Title: What was your life like before AVP?
Post by: predxeno on Nov 02, 2010, 01:20:28 AM
I became interested in AVP, especially Alien, when I first saw the box art for the 1999 PC game when it first came out at Costco, I guess you could call it obsession at first sight.  But, I was too young and afraid of sci-fi/horror movies to continue my interest.  Before becoming obsessed with AVP (when I got older and not as afraid of it anymore), I was obsessed with dinosaurs.  Now that I'm obsessed with AVP, my obsession with dinosaurs has decreased.

Yeah, I can kinda sympathize with that. :D

The same, I suppose. Just with less Aliens and Predators involved.

Can't even believe this topic exists.

Which is ironic, because AvP did end up changing my leisure habits. My first PC FPS was AvP2, so there you go.

That anyone would be so caught up on what their life was like before or after discovering a singular media franchise.

Sure, I enjoy Alien-related stuff a lot, but I can't say it's been momentously life-changing.

Not cool, man.

Didn't changed a whole bunch, I am going to write a script over AVP so I guess that would change it a little.

This franchise and the Terminator franchise are costing me a lot of money. I got to stop buying expensive collectibles. Its a sickness.

Still young but not as stupid, AVP became my main intrest in 04 when I was 10. It replaced slasher films.

Sounds like you needed a new girlfriend!  Sorry to hear that, but seriously any chick that doesn't appreciate something your into needs to hit the road.

Oh, life before AVP was Resident Evil  8).

I don't really remember. I mean, I do vaguely remember a time before I fell in love with the visual design of the alien, but then, I was drawing rather intricate (for an 8-year-old) diagrams of the alien lifecycle on my school papers long before I'd seen any of the movies. Its always fascinated me.

She was. but it got on both of our nerves and we just fell apart. This is why the AVP movies should have never been created. They tear apart love ones with their stupidity.

You actually broke up over the movies, or because she felt you spent too much time on here?
