It seems astounding to me now that the video games are perhaps as important as the movie themselves. And people will spend 2 or 3 years obsessing about the video game in exactly the same way that they'd be obsessing about the movie if they were working on that.

Now, on nights that I can't sleep, I play video games alone until the morning.

I think video games are a great kind of entertainment. They have replaced a lot of games people normally play with their friends and neighbours, like Monopoly.

Video games are engineered now, but the step I am trying to take, no one can engineer.

Flavor Of The Weak (Radio Edit)

She paints her nails
And she don't know he's got her best friend on the phone
She'll wash her hair his dirty clothes are all he gives to her
And he's got posters on the walls
Of all the girls he wished she was
(Bridge)And he means everything to her

(Chorus)Her Boyfriend he don't know anything about her
He's 2-stonned nintendo
I wish that i could her see
She's just the flavor of the weak

It's friday night and she's all alone
He's a million miles away
She's dressed to kill but the TV's on
He's conected to the sound
And he's got pictures on the walls
Of all the girls he's loved before
(Bridge)And he means everything to her

I'm a video game fan. I played them before I became an actress.

In college, before video games, we would amuse ourselves by posing programming exercises.

We cannot and will not ban the creation of violent video games. But, we can prevent the distribution of these disturbing games to children, where their effects can be negative.

Chaotic brain

What am I thinking about?
What's the fucking sound out?
Lift upside down
She is come to pass

Work is hard
Work is not SEGA

'shut up boy! That's a good idear to chock your head! '

Or you shoot my head
Or you give me novocaine
That I can feel better that to breath the stink air

'am I standing right? '

I can't work it out
I can't work it out
Should I work it out?
I can't work it out

Shelf-life for a regular video game usually is about three to five years, and that's it.

Video games are so popular these days, getting the opportunity to star in one is something special. More people should do it.

The tree that knew me.

My tree will know it all
The tree of my childhood
With the endless branches
And the many whispers
Time that it can only measure

My tree remembers
The boy with the wind in his hair
The boy with the crazy laughter
The boy with the fear of living and of lifes unknowns
The boy I used to be

Before the internet or the mac
Playstation Nintendo and games that attack.

My tree remembers me
Clinbing its branches into the sky
Hung on its strong limb
A swing
Of rope and wood.

It is really hard to make it convincing enough that you forget you are playing a video game.

Columbine Cradle

Mommy loses her cool, when I stay home from school.
Don’t point your toy gun at people” is what I hear,
I reply “I have to point my gun at people playing in
this video game, mommy dear”.

From the sounds of this,
it looks like mommy is not sincere.
Why it all starts at home, how we leave are children alone.

Alone to watch violent video games,
and then wonder why they act insane,
if you take away their toy guns that same day.
Now there is kids bringing guns to school,
pretending to shoot them to make themselves look cool.

It seems these children have not developed “empathy”
that they live in a world of “me and me”.
So, they grow up to be teens,
Having seen everything that could possibly be mean.

When I Was Younger

When I was younger…I'd put my arms in my shirt and told people I lost my arms. Would restart the video game whenever I knew I was going to lose. Slept with all the stuffed animals as a child so none of them got offended. Had that one pen with 4 colors, and tried to push all the buttons at once. Poured soda into the cap and acting like I were taking shots. The hardest decision was choosing which Nintendo game to play. Waited behind a door to scare someone, then leaving because they're taking too long to come out or you had to pee. Faked being asleep, so I could be carried to bed. Used to think that the moon followed my car. Watching two drops of rain roll down window and pretending it was a race. Went on the computer just to use Paint. The only 'fake' friends I had were invisible ones. I used to sing in the shower. Swallowed a fruit seed I was scared to death that a tree was going to grow in my tummy. Getting a bruised knees heals better than a broken heart.
Remember when we were kids and couldn't wait to grow up... what the hell were we thinking? A: /

And so the idea was, well maybe you can take an Atari video game machine, where people plug in a game cartridge, and plug in a modem, and tie that into a telephone, and essentially turn that game in the machine into an interactive terminal.
