A national newspaper wants your story and will pay hundreds of pounds to the right person.

Write a few lines about how computer games turned you to crime and if it's something we like, we'll call you straight back.

Payment details: paid role

Created: 27 March 2008
Applications accepted for at least another month
Application criteria: Males & Females aged 0 to 60 from UK

From http://kotaku.com/373934/british-press-offering-ca...

I've applied. Here's my application:

I used to be a normal, respectable professional, notwithstanding my controversial family background. However, since playing F1 games on my playstation 2, I find myself attracted to nazi sex orgys with hookers. This is costing me £2500 a time, and has resulted in some embarrassing footage being released on the internet. It's ruining me to the max.

Fingers crossed.

Great.

Mind you, after a big Doom session, and then going out, I did flinch when I spotter a flustered looking flat bloke (his face was all pink).



Thank God I didn't have a BFG1000 in my bag or he'd have been in trouble.

After playing Castle Wolfenstien in the mid 1990s I would go out and find myself running along checking every wall I could see for secret doors.

After seeing someone who looked like a counter strike terrorist on a tube station platform, i ran at him flashing my car key torch, slashed my swiss army knife at the wall several times and then used my milk shake to paint a logo all over a large subway map.I was arrested later that day and when i asked how they managed to catch me, the officer said they had caught me on CCTV sitting still behind a pile of boxes for 4 hours holding an umbrella as if it were a sniper rifle.

I was had up before the beak on charges of animal cruelty, after they found me in my garden having given a set of miniature shotguns, grenades and bazookas to a few worms I'd dug up, named them after fascist dictators, and encouraged them to blow the living daylights out of each other.

Truly diverted from the path of righteousness by the foul temptations of video games such as this, I was:

Ditto, but for me it was Hall of Tortured Souls - because Excel is l33t, like.

I suppose a new thread could be started: Which RPG character are you like?

I don't know many RPG characters, though.
