I have a son that takes GWX to sea.

He won't play the next version out....because there's no spy sat

The lazy bugga doesn't like taxing his mind

The wife stopped complaining at me about computer games after we spent a christmas at home with her sick. I was playing Civilization III at the time and she wanted to sit with me cause she felt miserable, so I started a two player game, set it on easy, and taught her to play. She's been hooked ever since. I next moved her on to playing WOW and she is currently an AH mogul.

Sub games? I don't know if I'll ever get her to try those, but I've won the war. She doesn't complain about the time I spend playing, and is usually sitting at the computer next to mine playing Civ III or WOW.

Now that is familiar, my wife says those very words to the kids, and a few more to me when they've gone to bed!

I did try to explain it once to a friend who only plays racing games, he had interest for about 3 days. I also tried to explain it to a friend who only plays sports and WWF/WWE games, that lasted about 3 seconds

Civ III and Civ IV rock. I sure got my money's worth out of that series.

Other than SH3, the CIV games are one of the few games I can finish and immediately start another game.

Hah, I have this 5-years old brother who always comes to watch when I play.

But he's not cute like yours, not at all.
He asks a lot of questions, and I mean a lot.

Even after explaining everything possible to him, he still asks similiar:

"Why is your boats colour grey?"
"Why is that ship sinking?"
"Why that gun is shooting you?"
"Why don't you sink that ship?"
"Why that man has that kind of shoe on his foot?"
Etc...etc...

God he's annoying. I usually don't let him watch what I play.

PS. And call me mean and I'm going to showe your shoe up your ass.

My son will be 3 in June and is what my wife and I call "scary-smart", as he has been talking for well over a year and speaks in full sentences and asks questions like crazy. He likes to ask me to sit and play "mcqeen racing" on the "puter", which is a CARS movie game i bought for him.

So for now that is all he is interested in, but it is a start, and soon i hope to have him playing some SH3 or sitting on my lap while i fly a sortie in Falcon4.

Either way.. the wife doesn't complain and knows he just wants to be like his daddy.

Tool.
