Ryan Johnson | GoozerNation

This article is a follow up to two separate articles: Can I Really Be a Social Gamer? and Help! My Wife Stole My Xbox! As the family meets in the middle of their hobbies over the medium of video games, Ryan Johnson of GoozerNation starts to see not only how his family is evolving, but how society sees gaming as a whole.

My wife ran off to the hospital with the Xbox. She has been pounding through Street Crimes on LA Noire. Meanwhile, I have the PC and Wii at home.

I have tried to keep up with the 'Villes (she wanted a neighbor in CityVille and a bunch of friends started requesting I join CastleVille). Each time I would log in though, I would be greeted with 40 CastleVille requests and maybe 8 of the original CityVille requests. Given that my main reason for playing CityVille is to play with my wife, who currently does not have an internet connection, it really proved hard to progress, considering I have nobody interested in trading anything.
