to be annoyed with, and not understand man's obsession with Call of Duty Black Ops?

Well, am I? I think it's the biggest load of pants I have ever seen.

The article in the latest OPSM for Skyrim looks amazing. Damn these highly immersive games - take up too much of my life but do love 'em!

I wish there was a new tombraider. I finally have a super hd tv and we play plants vs. Zombies! What a waste.

DH more of an Assassins Creed type.

Morloth - should be a new Tomb Raider game coming out this year - looks pretty good too.

Neggy my son uses the main TV.

ugh dp is playing blacks ops as i type,makes me feel sea sick lol!

me tho im a sims fan :)

"Neggy my son uses the main TV."

Good. The best place for a child to play, in clear view. I was thinking of adults having their own screen.

sorry assuming your son is a child.

never got into and of the COD/MW jokes but FIFA is the way forward.

DH is playing it now with his "clan", should be up shortly with my cup of tea though

Oblivion was pants, sorry but after Morrowind it was a huge disappointment.

TeaOneSugar, I had to wait 10 minutes for a cup of tea because DH had just started a game. 10 minutes! I should think my need for tea is more important then his need to virtually shoot other people.

DH and I came to an understanding a while back about this. He is allowed to play CoD on our 48" plasma late at night post-dinner at minimal volume. As long as he comes to bed by a decent time (early start for his job). He needs to de-stress and I need to get to bed early (heavily pregnant).

Besides I was once addicted to Tomb Raider and Half-Life. And indulging him in this makes him very happy, making shopping for indulgent gifts for myself much less contentious...

We're both almost 40!

im a sims addict. before that black and white. i love the escapism!

YABU I am a woman and totally obsessed with CoD, although Modern Warfare 2 is much better than Black Ops

YankNCock, does your DH work away a lot? Only he sounds a lot like my DH, who works away a lot...

Speaking as a bloke, I understand why us men like to play COD. It fulfills our fantasies that had we not have met you and decided to live in marital bliss, we'd actually be a one man wrecking machine who's name would make John Rambo quake in fear.

Personally I don't get Corrie & Eastenders. I mean after 5 mins I want to literally poke my own eyes out with a spoon to make the pain stop.

Nope, he's here most every night, only the very occasional business trip.

Now if you told me your DH played blues ukulele too, I'd really start to get paranoid.

YANBU it's very odd....thank god DP not into computer games

I used to feel the same then I started to Play Black ops a little bit. I found it incredibly addictive even thought I'm crap at it.

Malificence, I'm a Tomb Raider girl as well :D

Blimey Yankn, I think I'd sooner he was living a secret double life than subjecting me to (shudder) blues ukulele
