Hi. My name is Jay. I am seventeen years old, and I am here to tell you why I stopped playing video games. Here is my story.

I loved Spider-Man for the Sega Dreamcast. It was my favorite video game. UNTIL THIS HAPPENED.

I already had a copy of this game, though my two but now nine year-old brother, Tyson, stepped on it and crushed it. I forgave him shortly after though only because he was young and naive. He didn't know any better.

So i spent the few weeks working for my allowance. While doing so I found a copy of Spider-Man for the Dreamcast on eBay for only two dollars. I had seventeen dollars left out of my thirty dollar allowance, so i decided to buy it.

So I loaded up the game. It ran smoothly for its age. Only a few glitches or bugs. It was no big deal.

When I got to venom though, that's when shit started happening.

Venom was acting...strange. He was saying stuff like "I WANT YOUR SSSSOOOOUUUULLLL" or "DIE". I beat him easily, but the feeling in my stomach wasn't so easy. It went regular again until I reached Doc Ock. He was screaming in agony every time I punched him after drawing energy from his shield. I beat him, and made it to carnage, but carnage was harder than usual to beat because he was faster. I beat him and got to Monster Ock, but he was scary. Tentacles coated in blood with blood on all of the walls with writing in blood, saying "I'M COMING FOR YOU" and "DIE!", I also saw something disturbing in the level. It was a mutilated Spider-Man. I was scared now. I beat the game, though, but at the end of the game, instead of Ock lying down, knocked out, he lay down, mangled, bones popping out, intestines everywhere. Spidey still took Ock with him. At the jail cutscene, Ock was back to normal, and as soon as that cards scene ended, I got a text from an anonymous number. The text said "Your end is certain". Afterwards I saw someon on their phone, but he got taken by the cops for disturbing the peace.

And that's when I decided to stop playing video games. If you wonder what happened to my Dreamcast, I gave it to Tyson, because he's now a gamer, but I decided to focus my live on animating cartoons, and so ends my story on why I quit gaming.
