Casuals, or hardcore; console or pc, what genre? Traditional or Video Gamers, Max difficulty or casual? Online or solo? Let's GO! I'll start!

I've played a few "traditional games". Played a good bit of "Warhammer" and 40k, my fair share of D&D... Grinding through "Gears of War 3" on hardcore. Borderlands is one of my staples, Went through a LOT of angry birds, until my phone had to take a factory reset. GO! GO! GO! =]

I've owned every system since the atari 2600. All the nintendo's console to handheld (still have the original and 100+ games), sega, xbox and all three playstations. Finally gave up my xbox 360, got tired of paying to play online. Now I'm all about the PS3, have two of the and play all genre from 3D dot to battlefield 3 to Saints Row 3.

Let's see, Xbox, PS2, Gamecube, FC Twin (plays 8bit & 16bit Nintendo) got an old Gameboy around somewhere, and of course my computer & tablet. Obviously I mostly do older games; my favorites are the Lego games-the next one I need to get is Lego Harry Potter Years 5-7.

I've only played the lego star wars games.

This is by far my favorite thread I've found that I haven't started...I don't know where to begin! Now I by no means have had as many consoles as AzIrish, but I have owned or played the following:

Gameboy
Gameboy Advance
Gameboy SP (it counts even though it technically played the same games as the latter)
Nintendo DS
PlayStation
PlayStation 2
Xbox
Xbox 360 (3 of them :p)
Nintendo 64
Nintendo Gamecube
DOS (yeah that's right)
PC

But my staple in gaming is my Xbox 360. I am a Mac guy now (don't crucify me!!) so I stay with consoles. I love Squaresoft/Square Enix and Final Fantasy. Only I, II, III, VII, VIII, and IX. X was okay. I love Bethesda Game Studios. Their games are awesome. I love RPGs. I've played Skyrim almost 220 hours between two characters. Fallout 3 at least 400 hours between 5 characters and three Xbox LOL. 200 hours between 2 characters. I love any RPGs because I love the ability to roam and make decisions etc. The best part is how you're rewarded for exploration.

Naming characters alone will last me about an hour mainly because I think of their name and their background story first i.e.

Wretched Gretchen (Skyrim) - A woman who has been played by too many Nords and Elves. She is tired of men who don't commit and has embrace her "Wretched" cold heart. Men in Skyrim be wary. Right now level 45...656 armor rating.

Kathleen Ferguson (Fallout: New Vegas) - A woman who survived the bombings. Her husband and only child were killed in the blast and she is now a harlot. She loves all the men she encounters and is finally embracing her new single life. She wears glasses to hide her seductive eyes.

Reign Fitzmichael (Fallout: New Vegas) - An elderly gentlemen who left his family to explore the west...then the bombs dropped. Somehow his fragile body survived and he now is a serial killer in the Wasteland.

Yeah..and you may ask do I keep their themes throughout the whole game...yes.

In college, my ENTIRE FRAT played DOTA except me. Yes..frat and DOTA you read that right. FPS used to be my life in high school until I realized that "prestiging" in COD did nothing for me in real life...Five times prestiging is a enough for me...forever. BUT I do buy COD for Nazi Zombies...I am a beast..sort of. Level 26

Pc gamer here. Mostly into FPS(BF3,MW3,Medal of Honor). Currently stuck on DOTA2. Lol. Only played Skate on the xbox360 apart from pc games.

@AzIrish you Automatically get one awesome point for the "Irish" in your user name!

I've had Every Nintendo console aside from gamecube and the 3DS. Had an Intellivision II(My grandpa threw it out! =[ ), a ps2 that I left at my (then) gf's sister stole and pawned for (no joke) crack money...and the ULTIMATE GAME CONSOLE (which I regrettably sold...) The one and only, SEGA DREAMCAST! When I had a decent PC, Played a few Games, Star Wars online(With my 'Raggle Fraggle, the abominable snow wookie!), But mostly Planetside(Johnny Knoxville, of Section 8 Blue). CAN'T WAIT FOR THE SECOND PLANETSIDE!!

That's all I can think of right now... =/

Wretched Gretchen... Link could kick that booty into the ground any day of the week Just sayin.

Lol. Prestiging in COD is seriously leading it to no where. FPS gets repetitive after a while and you get bored fast and the servers are packed with lil kids and hackers. Making it unplayable.

I used to hate dota. But when i see valve releasing a beta with those awesome graphics, i knew i had to jump on the boat. Lol on the entire frat playing dota.

Medal of honor is releasing a new one soon. And black ops 2 is kinda total recall. Futuristic warfare is kinda kiddy though if it's on a game.

You are my type of gamer, if I had more time any from gaming an mod's I would have posted nearly the same stats. Can't stop playing FF games. Skyrim is so awsome.
Here is a few mod's I've made look closely you'll see the Wii mod. Next is the ps3 controller that vapes and plays

All up in your grill..
I have an xbox 360 that sits and collects dust. I payed 60 bucks for skyrim and played it for a few hours a couple weeks ago. It seemed like a cool game. But I don't have that kind of free time so I'm not sure I will get anywhere. (220 hours? ouch!)

I have a wii covered in cobwebs. I have 4 diablo 2 accounts loaded with godly characters. I am going to wait to get 3 until they patch it a few times. I am not a fan of the cartoony Disney-esque graphics on wow and was uber disappointed to see that the new diablo will follow suit. I like video games. But these days I am too busy playing the game of capitalism to be good at any of them.
