Christ Centered Gamer

Yeah, I liked it. Built a boxer/wrestler who looked a little like me, but with a massively ripped out body. There's a certain satisfactions when I go for the knockout or a little ground and pound.

Seriously, though, my guy had some major stand up game.

Same with my werewolf build. Horrible on the ground though.

Trip, you have it on the PS3, right? Lemme know if you wanna have a go sometime, I'll dig it up.

Yeah, that's why I put a lot of points into Takedown Defense, too.

I downloaded King of Fighters XIII on PS3. No upskirt views it seems. Mai's clothes are still a problem, though. I also have Sonic the Fighters and Scott Pilgrim VS The World is pretty good, too. Bouncing chests is the only problem. That and one the bosses has a bad past with Ramona Flowers.

I do, but unfortunately with the way that my college's wireless is set up, I haven't been able to connect my PS3 to the internet yet, and I'm not sure that I'll be able to. But maybe by the time I can get it connected I'll be good enough to play you

That sounds pretty fun though.

So does anybody know any other games?

Paper Mario games

I'm going to be careful about how I say this, so if I'm crossing a line here, feel free to call me out on it, ignore me, or ask a mod to delete my post. Let me say in advance that I mean no offense to you (the OP), your mother, or your personal beliefs, nor am I trying to convince you or anyone else to abandon said beliefs.

I may be a heathen now, but I grew up as a Christian, and when I say Christian, I mean I believed it hook, line, and sinker until I was in my early 20's, and even when I started having doubts I still believed the basics until I was about 26-ish, and even then it was a while before what little faith I had left gave up the ghost. One thing that was drilled into me growing up in church was that lust--in any amount--was horrible and would maim you for life if you gave in to it. And I'll just come out and say it--we are talking about masturbation here, right? Refraining from masturbation is fine and good if that's where your convictions lie, but beating yourself up with guilt for doing it can do a lot of damage. It's always the people who were the most gung-ho against "preventing lust" and took it to an extreme that ended up either going overboard (promiscuity and whatnot) when they were out from their parents' thumb, or having other problems when they got married that I won't discuss in a family oriented message board.

The point I'm trying to make is this: Follow your convictions. But don't beat yourself up with guilt if you fail. Us males are born programmed to act a certain way. And keeping those urges in check is something that should be done, but going overboard with it can do a lot of harm--and living with constant guilt can and will damage you.

Also, have you prayed about what your mom told you? Again, I don't want to sound like I'm ragging on your mom, but, well, moms can be a little overprotective at times (mine certainly was). I don't think you should blow off what she said, but remember that just because someone claims they heard something from God doesn't mean that they heard something from God. So take what your mom said and temper it with your own discretion.

Anyway, as to the original topic, I've been playing a lot of Lego LotR lately. It should be okay as long as you don't have a problem with flat-chested women who are made out of plastic. XD

Fighting game-wise, I have to think back to when I still had my SNES and stalked the arcades....

The first three Samurai Shodown games aren't too bad. Nothing sexual in those that I can recall. The later ones do have a few skimpily-dressed ladies, but those aren't the more disturbing elements of those games (yes, I'm thinking of the cannibal-demon-thing....) The original Street Fighter II wouldn't be too bad, but once they introduced Cammy in Super Street Fighter II, things start to change. Capcom in general doesn't help when it comes to their newer fighting games... or pretty much any of their games with Morrigan.

For role-playing games, lots of pretty classic ones, but you're taking quite a step backwards in terms of graphics and features. Like Ultima IV (which is free to download). For newer games, maybe check out some of the games from Spiderweb Software. The latest Avernum remake does have one character model of a woman in a chainmail bikini, but you don't have to choose that one for a character (or any of the women figures, for that matter).

Thanks, I understand. And I will try not to beat myself up about it. Also, what do you mean by being a heathen?

he's not a Christian anymore

Oh. Really? Why not?
