- Dumb things your parents have said/done with video games

What's funny is that your mom even paid attention to graphics in games (or pretended like she did. It sounds more like she just didn't want to spend money on buying the games and just threw any excuse out there).
Mine never really did or said anything dumb with games. My dad actually played CoD pretty regularly a few years back (mostly COD4) |

Literally everything is a Nintendo.

My mom hates playing games, but one time my cousin insisted on playing with her. So she was just mindlessly pressing random buttons, and ended up defeating him flawlessly, and even counter attacking his attacks as he got close. He got mad and I was laughing, but she didn't even realize the match was over because she wasn't even looking at the screen.
What did the pirate say on his 80th birthday?
Aye Matey! |

I remember my dad wouldn't let my little brother get Halo 3 because it was rated M but allowed him to get Halo Wars instead because it was rated T. So my little brother was stuck playing Halo Wars when he really wanted to be playing Halo 3, but Halo Wars was as close as he could get.
I may not go down in history, but I will go down on your sister.

I didn't live with them, but I facepalmed so hard when I heard about this.

My mom refused to buy me Legend Of Zelda Classic NES series on GBA for my birthday because "the graphics are bad" she took one look at the back of the box and refused to buy it. That was a smart thing. Those NES Classic games were rip offs.

Literally everything is a Nintendo. It was this for a long time, but I corrected them to a point where everything was playstation. |

My dad often said that if I wanted to get something that he and my mom both said they didn't want me to have, I'd have to beat him in Tekken or Gears of War.
Looking back on that, those were the only games he was and still is better then me at.
Ignore when people say that the title length is not important, that a title should just convey what the game is about. They're just jealous theirs isn't as long

Are you sure she actually hates them and doesn't just train really hard when you're not around so she can know what's going on just by sound? |

My parents refused to buy me a Zelda game for GBA because there was a sword on the cover

Man, I'm glad my parents didn't give a f*** what I was playing growing up.
s***, my mom bought me GTA III on release when I was like 12. Hell, they were letting me play Mortal Kombat when I was like 3.

"just pause it" when playing online. This, but after a few months of mostly playing online games they understood. "I'm playing with a dozen other people. Can't pause it for everyone, that wouldn't be cool." explained it pretty well. Then it became "Do X when your match is over." They were pretty understanding and often watched me play. I remember I got all A's in like 4th or 5th grade and my parents bought me DMC3 for doing so. Best good grades gift ever. Of all time.

Man, I'm glad my parents didn't give a f*** what I was playing growing up. I remember my mom trying to tell me how to input a fatality when I was 4-5. Then she didn't let me watch power rangers because it was "too violent".
So I stabbed him and took his humanity.

I remember when I was like 5 or 6 some kid thought it was amazing that my parents let me play Mortal Kombat, he told his mom, she got pissed and like called my mom up to b**** at her and my mom literally called her an idiot because Mortal Kombat was cartoony.
Like she thought it was a joke because the fatalities were so unrealistic and cartoony. It might have also been because I was playing the Super Nintendo version but I really don't think the blood would have deterred her much since she was letting me watch s*** like Terminator and Predator at that age.

my dad never really did anything stupid. my mom was super good with video games, to the point where she could go to blockbuster and pick out a game she knew i would like. one time when i was like 6 we played streets of rage together and got to the end. during the dialog part with the last boss i kept scrolling through it and she kept telling me to slow down and read the text. he sent us back to level 6 because i wasn't reading. i rage quit after that but it was pretty cool otherwise. happy mother's day, mom~
yeah yeah those punks are tough

One day I came home from school and my mom asked if I had "grand auto theft" (Vice City) and I answered yes, and then asked why she wanted to know. The news channels had been broadcasting reports about the violence and killing hookers thing.
She was on the phone and I just started playing it in front of her and she didn't really do / say anything about it afterwards so I don't know why she even asked. |

The news channels had been broadcasting reports about the violence and killing hookers thing. I was playing GTA IV one time and my mom walked in to tell me something, and as I was mindlessely playing as she was telling me a story I ran over a pedestrian and my mom started laughing hysterically. She was like "you hit that guy!" So I started running over more people and my mom just kept laughing with each person I hit. |

I don't remember Halo being that violent but I only played the first 2. 1-3 were rated M because supposedly the Flood were gruesome enough to warrant that rating. Which, IMO, they weren't. It was mostly just a technicality because you could "dismember" them. ODST, Reach, and 4 were rated M despite not featuring the Flood. 5 got the T rating after removing human blood splatter (and human blood altogether in multiplayer), which was apparently what kept previous games at an M. Pretty ridiculous considering all the T rated shooters of the past featuring human blood. I guess you can show blood coming out but not having it splatter on the ground as a decal, and supposedly a newer rule is that you can't have multiplayer games in which you cause bloody injuries of any kind to other players without being M.

My mom banned me from Tony Hawk's American Wasteland when I was younger because I was beatin' the crap out of a pole with my board. She also didn't like the graffiti.
My mom completely refused to let me do any sort of online gaming/use the Internet. Just because it's ¨creepy¨. Or just cause... -_- As a homeschooled kid who doesn't hang out with anyone outside my family, I gamed online anyway. Met some pretty cool people too. I can, finally, play M games without having to look over my shoulder, so free access to online is coming next year (18). XD I mean, I love her and she's an awesome mom, but... damn... lol Also, a few years back my grandma got me a mousepad for Christmas. I play on 360. Oh! And my mom and dad keep calling me and brother's 2DS a Nintendo... It's not the NES/SNES/N64 days! That just doesn't work! XD
I've been called the Hero of Kvatch, Chosen Undead, Bearer of the Curse, Dragonborn, Courier 6, and the Arisen. But just call me Brelen.

One of my favorite memories with my aunt is when my cousins and I were playing SSBM. She saw me fighting Bowser and gave me the advice: "Watch out for his spikes, they're very sharp." My cousins and I cracked up. I think she was at least kinda joking when she said it, but her commitment to the bit was fantastic.
I'm sorry, but 10,000 of ANYTHING on a PS2 would absolutely destroy your framerate. It'd be like playing chess through the mail. ~johnboy1
