Phantasy Star Online

The most recent addition to a Sega game series known as Phantasy Star. Many uninformed Sega fans claim that this game "revolutionized" online gaming but they would be wrong as it was neither the first online game nor the first online RPG. Its impossible to ignore the fact that online gaming was popular on the PC years before the Dreamcast was ever invented.
Its impossible to have revolutionized anything by doing the same thing someone else already did years before you. Its even more impossible when they did it even better.

asherons call

An excellent MMORPG developed by Turbine and Published by Microsoft.

When it was first released the game was moderately popular for many years and was of much greater quality than Evercamp. It had many brilliant and innovative ideas such as the Allegance System and the Updates which added new content to the game every month. However, the updates were eventually the death of the game as the morons added so many high level creatures to the game that it became to dangerous to walk five feet out of any town unless you were over level 100. What were they thinking?

The Sequel to this game was extremely similir to the original game except that it had slightly better graphics and all the good features were removed. In other words the sequel sucked. Hopefully if there is ever a another sequel to this wonderful game then the developers will have the sense to bring back the original Character system, magic and other excellent features from the original that the last game lacked.
Asherons call is the best MMORPG I have ever played. Although if I had spent a few more weeks with Anarchy Online I might have changed my mind.

postal

Postal has a number of uses. Normally just used as slang for "gone crazy" or can actually mean the act of going on a shooting spree. The term started after several postal employees went on shooting sprees.

Years after the term was no longer popular a company called "Running with scissors" made an EXTREMELY AWFUL pc game called "postal" which simply featured level after level of badly simpulated shooting sprees across a number of venues such as marching bands, gas stations, military bases, etc... Despite the fact that, had things been left well enough alone, nobody would have ever known this game existed a numvber of events happened to make this game 10 times more popular(but no less awful). First the U.S. Postal Service tried to sue the company over use of the name and failed quite horribly when it was proven that nowhere in the game was there even so much as a single refrence to any actual postal workers. Later, after the coulmbine shootings, Senator Liberman and a group of lazy parents tried to blame increased violence among children on the Video Game industry and Postal got even more free publicity when it was used as an example of violence in games.

What the US Postal Service, Senator Liberman and the fat lazy parents who hate video games failed to realise that their efforts only served to make Postal 10 times as popular as it otherwise ever would have been and nobody who ever actually played the game enjoyed it or tried to emulate it in any way.
Today video games are 10 times as violent and real than Postal ever was and gamers all over the earth hate Senator Liberman. However, anyone who claims to have seen me hanging around outside his house planning to go postal on his ass is nothing but a filthy rotten liar!

Sega Slayer: Luke?
Sega Slayer: (five Minutes Later) Luke you there? What the fuck!?

Log N' Hide

Similar in concept to the Shout N' Run but in this case the person logs on and right away procededs to ignore any incoming messages to turn on their away message and dissapear into the void.
Phylor 12: *logs on*
Sega Slayer: Hey, Phylor! I have to tell you something important! Its a good thing you signed on!
Auto Reply from Phylor 12: I'm away from my computer right now...
Sega Slayer: WHAT!? No you aren't! You just signed on! I know you have to be there to sign on!
Sega Slayer: Phylor! I'm not fucking stupid! Do you really think I'm falling for this!?
Phylor 12: (three days later) Oh, hi...

deadly

Describes something that has the power to make you dead.
It was a deadly mistake for Dan to go bowling that day. The mysterious guy who hates bowling killed him.

Sega made a deadly mistake with the Sega saturn. It died and was unpopular.

The venom of that snake is quite deadly.

Gamer

The term "Gamer" by itself can apply to nearly anyone who plays video games on a regular basis or even once in a long while. However, even among gamers and the definitions on this site there is a large amount of debate about who and what gamers exactly are. The best way to define the term "gamer" is not to define it at all but accept that there are in fact many types of gamers out there and there is no blanket term that can cover them all.

Casual gamers are the people who mostly own console systems and buy mostly sports and racing games. They don't like fantasy games and only enjoy sci-fi games based on movies they may have seen. This group, unfortunatly, makes up the bulk of the gaming community and the current popularity of shitty games on shitty console systems is evidence of this. Casual Gamers think that having a "life" consists entirely of getting laid and drunk on a regular basis and have very little interest in games outside of a way to pass the time without spending alot of money.

The group of people who call themselves Hardcore gamers aren't often quite as "hardcore" about gaming as they would like to think. These are the people you see complaining that games now come in fancy modes like "3D" and debating the finer points of why Final Fantasy 6 was better than Final Fantasy 7. The only people who might actually be hardcore are the people who sit an camp the firegiant hideout in evercamp for 72 hours at a time just to get some item that will help them camp better. I wouldn't rate either side of this coin as being a very pretty sight.

Finally there are the true gamers who actually treat gaming as a real HOBBY and not just a way to pass time or something to try and collect hundred upon thousands of. True Gamers just try to find an enjoy the best games out there and don't like getting ripped off because Casual gamers are pushing the industry towards a point where the only games that will be profitable are Madden and GTA. True Gamers often own high quality PC's and play PC games most often. Despite what most people might think a PC isn't hard to operate and doesn't cost too much. The people who say PC's are too expensive are often spending hundreds of dollars on console systems that can't do even half as many things as a PC can do and to make matters worse they own more than one of these stone age devices.
True Gamers: Don't pay attention to the poseurs and bums out there who just play Madden or are too busy talking about Final Fantasy 6 to play anything at all. Just continue to buy good games from good companies so our little corner of the gaming community doesn't end up with an "Out of bussiness" sign hanging on the door.
