Its cool. My unhealthy obsession with Archer probably doesn't help my online gender appearance. XD

This is what happened to my brother!! haha FPS must eat your soul or something because those are the only games he plays now and he's also a more angry gamer when before he was more calm :/. I visited him one time at his apartment while he was playing online and he almost broke his TV by throwing the controller at it.

Pfffhaha, Kingdom Hearts is more mature than DmC. I'm glad you're showing it to someone in it's target age group.
I kid though, I'm glad you've had such a good experience with her. I basically raised my little sister back in the day, and she loved playing challenging heroic games like Onimusha and indeed Devil May Cry, anything with monsters in it. She even snuck in when I played Silent Hill, and we talked together about losing people you love thanks to SH2. I have a lot of fond memories of how we bonded over games.
My big brother on the other hand was always a prick to me when it came to games. He'd usually get the pick of what games we were getting, insisted I was cheating if I ever beat him at games he liked (punctuated with head punching), and was the kind of berk who spawn-camped the body armour in Goldeneye, insisting that the "AC-10" award was some kind of high accolade and not a label for assholes.
Good times all round.

Yeah, pretty much of how my also plays FPS. Always rage quiting whenever he loses or saying profanity for the sake of profanity whenever he is shot in the head in Battlefield 3 ^_^
Well, Archer is too GAR that many males in the Typemoon fandom use him as their signature and avatar in many forums. I also once use him as my signature here

Hey man here in my small apartment in Okinawa I have many friend who always stop over and one of them brought his sister( who i've known since she was 5 so she's like my sister too) over who is 13 and she watched us switch off each mission on Hell and Hell mode on DmC from the beginning for like 3 hours.
We are hardcore players so we didn't have much trouble beating the difficulty in one or two tries each so she didn't really see the difficulty in the game but just the story which in my thought was great! She kept asking questions about the storyline and the other games because she has watched her brother play all of the other games. She even understood the difficulty and applauded us in it too which was so awkward but also somewhat comforting.
After we beat HaH we let her play Nephilim and she did it like a pro til mission 5 which was funny but she was stuck up on not wanting to play the easier difficult since she has played dmc3 til the end. She just wasn't used to the controls was all I think she could be a pro at this game. I even gave her my Steam ID to play at her brothers and he is also appreciative of it too haha. I only gave it to them once I beat DmD without items, DT and demon dodge ^^. Anyways its very nice to know others siblings can get into such games and like it mainly for the story as I once did opposed to the gameplay.
I would like to say your sister is much younger than my best friends sister though but they are nevertoo young to start appreciating good games haha. One thing though some of DmC is kinds graphic and has soem language you let her witness that :blink: Not judging they are going to learn eventually but still :blink: still no judgement

Archer is gar! BUT HOLY HELL! I just made a kickass sig with him and it claims that its "TOO BIG" (har har har, laugh all you want) but it says it won't fit, EVEN THOUGH SOME PEOPLE HAVE GIANT ASS sigs MUCH larger than mine! What do I do?Yeah, pretty much of how my also plays FPS. Always rage quiting whenever he loses or saying profanity for the sake of profanity whenever he is shot in the head in Battlefield 3 ^_^

He's missing out.
Anyways, it's really nice to have threads like this. If we had a "Best Thread" Award. This would definitely be a contender.
Back on- topic,
Sadly enough, I do the same thing to my little sister. However, I do it out of a sense of security for her sake. While I know she can handle most of the games that I have, I don't think she can handle some of the games I play at my friend's house. I also sometimes doubt whether she can actually handle the gameplay. I remember when she and I were playing SSBB on the Wii, I didn't have any nunchuks so we just had to play with the Wiimote sideways. She couldn't hold it right and kept holding it like she would normally which ended up in her not knowing where the buttons were. Or in Kirby's Epic Yarn where she couldn't understand the little tutorials in the beginning of some of the stages.
I'm not saying that your brother shouldn't do a better job because, obviously, he does but I'm just giving some possibilities as to why he acts the way he does. And now I feel like a horrible brother.

If you're worried for her sake then you're an awesome brother and it's natural to worry about those you care about! And don't worry if she doesn't know what she's doing I didn't either at first and it all worked out in the end. Like you said earlier, she really she just wants to spend time with you, that's what most younger siblings want so just be there for her when she needs you. That's why I could completely relate when I read that. I didn't mean to make you feel depressed besides I'm 24 now so all I have are the nice memories.
And there should be a best thread competition were people could vote. This would be a winner for me.

If you like I could get my missus to look at the file and fiddle with it until it works. She's pretty good.

My eldest kid got into games around the age of about 3 or 4...when I got together with Steve, she was overawed to discover GTA, Fable TLC and Final Fantasy (we'd only ever had a PSOne before and the only titles on it were crappy ones from cartoons). She used to play GTA3 for hours...just driving around really carefully, telling NPC's off for cursing and stopping at all the red lights. She used to get really mad when I played and ran over hookers all the time
My middle son, Jake, loves games but because of his condition he can't process what he sees very well so we have to be careful what he watches...but he adores Sonic, Viva Pinata, Skyrim and is getting rather obsessed with watching me play Sims 3. He comes downstairs in the morning and instead of asking for a favourite film, he yells out a video game title and we put that on instead. Helps him with his concentration, his reactions and (oddly enough) his temper.
My youngest doesn't give a crap either way, but then he's very small so...there's time
Really lovely thread, by the way.

Well, my kid did it without my supervision. She played Persona 4 while I was away and loved every minute but she didn't quite get the concept of turn basesd RPG and had a hard time understanding the mechanics. She was 9 at the time and I didn't know if how to feel about her been expossed to those themes.
She's not big on DMC but she loves Bayonetta... I don't feel right about that, ether. I didn't really think that she was a good role model for my little sister but when I mentioned it to some of my lady friends they dissagreed...
