Today I took my first and probably last foray into Xbox live gaming. My month free of xbox live expires on the 1st, so I wanted to get the most out of it. By "most out of it" I mean, go on real quick and kick the shit out of people at Tetris to get the achievement points.
Despite the fact that I'm perfectly comfortable online, I have huge amounts of trouble even considering online gaming in any form. I think it's mainly because of the vocal communication involved (I have a huge phone phobia), but I also feel self-conscious about my ability.
I'm pretty decent at tetris and I found that I didn't have to talk to anybody while playing them. I lost a few rounds because my hands were shaking, but I did manage to beat three people at once in a four person game. I logged off as soon as I got all the points, though, and have no desire to go back.
And now I just want
tetris out of my head.
