So who wants to talk about the games and gaming stuff you love? Ill tell you a little bit about my gaming interest. (No Fanboy Flame crap please) My preferred console is Xbox 360 and my two Favorite developers are Bioware Corp. and Rockstar Games, which one day I hope to work for either as an animator. My top five games/series would have to be, in order of preference: 1.Mass Effect Series, 2. Red Dead Redemption 3.Fallout Series, 4. Bioshock Series, and 5. Half Life Series. These selections are from current gen only to make the decisions easier for me, but My list of great games goes down to the SNES. Also my fav Xbox Live Arcade Game as of now would I guess be Deadliest Warrior. Ive played a whole lot more then just these so if anybody wants to just chat about what I mentioned or tell me what your fav stuff is feel free!

    I loves me some survivial horror and adventure games, but anything with a really great story will get a thumbs up from me. A representative selection of some of my favorite games: Silent Hill series, Bioshock, ICO. Right now me and my sweetie are working through Overlord II.

    I play TF2 on PC a lot and I love to play CoD and GTA IV on Xbox. My sister knocked over my Xbox a few days ago and it scratched the disc really bad, so I have another copy coming in the mail already :).

    I only play World of Warcraft once in a great while. I like Heroes of Might and Magic series as well. Console games are beyond me unless they are Super Nintendo.
  • Just played gears of war 2 last night. Love me some online horde. Call of Duty series really drew me in too.

    Ocarina of Time is still un-touchable though, for epic games. Close to my heart.

    I go in spurts of playing video games and not.
    I have PS3 and Wii.
    I use the new UFC Personal Trainer on PS3.
    My gf doesn't like any games but Mario so if I want her to play we play the New Super Mario for Wii.
    If I play with my mom its Singstar. ;)
    My favs are NCAA football or Madden, car racing, rock band/guitar hero. I did like Batman Arkham City and Heavy Rain too.

    I have played many video games. I enjoy Dead Space. Pariah. Gears of War. Red Dead Revolver. I haven't played the new one. Actually I haven't played any of those newer games. Pariah might not have a new one though.. hm. Kane and Lynch 1 and 2.

    I refuse to play call of duty because that's ALL my husband plays. I love mystery games though. I'm such a nerd. YAY NANCY DREWWWW!

    I play a lot of video games (well, not so much now that the kid's here). Most recently Dungeon Siege 3. I'm a big fan of hack n slash rpgs. Played a ton of Diablo 2 back in the day.

    The game I play the most is Magic: the Gathering Online, which I also play in real life. I'm in school for programming, and my end goal is to work for Wizards programming MTGO.

    I am an MMORPG geek by nature. WoW, EQ2, Asheron's Call.

    Part of the reason why I am here is because of my gaming LOL

    @papastu: I love Valve, but now that they are finished with portal 2, they need to get on half life 3 lol

    @Saltorian: I love almost all Resident Evils main entries, favs being 2,3,4, and 5, and I cant wait to see what 6 is like. I never got t play ICO and Shadow of Collossus.

    @Avalonis: I love Bioware so much, I LOVE KotOR, Jade Empire, and especially Mass Effect, but Ive tried on numerous occasions to get into Dragon Age but never could because I really dislike their leveling system.. I wish I could because I know its story is great.

    @BAMA66: I think the Call of Duty games single player are great, but multiplayer is waaay overrated IMO, and people take things like that and Halo way to seriously. My fav online Multiplayer is Red Dead, though recently Lag Switching Hacker idiots are trying very hard to ruin it.

    @blueshred: Love GTA4 :D

    @Ocarina: with a name like that Im surprised you dont have a certain legend of zelda game mentioned lol. But what do you mean console games are Beyond you? If that means in terms of complexity, then im confused because I am fairly sure WoW is waay more complex then many other games.

    @Ajontheguitar: Yes Ocarina of Time is legendary and always will be.

    @ohwhataday: Red Dead Redemption is one of the greatest games of all time. The previous, while still good cannot hold a candle to it. If youre gonna check out any new game, I would highly reccommend it. You would not be dissappointed. And If you like mystery games, you must play L.A. Noire, greatest mystery game in recent memory. Both games are Rockstar Games :)

    @Blueshred: I really wanted to get that game Dead Space. still do

    @Jennjenn1974: Are you planning to pick up Star Wars the Old Republic?

