KDog35 0 Posted March 9, 2004 I was watching Divorce Court today. This couple was spliting up because the husband played a military war game 8 hours a day. She mentioned it had helicopters and you can take people hostage and things like that. At the end of the show, the judge asked what the game was and He said flashpoint. Pretty hilarious hearing that. BUT, he did mention that he cut his game play down to an hour a day. Just wondering if the same guy will read this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Hitman[SWAF] Posted March 9, 2004 Ah, another addition to my "You know when you have played too much OFP when:" colletion. Â Here's some examples: Quote[/b] ]- you walk through a park and use EVERY bush on your way as cover.- you drive with friends to a party and insist that the headlights need to stay off. - you walk through the city centre and look for a good sniping spot. - you see a flag pole and desperatly have the urge to go to it and take the flag. - you DO get the flag down from the pole and start running, while suddenly stopping and wondering why there is no message saying "xxxx took the flag" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How about a warning on the  next game packaging something like they put on fag packets!!!  Lol, I can see the warning pictures now. A couple having sex in a red circle with a slash through it. I have managed to avoid divorce by waiting for my wife to go to sleep before cranking up OFP. Then I read the forums at work. I get very little sleep during the week then catch up in the weekend.

BraTTy 0 Posted March 10, 2004 LOL , my wife tells me to play.Maybe I will get divorced because 'he didn't use the computer enough" My son is 15, he just ditched his girlfriend because when she came over he couldn't use the computer,lol Its a hard choice whether your girlfriend should be into computers or not if your a "puter addict" He thought having one that doesn't would work, lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
