The machine is kinda busted so you can’t play with him. Drinking more is an option.
They got pinball? I’ll play some pinball.
Pinball is the best answer.
I’d play pinball so hard.
As long as there’s one machine that’s not Sternslop
I’m not like a super enthusiast about pinball, so I had to look that up and came up empty handed. Best I can figure is there is a company that makes tables cslled Stern and I have to assume that they (or at least it is your opinion that they) suck?
Yeah. Stern is one of the few companies making new tables, and the stuff they produce these days is all about making an account and tracking your games with QR codes. They even have a few where there is a kind of meta-game that you play across multiple rounds. Not really my thing.
A friend of mine got a summer job working a pinball joint, so I’ve learned to appreciate the game a lot more recently. Helps to have an inside person giving me free plays.
Fuck that shit. Gimme some Addams Family or Doctor Who and I’m good.
Safecracker for me. I never did crack that safe.
Those Stern games still play if you don’t make an account, though.
Source: My local Godzilla machine has consumed many of my toonies, but I refuse to make an account out of principle. Still really fun though.
OK, you have a point on Godzilla, that machine is pretty fun. I also enjoyed playing John Wick despite my prejudice.
I made up a game called Deep Spy Penetration to play whenever I’m drunk and bored indoors. The goal is to get into as many areas of the building as possible without getting told to leave.
Rules:
- Don’t be an asshole. Don’t steal stuff, break anything or move barricades.
- Don’t lie to get access. Asking is allowed.
- Opening doors with easily missed “no entry” signs is allowed, anything the average person might not see. Don’t open doors with blatant warnings.
- If you get caught you lose.
- If you set off an alarm you mega-lose.
Have you ever mega lost?
Only once. My teammate broke rule 1, tried to steal an air filter from maintenance. I didn’t want to end up sharing a cell so I ran for the closest exit.
Not to be confused with your other favorite drunk game deep space double penetration!
Correct answer. Do it, OP!
Drink more then go play some racing games. They are far more hilarious when drunk.
I’m a huge fan of the Gran Turismo (others as well, including rally) series. I’m pretty good too. I have my own wheel/pedal setup and take beating my PB’s on tracks pretty seriously. The handful of times I’ve played drunk have been insanely great fun. It also reinforced how important it is to NEVER drive drunk
I remember when I played a lot of call of duty, it was always surprising when I had one or two drinks and played. I never “felt” impaired, I mean I don’t generally feel drunk after just 1 drink, but the numbers didn’t lie. I’d go from top 3 on the leader board to bottom 3 (it was frustrating). My reaction time must have been much slower, like significantly slower. And I probably made worse decisions, like when it was safe to reload, or when to swap a weapon for something on the ground.
Drink more, dance on the 2nd player pad with more freedom than he can since my side doesn’t work. Insist that I won. Say, “it’s ok, the bar isn’t the only thing you’ll be humping* tonight” with a wink, in an effort to go home because idk what else to do in this barcade.
*I call the folks that play DDR while holding onto the rail bar humpers. Idk if this is common.
I am 100% making fun of him and/or clapping deliberately off-beat
Clapping off-beat is the kind of low key, mischievous evil that I can fully support
Drinking and watching since the only way my SO is playing a dance game is at my behest and I’m not looking away from a miracle.
Same! Watching AND taking pictures because that ain’t ever happening again.
Mad dog Mcree all the way!
Otherwise:
Silent scope
Are you kidding? The only thing more busted than that machine are his MOVES! I’m drinking until I get the warm fuzzy tingly fluttery feeling in my chest and then I’m gonna watch him so much more intently…
And I’m gonna be cheering for him and making catcalls at him the whole time :3
Heyo yeee healthy relationship! <3
Is there a Simpsons or X-Men machine from the 90s?
Don’t forget TMNT!
COWA BUNGA!
Pizza time!
Wait for him to pull off a sick combo and go “WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!”
Watch. Nerds playing DDR in front of people is basically their mating dance.
You’re asking what to do at an arcade?
I think they’re asking what to do at an arcade if you’re drunk and your husband is playing dancing games.
So… Qbert?
I don’t think so.
And providing needed context that drinking more is an option.
Good point
Tease him enough to distract him.
Of course, drink more, but also, QBert. Fucking love me some QBert.
But only play if the solenoid is working. A person has got to have standards.
