Subject: I can't believe....

I can't believe I used to play this game so much. I just went on here for the first time in over a year and I just remembered how much I was addicted to this game. I just went on my 360 and I discovered I have 8 different accounts. All have highest skill of 45 or more including to 50s and I have gotten to at least a 45 in every playlist. I used to play with Jester and I played Final Boss and Str8 Rippin several times in MLG. The monstrosity of time I wasted on this has just come to me and quite frankly I am disappointed with myself. I encourage all you other players who play this game more than they should to direct your time into something more constructive and useful and let your Halo 3 come second. Or else you will end up like me. Having wasted your early teens playing a video game.

we know. it's the end story of all addicting video games. still though it's no big deal. just don't waste time deranking or griefing. that's where you will look back and realize it was a waste. getting 50s and playing with pros are not bad memories.

Yeah, I'm sorry to hear you wasted your teenage years playing video games. That's the time in life to do crazy things, but at the same time focusing on school. Once you get older you'll find that playing video games is just a nice cheap fun hobby. Until then, go out there and explore life. Do a keg-stand every once in a while, go to a strip club, have fun with the ladies, .... you know -blam!- like that.

Legends never die.

i wasted my teens doing drugs and getting into trouble with the law only to find out at age 22 that i was an alcoholic and i had to start my life over again

There is no such thing as lost time. We are all on borrowed time anyway and as long as you learn something from your experiences (good or bad) then everything is exactly as it should be.

I think I'm on a road rage...

No offense intended but... stop belly aching and get over it? I mean, wow... you JUST realized how much time you invested into Halo 3? I spent 3 years straight playing Halo 3 six hours a day and every one of those days I woke up knowing I was wasting a HUGE amount of my time. But ultimately over that time I HOPE you made some friends that you think you can keep for awhile like I did. if you got the slightest thing out of playing Halo 3 for so long than that time was ultimately worth it.

You say tomato; I say potato.

Get your -blam!- done, keep doing the hobbies you enjoy, then play Halo in your spare time. Its not that hard, Halo isnt crack Id hate to see some of the people on this forum hooked on drugs they would probably OD lol.

I'm willing to bet that in 10 years time, maybe 5, everyone who looks back on the time they spent playing Halo will regret it.

Time flies when you're having fun. As long as you had fun in H3 it's all okay.


Wrong.

How?



Just because something is fun doesn't mean it's worthwhile. Life isn't always about having fun.

Why are you coming to the h3 forums and trying to propose your opinion about H3 being a big waste of time? If anything you're wasting your life on here writing your silly idea on numerous topics, when to be quite honest, it's their life and they can do anything they want with it. Just because something is worthwhile doesn't mean it gives you a better life...having fun and enjoying yourself is what life is about.

Sigh...

I don't come on here to simply force my beliefs on others. Forums, whether you know this or not, are places where people share their opinions. This topic was about how Halo 3 is a waste of time, so I gave my opinion. I don't care if people agree with it or not, that's what opinions are all about. But you shouldn't have a go at me for it.

Of course posting here is a waste of time, the majority of things people do in their lives aren't worthwhile. You just need to realise what's a waste and what isn't.

Anyway I don't want to get into another debate about life values. You obviously hadn't grasped the concept of internet forums, so hopefully now you have.

Survive until the red dawn rises, when we have spilled the blood of our enemies.

I agree I was the same once. Waking up at 5:00 Just to play Games :(
