I am the King of All of Video Games

And with that subject stated arrogantly, I will tell you of a comic situation that occured while
was playing Buffy: The Vampire Slayer on my Xbox.

Here I was, playing as Buffy, and I had just found myself a brand new oar while running around
on the docks near these cargo warehouses. I laughed to myself as I thought of smacking some
vampires in the face with it.

Well I round a nearby corner and, on que, comes a vampire. So, I ready myself. Just as
he gets close enough, I execute the command for a very impressive move where Buffy twirls
the oar in front of her, knocking the baddie with a few well-deserved smacks. And she
completes the move, looking as tough and Buffy-ish as possible. What has the vampire done?
He just held up his hands and blocked every attempt.

The vampire retaliates by connecting a high-kick with my face, knocking the oar out of my hands
and me onto my ass.

He then picks up my dropped oar and proceeds to chase me about the pier and beat me over the
head with it.

Well I get all pissed and I decided that if it's how he was gonna play, he was gonna burn for it.
So I get out my bottles of Hellfire. I run in front of him to gain some space, turn quickly and hurl
a bottle at him. It flies to far to the left and hits the wall of the warehouse.

I repeat the same process, running away, turning around and lobbing another bottle of Hellfire at him.
This one also flies over his shoulder and hits the wall behind him. But the fire from the explosion
manages to catch his back on fire.

Now becoming engulfed, the vampire drops the oar and flings himself at me, knocking ME down and
also catching me on fire and ALMOST knocking me off the pier and into the water.

He completely burned to ash before I even had the chance to get up and smack him around for
humiliating me.

....

Oh and in another news, apparently the process of completing a custom character in Jade Empire
was so strenuous that Nickie required a cigarette immediately afterward.
