Top 6 is updated every month. Top 6 "Macho-Geek" pastimes |
(6.) Paintball: Yes I know some of you would argue
with me about this, but what else is there to do when you can't play Quake?
(5.) Tech Fighting: How many guys sit around talking about how pansy your system is, or how your mac makes you unmanly? (you know it does, you sissy) (4.) Linux Installing: This is the new version of the Pow-Wow, a group of geeks get together to drink beer, curse and have a good time. and yet there is no organized sport involved, just several computers getting that nasty windows problem taken care of, For Good! (3.) Blow Things Up: You know what I mean, so i don't have to go into it. (2.) Y2K Preparation: Macho-Geeks have recently picked up on this, (somewhere around 1985) and love to compare and make fun of those who are i'll prepared, even if they know that it's not really worth it. (1.) Two words..... Death Match |
Death Match:
Death matches first started with the advent of Doom, the most advanced multiplayer game of it's time. You could play over a serial connection with your friends and kill each other all night. This eventually got better with the ability to look up and down (duh) with Duke Nukem and Dark Forces. These early games were great and provided thousands of hours of enjoyment, but it would soon all change. Quake: gave us 3D gaming that looked good and played good, Quake2: gave us actual high quality internet gaming, other titles followed like Unreal which was super sweet. Now that The online deathmatch is here to stay, all i can say is..... MUCH HAIL |
