He just wants to take an interest in what you do. Try taking an interest in him, can almost guarantee he's got some great stories.
detour512
I use to love when my Dad would watch me play, would go crazy when he'd give me feedback or offer advice. Something about him being there.

Post a pic of pops and let's make him Imgur famous

I lived with my grandparents for a while during college, he bought a ps2 and we used to stay up late, me playing and him yelling "SNEAK!"
TheCouldHaveBeenKing
too bad you were playing mario kart...

That's really cute

My grandfather played Grand Theft Auto 3 and Socom Navy seals with us on the PS2.
Stainawarjar
That's probably what he did in real life during the war.

Hey quit playing around! Sneak? SNEEEEEAAAAK!

SNAKE?! SNAAAAAAAAAKE!!

When I was a wee lad (12, probably) my dad used to be mesmerized watching me play Runescape. I always thought his interest was cool.

Grandpa loves you!
Ihaveyourgifsrighthere
Mother in law says the thing she misses most about living with us is not being able to watch me game. Love Modern Warfare and Gears of War.

Play Witcher 3, give the old man some boobies to look at..
mrmartini
Everyone is making "Grandpa remembers WWII" jokes, but mine was a Witcher so he just tells me which witch to bang.

Conan Exiles is also good there. A bit glitchy though.

I love sharing games with people who don't play them. My mom really enjoyed watching me play Prince of Persia on the Gamecube.
KittensNipplespearbuttsgifpiraterefrenceupvotedownvotedeadpool
My old roommate loved to do this. Would make snacks and sit there gasping and laughing at stuff.
Cranksta
I love when people watch me play! I used to watch my brothers when I was a kid and I see it as a bonding thing.
HeatAgni
I find it hard to play while being watched. It makes me way more conscious of what I'm doing so the other party is being entertained.
If I keep them entertained, maybe they won't ask me for context or plot details or anything, and I can keep my powerful fear of being
ridiculed for enjoying or being enthusiastic about something at bay! It's tough when you've got roommates.
I can see that and I do it too, but it's not too bad. I just like sharing the moment.
hennennesu
I do not play but I love to watch too. :-)

No one I know likes to watch me play but I'll watch them play. I wish I had people that would be invested like that :(

My grandpa uses to talk shit about video games, but then he saw me playing Fallout3 and then he wanted me to teach him how to play.
Asshats
Cherish your Grandpa while you still have him.
vamenn
Truth. Mine passed in 2010 (can't believe it's been so long) and I miss him daily. Grandparents are true gifts.

Well if you're playing Uncharted 4, he's not wrong at all!
OneFroToRuleThemAll
I was thinking more along the lines of a Tell Tale game
rainmakerab
Awesome series, looking forward to new episode
Elerich
the Chloe game " Uncharted: Lost Legacy" looks pretty good. Comes out at the end of summer :D
Nice :)
keioto
I just started uncharted a week ago. I'm up to 4, just did the introduction last night. Streaming it too, poorly, through the PS4.
icanchangemyusernamealotoftimes
I played the previous 3 parts and loved them! How is Uncharted 4? Worth the wait?
glacialbae
1. Possibly the best interest he series. The story is definitely the best. You'll never want to play another one because it ends everything
2. so perfectly.
Nope another on the way
WhyTheFuckDoINeedAUserNameOkCallMeChris
My grandpas been gaming longer than I've been alive. His $3k rig puts mine to shame. And he's 75. No joke.
Imgurfluffel
My Dad got into gaming shortly after I built my system. He put >$3k more into his machine than I did. I'm both confused and jealous.
r3dl8dy
My mom and I bought my 69yo dad a PS4 @ xmas. Dad's had most every console since he brought home pong for us. (No Wii, but everything else.)
mindcrash
He wants to spend time with his grandchild
ThePoorWarrior
At 30, no grandparents left, i wish I had played less video games and talked to them more.
SassyPantaloons29
28 and have no grandparents, I can relate to how you feel.
Ivaer
31, my grandparents are polar opposites of me in some ways and, when we DO sit down and talk, it all tends to revolve around politics (1)
and/or religion, not for lack of trying to talk about OTHER things, they just always go back to them. Makes me kind of sad, because (2)
they've lived such full lives and I want to know more about them, but I also can't stand listening to them go back over and over to (3)
how terrible Obama was and how the Democrats are ruining the country. Practically a Catch 22 of disappointment, frustration, and knowing (4)
kevinjameshunt
Same.... who's chopping onions BTW?
BurbleNutz
Lost both sides of gramps when 23. I'll never forget my dad's expression of sudden absolute shock when he got the news on the phone.
rehbecka
My grandpa just died on saturday. He had a stroke a few years ago and has been getting worse progressively. At least he died in his sleep &
It wasn't unexpected.
QuiteADapperAsshole
He can probably provide some firsthand context to WW2 games.
snowgim
My dad's not that old, but when I told him about a WW2 game I played he looked concerned and said "You don't play as the Germans do you?"

My father just comes downstairs and sits on my couch and says "that guy killed you, you suck" then leaves
callmethelizardqueen
I would tell my kids "give me the controller, let mom show you how its done". They stopped playing when I'm around. I'm an OG gamer.
Jamesnake1990
At he didn't come in with jumper cables *sigh*
I'm like "WAIT COME BACK IM ACTUALLY AT THE TOP OF THE LEADERBOARD" he's not coming back

My 5yo watches me play Destiny sometimes. I'm only average at PvP, and every time I die she says "You died." It's really fucking frustrating

Your father sounds awesome.
CPTWildBillKelso
Lol! My dad does this too but he's also a gamer, so his smack talk game is tight.
TheConformityInCommentorsHereIsAstronomical
Tell your grandpa the internet loves him!

Tell your grandpa the Internet says he's a fag!

For real. Tell him to get off my imgur lawn.

My grandma thinks its real life whenever I am playing a realistic racing game

Wish my grandpa was still around, he was super cool, as cool as your ☺

You need to start a YT channel called "Let's Play with Grandpa" and record grandpa's reactions and critiques.

I was playing Arkham Asylum with my grandpa watching once, he didn't realize it was a game, thought that batman was just wandering around.
pancreas
I played Arkham Asylum once. I didn't realize it was a game. Just me mashing Triangle.
Dude, the Arkham series had fucking *excellent* storytelling. ...Just wish they hadn't lied about the Arkham Knight being "completely new".
Crowlands
He originally was going to be a new character. But then DC wanted to promote Jason Todd to the game audience, so executive meddling happens.
I have not seen that *anywhere*. Got any links to info? I am curious as to exactly what they said.
I just wish it hadn't been ruined for me who he actually was, I played it a while after it had come out and saw a spoiler -_-
NotTodayNotYesterday
Likewise. Also happened to me for the Walking Dead. There's nothing more I hate than someone who puts a spoiler in a YouTube thumbnail.
Walking dead game, I mean.
Eh, I kind of expected it before the game even released. His behaviour just lined up too well.
Paradigmthefallen
Every Arkham -before- Knight, save for the mobile games, is excellent. Let us just never speak of Knight again...
Knight's not a bad game. I just wish they hadn't so blatantly "borrowed" from another recent-ish Batman line for the ending. And hadn't (1)
lied about the Arkham Knight being completely new.
I'm gonna buck the trend on Imgur and just politely agree to disagree. It's not terrible but... doesn't compare well to the previous games.
I'm down with agreeing to disagree. Silly thing to get angry with each other over, anyway.
