[quote name="tim rogers james frey, the mashup"][quote]On that first night, however, the game stabbed hypersensitive us with a frozen remorse: we saw the words “World 2″, immediately deleted our data file, restarted, and then, just as the game began, we held the rewind button down. We clicked the left bumper, speeding the rewind up to “8x”. The hero stood there oblivious. We held that god-damned, god-forsaken button down for three straight minutes, in the dark...Maybe we were outsmarting the game, or maybe the game was outsmarting us. There’s no telling; [/quote] It was dark. So dark. I sat down on the couch, sighed, stood up again. God. I booted up the Game and i held down the button and i waited. I waited and watched. Nothing happened. Maybe it was the Game who was waiting. Waiting and watching me. What you lookin at, Game? Nothing happened. I cried. [/quote]
