Any Gamers Here?

I was hooked on WoW for quite a while, but since I started college I haven't been able to play. My brother was majorly obsessed with the game up until a fewmonths ago. I'm happy to say that I wasn't eve as bad as he was about it :P I still like games...I'll play just about anything. I love the 'Tycoon' games on the PC and the 64 is, IMO, the best gaming system ever!! I got my own PS2 to bring to for Christmas last year, but my brother has all the games at homw, so I'm working on my own collection a bit :P

This is an older thread, but it's a gamer thread too. ^_^ Lots of WoW ppl :D

I enjoy a good MMO, I just can't stand the WOW crowd. It is a great game, and Blizzard is one of my favorite game designers, but I just couldn't get past the immature player base :rolleyes: . I been playing Vanguard for a while, but just started playing LOTRO and think it is the best MMO to come out for a while.

I used to play a lot of Guitar Hero II, and I still indulge in it every once in a while, just to get frustrated at Hangar 18, or to fail Jordan about 50% through :D .

I used to game a lot more than I do, just too many things going on anymore.....

I've gamed for years off and on primarily PC gaming as I work in the IT field. There are/where a bunch here who played WoW and some old posts about it. I quit playing ... I can't remember how long ago now and I "encouraged" my wife to drop it at least for the summer so we had one less bill. I play FPS but am pretty sucky LOL, also like RTS most recently C&C: Tiberium Wars awesome graphics especially on a nice big wide screen LCD. A friend of mine has a LAN party every few months where we run little tournaments as well as as just playing for fun a variety of different games. Sometimes they turn out to be more of a social gathering than gaming which is fine...its really just about all of us getting back together.

I am actually getting away from games somewhat and especially for the summer. It got to the point where I would be behind a computer(s) 9-10hrs a day at work, go home have dinner and within an hour or two be right back there on the computer again. I was wasting my life away or so it kinda felt. My wife and I have become much more active with regular exercising and spending more time outside as well as with our animals. This summer I've even gone so far as to leave my computer at work (laptop) so unless I specifically have a computer at home I'm building or working on the temptation is not there. Wow sounds like an addiction doesn't it! I may have been or it may just be my getting older and realizing there is life outside of the digital world! I'm sure once winter hits again I'll spend more evenings in the warmth behind the screen playing some game or working on my webhosting stuff or a forum etc.

I play everything but mostly PC. I used to be into the WoW and Starcraft group but now i'm more into FPS like counter-strike or day od defeat. I play my 360 alot too but still, PC tops it with fps games and because I can modify the games. Not a fan of Halo because the combat is completely unreal. I just watch my friends play and they jsut jump around and shoot at each other until on dies after 100 clips. Its kinda rediculouse(sp) when the Halo games have futuristic armor and defense but their guns suck when compared. I'm not sure why the clip isnt bigger to easily take down a persons shield AND kill them :rolleye2: . If you want real combat, play Gears of Way. AMAZING

I am huge gamer. Big fan of Halo, Halo 2, Age of Empires, Command and Conquer, and a HUGE WOW junkie as well :D

I am terribly addicted to Guild Wars, just can't get enough of it. I have quit everything but Guild Wars, am on it almost every night.
Am I the only one?

I was reading the WoW website today to see if I should buy it. I have a friend who refuses to leave his house now that his computer's fixed (going on 7 months now). All he does is play WoW, so I might have to check it out. I really only ever got into PS/PS2 Tony Hawk series, Tekken series and the Tenchu series.

Well, at the moment playing Forza Motorsport 2 on the xbox 360, its ace!

I LOVE Guild Wars, but I played so much that I kind of wore myself out. Not playing very much right now because I'm a full time student and I have a full time job.

I'm also a Game Art and Design major. So, YEAH, I play games. :D

I have a 360, PSOne, and a Laptop, so i play a little of this and that...

360- XBOX Live, HALO, HALO 2, Oblivion, Gears of War

PSOne - Final Fantasy IX, and VII

Laptop - WoW, of course!!!! Played for about 6 months everynight, and then i got bored, i don't know why? But i got about 3 toons to lvl 50, and just got bored!!! so i am on from time to time, basicly to do a quest and then i'm off. Just so my characters aren't inactive for to long... Vek'Nilash Server, Night Elf Hunter O.o
