Most people here talk about how they look for games to trigger certain emotions/ feelings, but how about working out ways to bring these feelings into your real lives? Like photographing the countryside or visiting cathedrals?

I find watching Mega64 does well in bringing these feelings up.


My friends and I used to play Real Life Metal Gear in half-finished construction sites. It was fun to run around and knock on beams then dive into open crates and such.

When I was in elementary school, my friends and I played Mario in the playgrounds. It involved a lot of chasing each other around while one girl (The Princess) sat by herself underneath a slide.

Yes. REAL LIFE KOF.

I can't help but laugh at this while thinking how unfun that must have been for the little girl. They always said videogames were a boys hobby...

Whoa. That doesn't sound like anything to sneeze at.

This, um, actually exists in Russia. My friend has his own team. Though the teams are much larger and it's city against city. At times, though, Moscow or St. Petersburg fights against Ukranian and Belarusian teams, much rarer Moscow will fight a Polish or Romanian team. Once there was even a match between an English team and a Moscow team. Moscow won, to my great happiness.

Here's a video I found

Enjoy!
