I am a gamer, I love my xbox 360 and I RP(role play) on a site called the Forgotten Realms. On my xbox I mainly play Halo: Reach, Assassin's Creed (1,2, and Brotherhood), and Modern Warfare 2 (don't have black ops! too much like World at War for me!!!) . On the RP site I have three characters, a Human, Feyborn, and a Drow. If you have ever played D&D than you know what I'm talking about :) I have the site linked on my blog at the top right so if you want to check it out feel free to, oh and if you're into that type of stuff PLEASE JOIN!!! Anyway, on the site you do whats called interactive role playing, its like writting a book with one or more people! It helps develop you're writting skills and its a lot of fun! There are a couple other girls on the site that are active memebers, but not near as many girls as there is guys of course.
As soon as I tell people that I game (people I know in real life) they look at me like there could be no way considering I'm not the normal stereo type of girl to game in the sorts of games I play. Now for the people that I know from online gaming, when I'm on xbox I have my mic on so I can correspond with my teamates so I usually get asked if i'm a 10 year old boy or a girl. If I say I'm a girl then most of the time I get questions like "are you hot?" and I respond with "yes, I'm 450lbs of meaty love" and that turns them away, but thats what gives girl gamers a nerdy rep, because the dumb guys who are on there being rude and nasty! Now dont get me wrong there are some guys out there online who are nice and not nasty.
Here is the link to how most guys are on xbox live. Pre warning there is bad language in this video. This is what pretty much any girl gamer wants to do when you run into a guy like this!

Tell me what you think about Girl Gamers!!
XoXo,
I mostly play God of Ware for Xbox 360. lol. So no comments from me. Although I really wouldnt consider someone who is a girl and played video games a "nerd"
ReplyDeleteyou nerd! jj
ReplyDeleteYeah? Well, I have a World of Warcraft account with two level capped toons. How's that for 'nerd'? Lol, there's nothing wrong with playing video games, for guys or girls. Though, I pretty well accept that as my nerdy side. Playing a video game is viewed negatively, only because of those who are insanely addicted and drop out of school consequently. As long as it's in balance with the rest of your life, it's equivalent to being a book reader or a movie buff in my opinion. As for the "are you hot?" comments, stay away from those guys lol. And awesome response with the "450lbs of meaty love" lol.
ReplyDeleteGotta love WoW!!! I don't have an account but its oh so tempting!
