The Life Game

Yesterday, I stumbled upon an idea for a game for bloggers to play, ironically while playing a game. I was playing Ferrari Challenge on PS3, and thought that I would be a much cooler person if I actually was a Ferrari race driver and not just some racing game geek =D.

 

But why stop at one game? Why not include all the games I've finished, and write a mock-wikipedia-biography thing? (Just a note for all you smart people who want to point out that it should be an autobiography because I'm writing it; who ever writes their own wikipedia page?

 

I thought this idea was kinda cool, even though you probably think I sound nerdy right now lol. But here I go (the games aren't in the order I've played/finished them, because it makes for a better story if they're mixed up):

 

Ben was born in England, and began his career playing for his local football (that's soccer to all you Australians and Americans) team, Bradford City. [FIFA 09] He left the team after a few seasons, and began racing tuned cars. He street raced illegally in a number of American cities, increasing in skill and reputation [NFS Underground, NFS Underground 2, NFS Carbon, Midnight Club 3, Midnight Club LA], until he became so notorious that the police issued a national warrant for his arrest, making him number one on their blacklist [NFS Most Wanted]. He escaped a national pursuit, and fled to Japan, where he began street racing again, but at legal events. [NFS ProStreet] This competition led him to Europe, and also back to America, where he raced under the alias of Ryan Cooper. From there, he drove in a series which converted street legal-cars into race-track ones, and won the championship in a Nissan GT-R racer. [NFS Shift]. He moved to Italy to join the factory-run Ferrari Challenge, and won all three championships, in Italy, Europe, and the USA respectively. With his prize money he bought a number of classic racing Ferraris, and entered them in other Ferrari Challenges throughout a number of seasons. [Ferrari Challenge Trofeo Pirelli] The Ferrari F1 Team then offered him a test driving seat, and from there he moved to McLaren F1, where he won the World Championship on his second attempt. [F1 2006] Two more followed in later years, and for the start of this season he has joined the new-coming team Lotus for a challege.

 

Or something like that lol. Nerdy hey? But if you like the idea, comment back with your video-game-cooler-than-life story. I can read your comments at least =D
