Containment Random Thoughts & Questions

How good is Chris at vidya, do you think? In his LBP footage he looked like he was trying to eat the controller or something, but then again he has completed the original Sonic games - and they're not that easy, from what I remember.
He's not very good, from what I hear. He plays everything on lower difficulty settings. Most of his success comes from that he's got persistence and lots of free time.
 
He is (or was, the last time I checked) in the PSN world top 100 on the TRUE AND ORIGINAL Sonic games. I think he's decent at games if he practices, but there's precious little in this mortal existence he'd practice as much as he did Sonic as a kid.
 
What's the significance of the Psyduck in the smilies? I must have missed that brief bit of Christory.
 
Looking over the homework leaks, I'm really amazed at how Chris's life is so much worse than it could have been. Looking at his assignments, in some ways he seems positively average. That isn't to say he isn't lazy and dumb as dogshit-- he is. Chris has no idea how the US government works, how challenging it is to deal with a pregnancy or raise children, how to read english or speak basic spanish. He was an absolute failure of a student... but you know what? He's not alone in that. LOTS of people get through school without learning a damn thing and still go on to have lives. They might not be doctors and lawyers, but they still manage to do better than "Semi-homeless transvestite with a collection of stained pants and a weird relationship with mawmaw".

The new revelations show that Chris was indeed a total wash-out as a high school student... and yet, that doesn't change how it was still the best time in his life. Even factoring in that his "friends" weren't really his friends and likely couldn't stand him, it STILL doesn't change that this was still as good as his life was ever going to get.

Fuck, that's depressing.

I also remember hearing about him on Mod Nation Racers ragequitting. Also I can't remember who but I remember hearing that he actually won at Street Fighter 4 and was a cunt about it.
 
Yeah you know, Chris is the "Level-Up King" after all. Of course he sucks at video games.

Wonder if he played in any arcades in the early 90s, back when he still had a life outside his room.

This animal sums up Chris's academic success nicely:

Any info on his medication use? I know it´s been discussed, but i wonder how much they help... Waiting for a snappy Cäpärty remark...

Has Chris' Lego consumption eclipsed his vidya hoarding?

Well, I suppose it depends on how you define it. Legos are cheaper than video games, and you get a lot more pieces in any given set. Plus there are a lot more Lego sets than video games, and more coming out every year (yes, yes, there are a lot of video games released every year too, but not for every system, and some will be games Chris isn't interested in, or doesn't have access to). In terms of pure volume I'm sure Chris has more Legos than video games, and likely has for quite some time. In terms of actual money spend on it, especially if you include DLC, I suspect it's anyone's guess.
