Comments on: 95 Granny http://www.noobz-online.com/en/2010/02/12/95-granny/ a webcomic for gamers Wed, 15 Feb 2012 22:10:03 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: Sophie http://www.noobz-online.com/en/2010/02/12/95-granny/#comment-2614 Sophie Sun, 21 Mar 2010 09:46:09 +0000 http://www.noobz-online.com/en/2010/02/12/95-granny/#comment-2614 Bit late to comment but I loved this. Bought CoD4 a few months ago and the young chap (looked no more than 18 but that could be just my aging perception) behind the counter was very polite and friendly, asking if I was buying it for a son or nephew. No, it was for me. He got very concerned and reassured me I could bring it back if I didn't like the violence... I bit my tongue and refrained from telling him I'd been fragging things since before he was born. And hope to be still at it when I retire. The only difference is nowadays I'm prepared to wait until a game has dropped in price before I squander my lunch money on it. Bit late to comment but I loved this.

"Guys, could you wait a few minutes, my granddaughter is hungry." Grandma iced Ragnaros heard this over vent during one of our raids.

The first video game I ever played was one designed by my Star Trek obsessed boyfriend on our college mainframe in the 1970s. I'm sure the members of my four year old WoW guild get tired of hearing about the "good old days". I put this on my Facebook, so they can all laugh. OMG THANK YOU!

All your cyber reality junk is the fail. I've seen WoW before it was in ultrareality, I've seen fps's without the sight enchancer module... you dont know a THING... n00bs!"

That could be my mom right there. She's 58 this year and is the person that got me into gaming. As a kid I spent more time watching her play nintendo than actually playing it myself. Great!

Granny strikes back. Kinda makes you wonder, though, what would happen if new gamers went through the classics before jumping on the HD bandwagon. Ooh, snap! Granny strikes back.