    I'll just answer the same questions you did xD

    -My preferred console is also the Xbox360 but I have and play both 360 and PS3.
    -My favorite developers are probably Square Enix, Naughty Dog, Valve and Bioware.
    -My and My top five (newer) games/series are Final Fantasy XIII, Uncharted 1/2, Mass Effect 1/2, Portal 1/2 and Batman Arkham Asylum. Right now I am excited for ME3 FFXIII-2, Batman Arkham City, Uncharted 3, Gears of War 3, Mass Effect 3, Bioshock Infinite, The Elder Scrolls V ....but many of those I have to wait quite a long time for T_T
    -My favorite Arcade games released recently are Limbo and Tomb Raider: Guardian of light. We just downloaded Bastion last night...haven't tried it out myself yet though.

    Ohhhh Uncharted was FUNNN!! Cant wait for part 3. Also Dead rising 2 was kool too.
    Oh and Madden 2011 is coming up!

    What does everyone think of the upcoming Zombie game Dead Island!!

    I tend to play video games more in the colder months.....And im getting ready!
  • *jumps up and down* Me! Me! :D

    Favorite developers: Valve & 2K

    Top 5 games/series:

    1. Bioshock 1 & 2
    2. Dead Space 1& 2
    3. Borderlands
    4. Warcraft II & III (RoC & TFT)
    5. Okami

    My favorite gaming platform is the Xbox 360 though I used to do a lot of PC gaming before I got one so I'm kind of partial :) Sometimes I break out the PS2 and play older games like Persona 3 or Okami or DDR for exercise

    I'm a PC gamer but I do enjoy time spent on my PS3!

    I enjoy a good RPG every now and then but I am a CounterStrike Source child for life. I'm running a community for CSS and have had it for almost 3 years and sell mousepads, tshirts....ect. I also pride myself on the fact I haven't had to pay for our website/server expenses out of pocket since the 2nd month of starting the community. Everything else is paid for through donations!

    BIG PC gaming fan , Counter-strike Source ( clanned + in 3 leagues ) portal 2 , Team Fortress 2 , Modern Warfare ( clanned for this also )

    loving me PC games since Half-Life

    What clan are you in for CSS?

    @123456654321: You love many of the same games I do as well, I CANNOT WAIT for ME3, Skyrimm, and Arkham City. Bioshock Infinite too, though I will say FFXIII Ruined the series for me, sorry lol i know you prolly hate that i said that because you have lightning as ur prof pic lol. But I just abhorred the gameplay, story, level design, and characters. XII and IX are my favs, I mustve put over 200 hours into XII

    @Beerrunner: please no more flirty posts lol, but yea I think me and my girlfriend are gonna love Dead Island. My gf is a major zombie buff and I love em too.

    @pumpkinmoccasin: Bioshock is just great, cant wait for infinite. Do you think there venture out of Rapture was a good idea? I also love 2K Games, and they are owned by Take Two who also own Rockstar :D. Take Two knows how to work lol. I also loved borderlands at the time I had it, lesee what borderlands 2 has in store for us.

    @Salpica: I assume since you said you enjoy a good RPG every now and then that youve played Mass Effect ? lol

    I do not hate people for having a different opinion then my own......but obviously my opinion is right xD heheh

    ...but no, I loved the game. The battle system was Bad *kitten* imo. It was beautiful and had some of the best physics I have ever seen in a game. I really loved all the characters and it had one of the best endings to a game EVAR. I myself didn't mind at all that it was linear most the way through because I kind of like being pulled through a story at the creators pace. The only thing that bothered me about it was the over complicated menu systems.....but that's the Japanese for you, for some reason they seem to love doing things the hard way like that.
  • Love the xbox360. Pretty much addicted to the call of duty games right now :-p

    The graphics are great, but thats the only thing i liked about it. As for physics, im not sure if a FF game has much to do with that, so what did you mean? Cause physics wise, Red Dead is best at that for sure lol. All the things you love about XIII seems to be what I love about XII lol
  • I am looking to be a game artist/animator too. I got my BA in May so I am putting in apps right now. I spent a lot of time with the Super Nintendo as a kid. I love cute things, which Nintendo has a lot of. I've also played the online mmorpg Maple Story for 6 years, but I've been in a huge lull in the past year, just have too many more important things to focus on so am unable to justify playing it. :C

    Big gamer here. I have a PS3 and Wii, and also a beefed up PC for gaming. I'm an RPG addict and I've played alot of them. Favorite console out of all I've played is SNES when I was a kid. Man do I love that thing. Favorite game of all time? Man, I don't even know. My opinion changes frequently. I'll note a few I played ALOT: Earthbound, Tales of Symphonia, Final Fantasy Tactics, Final Fantasy VII, Secret of Mana, Breath of Fire II... man, good times.
