No. Never. I just don't find them intellectually stimulating enough. Which is funny, because I like coloring and that's not any more stimulating. But give me Mario or Donkey Kong and I'll be dead to the world.0

Erm, I'm a cross-platform gal: I have in my house right now: SNES, Nintendo 64, Gamecube, Wii, Wii U, Xbox 360, Playstation 2, Playstation 3, 3ds, DS and a Gameboy SP all lovingly used, lol.

Casual or hardcore?: In between.
How many hours/week: about 14-30+, work schedule permitting

Majora's Mask coming for the 3ds... so much excitement in my house right now, lol0 -
Yes - and those that call it a "waste of time" should probably re-examine their time watching TV/movies - it's just entertainment, folks. We all need it in one way or another.
What platform do you prefer?
PS3
Favorite genre?
Totally depends on the mood, but because of my lifestyle (see below), I prefer something I can just pick up and put down without having to think much.
Are you casual or hardcore?
Casual - I used to be a very heavy gamer in my teens. Nowadays, I'm self-employed, work 10-14 hours/day, train in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu 10-15 hours/week, and try to pretend I have a social life. I haven't turned on my PS3 in weeks, though I hope to this weekend, if my to-do list gets under control.
How many hours do you play a week?
On a good week, 2-3. Most weeks, zero. But if I'm between projects, or injured and can't train at the gym, I binge pretty hard.
Favorite game of all time?
Such a tough question... Diablo 2, or Starcraft. Maybe Morrowind - all three have eaten hundreds, if not thousands of hours of my teenaged-life.
Single or multiplayer?
Single player - I don't need 14 year olds telling me what they did with my mother last night, or screeching homophobic slurs at me.
Do you read gaming magazines?
Not since the 90's.0 -

I've never been much more than a casual player, but since I got serious about weight loss / fitness, I find the bulk of my spare time goes towards that. I doubt that I've played more than 10 hours this year. My favorites were Call of Duty, Medal of Honor, Splinter Cell, and Fallout 3.0

I miss the old Warcraft (Pre-WOW) games. I also miss a really ancient game I used to play as a kid called Kings Quest. Also currently obsessing over Banished.
