Rip my friend

[melodicmizery]

I'll be honest im sort of a sarcastic dickwad on these forums half the time but i wanted to make a serious dedication to one of my friends

Nearly 9 years ago me and my best friend started playing Lego Indiana Jones in co op and never finished it. Since then we had always wanted to go back and finish it and never got around to it. My friend has passed away since then. So i took the time to finish it for my 280th platinum. I was going to make it the 300th but i already waited long enough.

Some gamers dont have any friends, some do, some dont. Or maybe we dont have close ones and so we find ourselves trapped in this gaming world. And even if we have friends, most of them suck at gaming. He was the only person who i could ask to come over for co op help if i needed it at any time. He showed me cuphead before it was on playstation and how he mastered it. He was starting a collection of old video games. He once drove 4 hours to buy a atari that was refurbished by atari that had been sitting in someones attic for over 20 years. He had A complete boxed mint NES he was really proud of. He got a mint cartridge of Battletoads and would buy the nes tools to open the games and inspect them to make sure they were authentic. one of the last things he bought before he died was a commodore. one of the coolest things he showed me was something called a n-gage cell phone. if you never seen one look it up. its a cell phone built like a hand held game system. When he bought it, it came with a few games. One was just files. After inspecting the files he showed me that they were some sort of development game some software company was in the middle of making and for some reason never published it. Alot of people tried to get the files from him and he debated on letting people have it for free or keeping it rare. but then people became snakes about trying to get it from him and he decided to keep it. his sister who is also a gamer now has all of it. so i guess this is a bit of a off topic post and i dont know if it fully fits here. but i would kind of feel like a bad friend if i didnt give a little bit of a dedication and furthermore this is really the only gaming site i like. he loved skateboarding, so thats the pic i tried including. so i dunno what else to say. rip buddy

thanks everyone. gets hard to look back on this stuff. since then i moved to a completely different area and started a new life. i still find games where for a split second im like this can be a good co op for us, or i wish he was here to help for some split screen. he would ask me anytime "you know any games we can play". it didnt even matter if he liked the game or not all i would have to say is you wanna play this and hed say yes. i guess he just wanted to occupy his time as much as possible to escape what he was going through. use to buy things brand new for himself like mics and headphones and after he had them for a week lose interest and just give them to me. we played alot of resistence until the servers closed and never got to finish it. i remember he was trying to help me get a trophy in red dead online that i couldnt get, he got the trophy on accident instead of me and then i didnt end up getting the trophy until years later lol.
