Just another day
Gaming Gripes

>amongst the rubble of a desert town an insurgent carrying an RPG crumples after having a three round burst hit him center mass
>the SF military man quickly drops the mag and slams in another before moving to fresh cover and closer to a half demolished stone hut 
Who the hell dumps an almost full mag?
Ja, itz very wasteful. 
>you sigh from where you sit on the floor as you hear the voices of your sig 556 and K98's Waffegeists chime in for the umpteenth time as they lay on the couch watching you play your vidya
>Sacha is laying on the couch and with a bag of chips on her stomach while Hazel sips from a glass of raspberry schnapps with her feet on the coffee table
>It's a video game, girls. It's not exactly supposed to be realistic. 
>you reply as you keep playing and try to ignore the peanut gallery 
Then why does the box say it's a "immersive and realistic" FPS?
>Sacha says holding up the game's case
>It's called tactical reloading. 
>you counter as you try to keep playing your game
Tactical should be practical. 
>Sacha counters with grin
Ja, I do not remember soldiers reloading after two shots. 
>Hazel says with a nod
>For fuck's sake just let me play my video game. 
>you say as look back at the pair and give them a glare
>only to hear the sound of an explosion coming from the tv
>looking back to the screen you see your character dead on the sand with the words "Reload from last checkpoint" above the body 
So very realistic. 
>you can practically hear the grin in Sacha's voice as you feel your left eye twitch 
>you can only think of one response 
FFFUUUUUUUUUUUU
