Nine Moments You Were Proud To Be A Gamer!

Is a gamer not entitled to his accolades? Are his mantles not strong enough to hoist bronze statuettes and framed placards? Is he never to rise from the solace of his throne of bean-baggery, clenched fists caressing the sunrise as a green-screened mountain range draped with opaque patriotic banderole sails behind him?

No, say the parents of the would-be misanthrope, as they watch their progeny sink further into a headset.

No, says his social circle, shaking their heads and wondering why he’d enjoy such endeavors as they pile into a Pasat en route to giving Michael Bay $15 each.

No, says the FOX News anchor, as he spouts rabid talking points blaming videogames for the decline of modern everything.

But he deserves better. We deserve glory.

Being a gamer is no easy task. It seems that you will always catch some flak from people because of one person or another just because they probably don’t understand. Most all of us gamers have been in the situation where we do something in our favorite games that we didn’t think was possible or just got darn lucky. If it was beating the final level on the hardest difficulty, or finding that secret room that everyone said didn’t exist, we have all had our moments that we like to brag about.

Those of us that are gamers understand where our fellow gamers are coming from, but those who choose to miss out on the excitement of gaming will sadly never get to be a part of these great moments. So below is a list of nine moments that we gamers were proud to be gamers!

1. Finally Getting Past a Tough Boss
2. Reaching 100% Completion for the First Time
3. Beating a Game Without Cheating or Using Codes
4. Beating a Next-to-Impossible Game for the First Time
5. Getting a Higher Score Than Your Sibling
6. Being the First to Camp Out for Midnight Launch
7. Discovering a Cheat or Easter Egg Before Anyone Else
8. Beating a Smack Talker
9. Knowing More Than the Clerk at Game Stop

So there you have it… nine moments that without a doubt would make just about any gamer proud! I am not going to go into detail with each of these nine moments because they are all pretty self-explanatory. If you don’t seem to understand some of these moments listed… well then I am sorry to say that it looks like you are not a gamer and you just probably wouldn’t be able to understand.
