    Love playing video games. Haven't had as much free time to play them as I did before I started working out and losing weight, but I really enjoy playing online and offline. I used to be a pretty hardcore PC gamer, but mostly play on the Xbox 360 now. My gf is a big gamer, too, so she is more than happy to dash off to the other room and rack up achievements on our second Xbox.

    Gamer girls rock!

    I used to be super geeky thorought high school but now I feel more like a jock hahaha but I certainly love some games. Right now I am playing Mortal Kombat on my Ps3 maybe 5-7 hours a week. I don't have much time nowadays. I am also waiting for Twisted Metal and Metal Gear. I will definitely get those.

    Totally a gamer! Spent a good part of yesterday playing black ops:) And spent pretty much all summer playing Red Dead Redemption! I was soo bummed out when I finished that game!

    WOW looks super interesting/addicting! Im to chicken to try it out because I know I'd become addicted to it.

    I admit, WoW is a lot of fun. I can lose hours to that game, but right now I only get to play on the weekends because of school and homework. I don't know that the video games are what got me here, but they definitely contributed to my inactivity. Everything in moderation, right? I have no intention of giving it up, as it is a way for me to get away from some of the stress of the real world, if only for a couple hours.... *looks at her desk piled with books and homework*

    WoW is SUPER addictive, so I only sit down to it when I know I have free time to spend on it. I go through spurts though - I'll want to play nonstop for about a month, then I won't care at all for a bit, then I'll jump back into it and be obsessive again. I think I burn myself out during my "on" phases! ;-) Glad to see I am not alone here though! Between exercise, school, and trying to work when I can while balancing family things, I really don't have a lot of time to put into my video games anymore (probably a good thing...). I do still love my Wii though, and my 3DS. The XBox is really cool (especially the Kinect), but I'm a Nintendo fangirl from way back ;-). Feel free to add me if anyone so chooses lol.

    I have been teased with the beta Gears Of War 3 and it just makes me salivate. I really wish they would come out with a new Rainbow 6 game. Lately I have been hooked on Pocket Legends for my phone.

    I'm a huge gamer. I've always been a purely console gamer, but last year I started WoW. Haven't played it in a month or two though, Cata isn't all the great imo and the people on my realm were getting old. We also have Rift but my husband plays that more than I do. I play different types on the console, my favorite games are Bioshock though I've played both over and over so many times.
