But the thing is, I don't have any of my systems with me, because 1) my parents wouldn't let me bring the PS2 or the GameCube, 2) my brother and I share them anyway, so even if I was allowed to take them I'd have to get through him first, and 3) I don't have a TV to plug them into anyway.
But lo and behold, I was talking to Anne, and she was like, "I think I might have one of those at home..."
Me: (thinking) how do you have a PS2 and not know it?
But I digress.
So basically she brought her PS2 down over fall break and I nabbed a bunch of games I had, like Kingdom Hearts and the Chronicles of Narnia and stuff.
Of course Anne, being the non-gamer she is, didn't think to grab a memory card, so anytime we want to play anything we have to start over from the very beginning of the game. And she also had to special-order a TV, which should be shipping in... sometime... hopefully...
So we've had to hijack the lobby TV whenever we want to play, but of course we can't play anything fun because we don't have a memory card yet. Meanwhile anyone walking by us hears yells of 'Get that ogre!' and 'Drop the small child and no one gets hurt!'
My favorite has definitely been my name-unknown fellow game nerd, who observed us running around Caer Paravel in the Prince Caspian game and went, 'Um, why are a minotaur and a centaur on the same team? They're supposed to be mortal enemies.'
Whoever you are, dude, I think I love you.
