[url]http://www.1up.com/news/skyrim-presentation-sends-woman-labor-stuck-around-over[/url] [QUOTE]All sorts of crazy things can happen at QuakeCon, but going into labor probably isn't especially high on most attendees' to-do lists. Nevertheless, that's exactly what happened to one couple attending the show after getting engaged at the event last year. During a presentation on [URL="http://www.1up.com/games/pc/elder-scrolls-v"]The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim[/URL] earlier today, a pregnant woman went into labor, [URL="http://www.gameinformer.com/b/news/archive/2011/08/05/woman-goes-into-labor-during-skyrim-presentation.aspx"]Game Informer[/URL] reports. Rather than leaving immediately, she and her fiancé stuck around until it was over before heading to the hospital. It wasn't entirely because they had to see the whole thing, though that probably didn't hurt. "During the demo Todd Howard showed off the Frost Dragon. This is what started the whole thing, seeing this must have filled Stevi with so much excitement that it sent her into labor," said the new father, Chaz, in a message sent later to Game Informer. He explained that they decided to wait in case she wasn't actually in labor, meaning they "stayed for the rest of the demo because she is a trooper and LOVES Skyrim." The couple had intended to get married during this year's QuakeCon following last year's engagement. Obviously they'll have to put those plans on hold. Hopefully everything went smoothly with the delivery of their baby girl, who is to be named Atari Lynn. And, by extension, hopefully the expenses of having a child won't prevent them from picking up the newly-announced $150 [URL="http://www.1up.com/news/how-bethesda-hopes-get-15-for-skyrim"]Skyrim collector's edition[/URL], which I suspect they're rather excited about.

Now that, is one cool game.
She is going to be the best mother ever.
Poor kid getting named Atari... sega 4 life
That kid will be born with a fully grown manly Viking beard.
[QUOTE=the-dutch-guy;31568378]That kid will be born with a fully grown manly Viking beard.[/QUOTE] That would require you to be born inside an IKEA store.
All that kid needs is an x instead of an n and then we can predict it's gonna get bullied at school by a Gameboy and GameGear
[QUOTE=the-dutch-guy;31568378]That kid will be born with a fully grown manly Viking beard.[/QUOTE] Erm, [quote=Article]Hopefully everything went smoothly with the delivery of their baby [b]girl[/b], who is to be named Atari Lynn.[/quote] Also, Atari? Really?
[QUOTE=Skyhawk;31568413] Also, Atari? Really?[/QUOTE] Should've named her Dovakhiin.
Stevi and Chaz
[QUOTE=Skyhawk;31568413]Erm, Also, Atari? Really?[/QUOTE] It's not a ridiculous name, deal with it.
[QUOTE=Leaf Runner;31568707]It's not a ridiculous name, deal with it.[/QUOTE] Yes it is
my parents named me super mario sega nintendo thanks mom
[QUOTE=evilweazel;31568728]Yes it is[/QUOTE] No its not. Valve would be a wierd name, Atari, not so much. I knew someone named Amari, that's not so far off, and that's not a ridiculous name, so why would Atari be?
[QUOTE=Asgard;31568493]Should've named her Dovakhiin.[/QUOTE] They stated that anyone who did this would get free Bethesda games for life. So it'd be worth it...
Why would you name your child after a game platform this makes no sense at all
[QUOTE=Paravin;31568921]Why would you name your child after a game platform this makes no sense at all[/QUOTE] Huge nerds for parents.
[QUOTE=Dronaroid;31568409]That would require you to be born inside an IKEA store.[/QUOTE] Nah, if you born in an IKEA, you would come out flat-packed, your parents would have to assemble you when they got home.
I cant begin to imagine how hilarious that would be to watch. 'And now this is our frost dragon' 'OHGODOHGODOHGOD' Everyone else in the room got pregnant.

[/quote] Video games are more important than babies. [editline]x[/editline] Also what kind of parents name their kid "Atari". I mean, really.
[QUOTE=Snuffy;31568972]Video games are more important than babies. [editline]x[/editline] Also what kind of parents name their kid "Atari". I mean, really.[/QUOTE] I think it's quite pathetic, if you're having a baby then a video game shouldn't be your first priority, I wonder how this kid is going to get raised, probably in a bad way as they didn't care for it when it was about to be born.
Atari's not so bad, it's a unique name sure, but it's still a practical name. If it was Warcraft or Oblivion or something, then yeah it'd be incredibly stupid.

[QUOTE=Skyhawk;31568413] Also, Atari? Really?[/QUOTE] Alright, cool, so I'm going to take that off my names for my children list. I can't wait to see if Xbox is going to be a girl or a boy
[QUOTE=Nikota;31569148]Or you know. Lovingly.[/QUOTE] Don't expect that from a couple that didn't care for the birth of their baby but would rather watch something about a videogame.
[QUOTE=Nikota;31569148]Or you know. Lovingly.[/QUOTE] The woman was going into labor. Instead of immediately going to the hospital, they chose to stay for the rest of the demo. What here makes you think this couple will be caring, responsible parents?
I knew it already. It is indeed that awesome. and poor kid, she should've named him Dovahkiin.
[QUOTE=Leaf Runner;31568707]It's not a ridiculous name, deal with it.[/QUOTE] Naming your kid after a gaming platform is pretty ridiculous.
Who the fuck names their child after a games console? (Except these idiots of course)
[QUOTE=WeekendWarrior;31569261]Naming your kid after a gaming platform is pretty ridiculous.[/QUOTE] Well, boo, get over it. You don't have to name your kid Bob, or Samantha, or Tom, or Kyle, or Tucker, or Denise, or Jordan, or whatever.
