Post While playing has anyone ever bugged u and messed you up?

Say you are just about to beat a time trial in TRA or TRL and someone comes in maybe your kid, boyfriend, girlfriend, mother or father and messes you up by talking or wanting you to do something. If this has happened to you has it made you angry? It just happened to me tonight and I was very upset. Why can't people see that it is hard to play this game, let alone bug me while playing.

My animals have a habit of walking over my laptop whilst I'm trying to play. That bugs me - a lot! I think Allsorts wants to join in! - Tomb Cat or would that be Lara Cat!

Smile I know the feeling

Sounds like my dog. Well my Playstation 2 and xbox 360 is in the bed room but the Playstation 3 is in the living room and my dog loves to sit on wires and bark and jump up and down and act crazy, and I have lost quite a few games. I know the feeling. Maybe your cat wants to play Tomb Raider, you should share sometimes and just give your lab top to your cat. Look if I can give my steering wheel and gas and foot breaks to my dog (Video game race wheel), then you can give your lab top to your cat. Let me know if your cat wins any of the time trials.

My baby sister likes to play with my controller when I'm out of the room. I have to leave it up high somewhere. She is sooo.. smart! Somehow she always gets it and resets my games. Thankfully my PS3 is wireless cause my dog likes chewing cables. I have tons of controllers that are now useless.

Parent "feed the dogs!" "Do this, Do that"

So i respond, it in the middle of a cut scene and if i press start it will quit the cut scene and start the game and i will die! (which is a big fat lie )

Yeah, parents! and brothers and sisters! :bad:

When I was playing Legend on the PC, I had to do that on the PC downstairs because it didn't work on my Laptop.. I died a lot of times because my mum needed to ask me something, again! or every time I had to quit the game, because my dad wanted to check his mail!!

So, when anniversary came.. I didn't want the same to happen. So I lent the PS2 of my brother (which he never use, he keeps it in a box under his bed. ) and bought the PS2-version to play in my room.
and you know what? never had any trouble during playing it

too bad I can't do that again when Underworld's coming since it won't come on PS2 (or the wii )

Worst thing that happens often to me, is when I play new Tomb Raider (or any other game I haven't played before) and someone comes and starts to talk with me during the cutscene...

Or asks you 2 do something during a cutscene and some games you cant pause during cutscenes. Can you so you like shouting either down the stairs (which i normaly do) and then you miss something which you really need to know

That's right, sadly I can't shout downstairs as I live in block...

My 4 year old sister.

She loves TR, and sometimes sneaks in and sits on my bed while I'm playing.

In Palace Midas:

"Hey Laura, what's that?"
"A statue"
"Of who"
"A King"
"Oh...climb up it!"
"I am"
"Woah, what just happened?"
"I turned into gold"
"Why?"
"Well..."

*explains the story of King Midas to her*

"...and then the hand is meant to be like the story, so when I step on- AHHHHHHHHHHH!"

*two gorillas jump out*

"Hey...what are those monkeys doing there?"
"OH NO...AHH...HELP..AHH...STUPID CAMERA! NOOO!"

*dies*

"...eh? What happened? "
"I died"
"...you're rubbish, Laura! "

Me:

Sounds like a annoying little sister you have.
I remember once i took Legend over my sister house and i dived off somewhere (try nad look stylish) but LAra missed the place and killed her self. My sister laughed and so i picked up the box and threw it at her (it was meant to hit her in the stomach. But it lifted up and hit her in the nose.


I was like ... I thought i broke her nose. And i thought she was going to kill me instead she sat there in pain. Whoops... But we laugh about it now.

I'm embarrassed to say I bugged myself by simply missing the landings of VERY EASY jumps or something else done naively. I guess I'm my own worst enemy when playing TR sometimes and probably to Lara since inevitably, she's the one that dies, not me.

Default Shut UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What I hate the most is when I'm watching a cinamatic and my brother comes in (without knocking ) and starts talking to me!

Me: "Shut up!"
Brother: "What game are you playing?"
Me: "Shut up!!!"
Brother: "But what game are you playing!?"
Me: "Just shut up!!!!!"
Brother: "But what game are you playing! Just tell me and I will be quiet!"
Me: "SHUT UP AND GET OUT OF HERE!!!!!!!!"

And when he finally does leave he leaves the door wide open. Also he comes in and starts playing my 360 when I pause it!
One time he had a toy gun that made a really loud bang when you pulled the trigger. He snuck up behind me and shot it when I was playing Assassin's Creed. He never saw that gun again...

Im the youngest in my family and all my borther's and sisters have left so all i got is my dogs and my parents which drive me up the wall no matter what im doing...

"Jake!!! I need you to wash up!!
"MUm im trying to do something let me do it and i'll pause it and come down!"
"Jake Do IT NOW!!!"

OR

"Mum hang on im in a cut scene"
"I don't care if you in a bloody cut scene, get down here now or ill cut the wires to your PS2 and PC!"

That's how lovely me and my parents are...

(Notice my dad hasn't been involved yet, normally he waits until my mum asks him to get me lol)

Default you have no idea.

Okay my older cousin who always lays on the floor to watch t.v will grab my ankles while he's down there and tickle my feet while I'm battling a big boss or going for a risky ledge grab. Its both annoying and demeaning. Annoying cos it usually stuffs me up. Demeaning because I'm a DUDE! And big black dude aswell! Were not meant to be ticklish! And of all places the feet! Hahaha. o_O
