Nonsense Gamer: I-Play – The Curse Of An Online Addiction

‘BT wanted to charge £125 just to move my broadband the 2 miles down the road to where I moved.

By today’s exchange rate that comes to just under $190, for those of you who use the wrong currency.

So I told them exactly where to stick it (Using diagrams where appropriate.) and gave up on ever playing online games again.

It’s hard, especially when you play something like Aliens VS Predator, when you know for a fact that you’re missing out on a huge portion of the game.

This week (Thursday to be precise) I’m getting the internet back proper. And I’m ready to kick ass all over again!

It’s not that I’m too competitive. If I lose a game then I just stoke it up to experience. I’m as happy to stand at the back with a Sniper Rifle and just pick people off than I am to rush in on my own trying to boost my score.

I like to play as part of a team.’
