I would spec Cal-M and Cal-P matches all the time. Its how you learn new strats and tactics. I used to compare it to playing a sport though. With CS you have a team that works together and devises strats to complete a goal. Just like sports. You need to practice and study "game tapes" to see how to play better. The only difference is your sitting at your computer (or in my teams case LAN center) it's different than other sports though in the fact that you don't really get anything from it. Nothing physical except hand eye co-ordination and you don't get "tired" from playing so you can play for 15 hours straight.

Berz out.

i used to skip class in highschool just to play CS that shit was addicting. I would go for like 15 hours straight of CS. And when I would eat dinner n shit i would watch match replays.. pretty fucked up now i look back LOL

Play MS for awhile. It got really boring and suck with thier cash shop items. Giving ppl who spend tons of money an unfair advantage. Not to mention all the drama going on(Guild hogging the boss day and night and wouldn't let anyone else go in). Yes MS is dumb only 1 channel will have boss and the famous/jerk/asshole guild whould hog it all to themselve so no one can go in. People can buy 2x exp, 2x money , 2x drop...... cards......

i'm addicted to final fantasy games
guess because i'm a perfectionist, i have to level all my characters to max level and get everything

I have the same exact problem with final fantasy! I can't just play through the game without getting every thing the game offers.

Example would be Valkyrie Profile 1 and 2. I had to get all the characters in the first one, and adding Seraphic Gate racked up another 30-40 hours onto game play.

Worth every penny though :thumbsup:

^have you ever played an FF game and spent countless hours getting your guys super strong, then beat the boss in like 2 hits?
i did in FFX. got mindy (magus sister) so powered up, she randomly did that bee attack that hits 13 times for 99,999 dmg each shot. thats 1.3m damage off one move! totally unfulfilling when you see all your hard work amount to a 2 min last boss kill.

i beat the secret boss Ozma in FF9 really quick
i was like wtf, that was easy

i feel the opposite, i feel godlike knowing i can beat these bosses with ease

CS and SC for me...

Being good at a game causes the addiction for it

video games are so addicting. I only play cs :)
