Guest guest Posted May 11, 2003 Report Share Posted May 11, 2003 Next Saturday is 's birthday. My parents are giving him an X-box which he has long wanted. I planned to get him a game to go with it since it is not much good having an X-box and no games. maintains a useful wishlist on Amazon.com. I told him some time ago to be sure to include anything he was interested in, even games from other systems. But modest did not do that. All the games listed were for Gamecube and PC. Well, Enrique knows all the games (and can instantly tell you how highly rated they are by Game Informer, his favorite magazine) so naturally I turned to him. Enrique did not want an X-box. He says there are no good games for it yet. He went on, " Now that Microsoft bought out Rare [a favorite game company] the X-box should be getting some good games, but Rare is so slow that it will take a while. I can't see why we should buy an X-box before there are any decent games. Any good games that an X-box has now are also available on Gamecube and Playstation 2. So I don't know why we should get an X-box and not a PS2 " Well, perhaps because it is 's birthday and that is what wants? At any rate, I was not surprised that Enrique looked disapproving when I asked him about a game for . " What game do you think he would want? I know there was one he mentioned last time we talked about an X-box, but I can't remember what it was called. " Enrique looked still more disapproving. " He would want Halo, " he told me grimly. Halo did not sound familiar to me, but Enrique really knows his games so even if it is not the game that wanted, it should still be a good game. We drove to the store the next day and I bought Halo. Enrique walked in disapproving silence out of the store with me. As we got into the car, he said, " I just don't know why you'd buy him a game that's rated M. " Huh? " I didn't know it was rated M? " " Well, didn't you look? " No, I didn't. Neither he nor would play a game rated M. would not ask for a game rated M. I had thought it sounded unfamiliar. I just assumed that Enrique would give me an appropriate game that would want. But I didn't ask for an appropriate game. I just assumed. And I asked Enrique what game would want and, to Enrique's mind, Halo is the only decent game that is an exclusive for X-box and therefore would naturally want it even if he would not want to play an M-rated game. Enrique, for instance, would not play Grand Theft Auto Vice City, because it is an amoral game, but it has insanely high ratings from everyone who has played it so naturally he would WANT it. We drove home in gloomy silence. Why the heck couldn't he have told me what he thought BEFORE I bought the game. Now I will probably have to take it back, boo, hiss.
