2-3 Months Can Feel Like 2-3 Years

Just don't think about the wait.

 

It's like how I'm about to give up smoking, all I have to do is not think about it and I'll be fine. I won't feel the need to smoke and you won't feel the need to play. smile.gif

It does feel like a long time, but for some reason time flies for me. Maybe because I'm always busy all the time with school and work and all. When it's not that I usually just replay some old games. I'll probably replay all GTAs again and Super Smash Bros. Melee until Brawl's and GTA IV's release. cool.gif

Some may consider 2-3 Months [March or April] a long, long wait, which infact is quite understandable when you're waiting for one of the world's biggest games, even after a delay, some like me, especially that have been waiting for atleast 2 years now. I don't know if you feel the same on how it may seem like forever, but what's a good way to make the time pass much faster? For example, what games do you recommend to play that will keep you busy, or what activities or things you can stop doing to make it go faster? I have been playing COD 4, Assassin's Creed, and The Orange Box. So far, I still can't stop wanting some new GTA info and most of the time there is none and it just makes the wait seem a whole lot longer. So like I said, what's a good method of making 2-3 months fly?

 

Best answer gets a cookie  cookie.gif  wink.gif  THANK YOU!

 

Note: I own an Xbox 360, not a PS3.

The games you could play are COD 4, Halo 3, etc..

Or better yet, instead of playing games how about you:

Workout

Get a Girlfriend

A job

 

Basically just get a life

COD4 all the wayy!!! except, not for computer.... For the 360!!!

 

I was lvl 55 for like two weeks saying... I'm not going to Presitge! i'm not going to presitge..2 days ago, i prestiged =/... After that, i played a team death match in showdown, and i leveled up 5 lvls, i was cracking up... a few guns that i use now that i haven't noticed in the past.... mainly the m16.. if you have the right perks to make the bullets stronger, thats the gun to go!

 

a good gun with the right perks for shipment or something small like wetwork or something, is the mp5. Awsome!

 

The first Sniper that you get is actually becoming my favorite! i also still pick up the .50 Cal sometimes biggrin.gif

 

Ohkay sorry! back on topic...play other games, i mean i preordered mine, look at it like this...when the game DOES indeed come out, you will be one of the first to have it...there will be many more people that want it more than you do that won't get it b/c

1. there poor and can't afford a pre-order

2. Lazy Ba$tards...

3.Mentally challanged..

 

Well i'm not one of those ppl cause i preordered mine, so the only possible way that your not going to get your game, is if you get jumped while leaving the building... HAHA that would be hilarious... being all happy to play the game when you get home and boom! 4 brotha's pimp slap you and take yo game. rofl lol.gif

 

EDIT: I meant to say: There will be many other people that haven't preordered it unlike you. and us that have. and propably will have to wait longer since the games will sell out pretttty quickly...

Same thing happened with me. Time moved slow. So I decided to put myself through intense training to get my mind of it. Days go by pretty fast when your feeling exhausted and tired half the time. Ive lost alot of weight since the delay lol I guess the delay was a good thing for me cool.gif You should do the same thing chico, you would laugh your ass off at how fast time moves.

Waiting is made easier by my crappy job. Eight hours a day. Come rain or shine I still have to slog on. That puts things in perspective. So why not get a minimum wage job like me and you'll have a bit of money to your name. Enough to buy coffee or a table or a football or whatever takes your fancy? Me? Course in website design. Set yourself goals! Don't waste your life waiting on a game.

I've created a website, and make some money, I made it two years ago. It's great but doesnt't seem to help too much, but it does!

I was personally only hyped up for Halo 3 just about 2 weeks before it was released (and thankfully) 'cause it turned out to be pretty dull.

 

And yes, can't wait for GTA IV, but up to it, I'm not going to "waste" my time towards the release or occupy myself with needless activities but just get on normally.

Just get a job or something lol. Continue with your normal life. Hopefully your life doesn't revolve around a video game if so thats pretty sad. Not tryna be mean. Im not going to say something like "Go have sex" sometimes thats not the best advice. Im mean just live dude!! GTA IV will be here very very soon.

It may feel longer due to the fact that we don't know when it's going to be released. It leaves a kind of hazy aftertaste perhaps.

To be honest, I have so many video games I have yet to even try. Put that with my job & my active social life, & I may be too busy to even pick up the game on it's release date in March of 2009.

Burnout Paradise- Jan 22. Get that.

Yeah I was thinking about is, but it doesn't have Crash mode, I also am thinking about getting Battlefield Bad Company in March, the 24th i think.
