy cant say what type of person he is.

As for gaming, games have actualy increased hand eye cordnation as well has increase the analitical, problem solving skills. Games do improve quite alot and are good for kids to play, when played in moderation.

This may be true but we all have our quirks online.

I happen to be a camper. I'll find a spot that is well hidden and snipe until I'm found and killed. Then I'll move onto the next camping spot and do the same thing. When I was playing DoD I always chose either the Allies and picked the .30 cal or the Axis and chose the MG42 or 34; I was more fond of the 42 however. There were certain maps I'd dominate on and others I couldn't even touch because my camping tactics would work really well on some and not at all or very poorly in others.

I was banned several times for camping on one map because I always took refuge in a bell tower and positioned myself so that I could see the entire map and have free rain of it with the MG42 but I was physically impossible to hit, unless someone got behind me or managed to find a way out of their spawn area without me seeing them and managing to get itno some bushes that were to the far side of the map. Where they would wait for me to open fire so that they could see just the tip of my head.

So raggin on Jonathan just because he bogarts and hoardes the health and armor doesn't make him a bad gamer it just means he's found something that works for him.


Speaking of DoD I'm gonna get back into that.

Did you come into these forums just to insult people about being on the internet? Because if I'm not mistaken, you were probably online in order to make those last two posts. I am also probably not mistaken when I say that 99% of the people on these forums have a pretty active social life. Myself included.

lmao. some people's kids I tell ya. He must think I'm the one who pissed in his cheerios this morning. And if he wants to make this a pissing contest....I'll piss all over him. ;)
 
I love the irony of people coming onto tech-oriented forums with the intent to stick their virtual nose up in the air at others just doing things they enjoy. Yippie-ka-ya for those of us who can actually balance a social life with our geeky habits.

Really isn't that difficult, guys. I raised hell for about 25 years...now I have a wife, a baby girl, and maintain ties with all of my good friends from back in the day. Forgive me for not crying into my beer when some unwashed kid whose social life involves smelling the print in the latest Hustler mag thinks that enjoying a few pc games and being impressed by a talented player automatically means you're a shut-in.
 
I guess some people are in disbelief that we can actually have a "real" life and still be gamers. Whodathunkit. :rolleyes:
 
ive lost the attention span to play video games...

i cant do it for more than an hour a day anymore... its so sad.

doom 3 lasted me about 4 - 6 hours , over 3 or 4 days i think.


unless its multiplayer i just cant do it .

What is unclear about this being a gaming forum? If you do not like gaming WTF are you even doing here? Oh that's right, it's okay for you to waste your life and ruin your eyesight posting, but let someone play a game and they're an idiot. JESUS!

How's a guy not supposed to take an insult, whether verbal or otherwise, personally? Internet forums give us another way of communication, but like with all other forms of communication, there is still something called "respect" and "decorum", something that lacks severely in forums where insults are handed out like candy.

Otherwise, if you can't find it in yourself to post respectfully (even in jest), I'm sure there are other forums (like the myg0t forums) where your comments would be more welcome. As it stands, your comments are not amusing to anyone but yourself.

In short: get to know people first before you start handing out insults.

Yes humm hooo the outside world, The place a "kid" like me wastes my life away and ruins my vision. Christ why are people like you still around, I thought the dinosaurs died years ago. You can take your outside world and shove it up your ass. Ive been working since 13 and im barely 17 right now. I STILL goto school, Manage my 3rd part time job, Manage my home and social life and still find time to game. Seriously i'm gonna stop working so ass holes like you can't clame welfare.

But besides the outside world is where rape/muggings/abductions/shootings/theft happen, Who would want to go out there?

I dont know where to stick the cork in you, Your ass or mouth because shit is comming out of both.

:mad:
 
ive fragged fatality once, in ut2003.

if you need proof i could give you a demo of it, or reinstall ut2003 and make a movie of it but thats alot of work.
 
First time for me to read this thread, now that its like 4 pages long, how did it go from a nice topic of "my son got a kill and won some stuff" to ignorant flame wars. :rolleyes:

Anyways, I'm glad your kid won something. Last time I went to a tournament for gaming, my team came in 2'nd place and got jack.

As for the hi-jacking topic, I think what ever you have to do to win, do it (as long as its not cheating :p ) If camping works best for you, great! Not everyone has the patience to camp, others like to rambo, and by going rambo in games like D3 or Q3 (unless your playing rocket arena ;) ) picking up life helps you make sure to stay alive. Its like saying picking up extra ammo is cheap, you do what you have to to win. Personally, I play in what ever way that counters how someone else plays, I'll rambo it till I know how they play, then turn it into a strategic camping (not just sit in one place for 5 min).

Ok ok, back to CS:S :D
 
I saw the fatality shootout at QC 2004, and afterwards we were talking to some guys in the hotel hallway that strongly asserted that fatal1ty was an arrogant asshole. i don't know, but I thought it was funny......

I was on the varsity baseball team in a 2600 student school 3 years before I was suppoised to be. My girlfriend is one of the hottest girls in the school according to popular opinion and 2 years older than me, and I'm on pace to go to more than one prom. I go out every weekend. I work out every day and run two miles after I work out. I jus ran a 5:35 mile. I can pitch mid 70's with a nasty curveball and changeup, and last start struck out 14 out or 15 batters I faced. And I had a 3.0C machine watercooled running @ 4ghz with a vmodded and wc'ed 9700 pro @ 425/360 stable with 1GB mushkin pc3500 lvl2 black @ 534mhz 2-2-2-5 with 3.8v on a droop and vdimm modded p4c800-e deluxe, which is more than you've probably done. I also get A's and B's.

That's two. And I'm willing to bet there's a LOT more people on here who aren't your stereotypical geeks.
 
These are from last weekend. Poor quality, but you get the idea.

Simon was a little overwhelmed.-Texxxxx
 
Not to knock your son, Im sure hes a fine gamer. But dont you think he let his guard down and was just toying with him?
 
It is possible that Simon let his guard down and was just toying with Fatal1ty. Ha Ha...But seriously...Yes, that's entirely possible. Still cool, though.

Uhh....what game have they played at CPL that doesnt have health and armor....

Roller Coaster Tycoon?

Don't knock the guy for playin the game the way it was meant to be played. They dont stick health and armor in levels just for the pretty boxes....never underestimate the power of going into a fight with slightly higher h/a than the other guy.

Texxx, congrats to your son. He deserves a 6800 GT OC now :-D

Why is it that people like this remain unbanned.... :confused: and....other people recieve the hammer...
 
Too bad D3 is such a horrible game, especially multiplayer. Tell your son to take his talents to something with more staying power; a shame to waste it on that.

Last I checked CS (you know that game that is played at the CPL) doesnt have powerups in it (and no picking up dead guys armour does not count). So before you want to argue a point mabey you should check out the games you are trying to back.
