I’m loving the First Friday Drinking Game posted over on the Girl in the Machine blog.

This FFDG spotlights Resident Evil:

Pour the shots, pull up a chair, and follow these easy-to-remember rules:

1 drink for every zombie dog you encounter
2 drinks if zombie dog bursts through a window
1 drink whenever you’re cornered in a tight hallway
1 drink for shooting a zombie in the head when you “totally meant to”
2 drinks for shooting Ashley in the head by accident
2 drinks before facing the chainsaw guy in RE4 (you’ll need the liquid courage)
1 drink for every grating voice actor
2 drinks for: Jill Sandwich! (Why God? Why?)
1 drink every time the shitty controls of REs past lead you into the loving arms of a zombie
3 drinks for every Crimson Head you allow to manifest (shame on you)
1 drink every time Nemesis’s tentacle makes you feel really dirty
1 drink whenever you applaud the realism of limited space and curse it bitterly at the same time
1 drink every time you think it would be faster to just dig the lock out of a door with a spoon than hunt down all the items required to open it

And finally:
Finish your drink when you come to the sad realization that playing Jill over Chris is like selecting easy mode

Word.

Considering I am completely inept at survival horror games, I wonder exactly how much alcohol would end up on the floor if I tried this drinking game. I already scream and throw the controller whenever one of those evil little dog things jumps through a window. Holding a shot in one hand and a controller in the other seems like it would spell doom for my carpet…
