Glad to see you...

If the gaming industry is an automobile, and the game designers are the drivers, then that makes us, the players, backseat drivers, and we'll be damned if we're gonna let the industry keep on heading the way it's going (good or bad) without letting them know what we think. So buckle up, feel free to complain about there being no air in the back, and bring your most critical and analytical mind to the open air discussion of the current age, Backseat Gamers!

Lunch date with a game character...GO!

If videogames were real and so were the characters in them who would you like to go to lunch with?

I have a 3 way tie:

Agent 47 - Hitman (but he might kill me while pretending to be a waiter/poison my food as a cook)
Wrex - Mass Effect (but he might kill me because I'm too damn soft)
Lucien LaChance - Oblivion (but he might convince me to kill someone as I join the Dark Brotherhood clan)

Maybe this isn't such a good idea afterall....

    "Dom... Carmine, Josh and I were all going to head to Red Lobster for my anniversary, and we were hoping that you and Maria... Oh. Dom, I'm so sorry... are you having as much trouble forgetting Maria's tragic death as I am?"

    But seriously, I think I'm gonna go with Andrew Ryan from Bioshock. Sure he might kill me (would you kindly finish your lamb chop?) but at least he'd have class and give me a nice meal before I go.

    Any of the Mario characters are out. They'd probably only serve spaghetti, and get it all over the place. What would the conversation sound like? Momma mia, look at-a all-a the breadsticks! Do you like-a the meat-a-ball-as or would you appreciate-a the salda-a? Oh-a-no-a! Look at-a this-a bill-a! Do you-a have-a the Visa Card-a?

    Solid Snake. I would be the only one eating though, as he is automatically nourished by his nanomachines, grumbling under his breath and grunting occasionally as I try to not make eye contact with him.

    It would be really awkward.

    I refuse to answer because of Amateria's response.



    ... ok I lied. This is a no brainer: Nathan Drake. Professional badass and pimp who is the illagitimate love child of Indiana Jones and Laura Croft.
