Any other gamers out there?

My husband is probably more of an avid gamer than I am...

But, as I mentioned in a post earlier, I do play some World of Warcraft. I'm also quite addicted to Rock Band. Looooooooove to play the drums on Expert. It's a pretty good arm workout if you really get into it. There are some other miscellaneous games I play from time to time.

Are YOU a gamer?

What sort of games do you play?

I'm terrible, but that doesn't stop me from playing. :-)

I was a gamer but my lifestyle right now doesn't allow time for such activities.

When I was gaming I played primarily RPG type games (never online games - those skeeze me out) and Need for Speed! I'm a huge Need for Speed fan!

I used to play WoW, and now play Second Life.

I play a lot. Guild Wars, Perfect World, Sims, a few more and Second Life (though i would not call the later a game or something to play but that is another story *G*)

The hubby and I are definitely gamers.

We have a subscription for Lord of the Rings Online, but I haven't played that since December.

Currently we're in the middle of a second play through of Mass Effect 2.

We've also started DragonAge, Assassin's Creed, Batman: Arkham Asylum... Played and finished Uncharted 1 and 2... We also play Rock Band (I sing, he plays lead guitar) but not so much lately. Looking forward to Heavy Rain, BioShock 2, StarCraft 2 (if and when that ever gets released) and Final Fantasy 13. So many good games, so little time. :brokenheart:

When we play, it's only for one or two hours a night. We try to keep it reasonable.

This makes me exceptionally happy. lol. :happy:

Star Wars was a HUGE influence on me when I was a kid... it's what inspired me to want to be a writer (which I am not yet, but will be soon... as soon as I retire from my current job in April. lol. )

That quote has gotten me through a lot.

Me! I am a self-admitted gamer geek.

I love my LOTR stuff.
I play a lot of text-based RPG on facebook...Hammerfall, The Summoning, Castle Age, Legion Quest...

Basically if it involves swords elves dragons dwarves and castles...I am THERE!

Far Cry, Mario Kart, Wii Bowling (it's very competitive in my house), Rock Band, and Second Life. I've played but not liked: WoW and Starcraft. Though I don't do much anymore since most of my time after work is spent on my Second Life websites and then exercising.

VIdeo games were a big part of my life. FPSs for me. Hosted and won many a Halo tourney. Halo 1,2,&3, All the Call of Duty, Half Life 1&2 and its many spinoffs, Left For Dead, Resident Evil(3rdperson) Gears of War. Though I am no longer good at em. I also like a good rpg, Fallout 3, Mass Effect, Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic1&2, Elderscrolls 3&4, Diablo 1&2, Baldurs Gate 1&2. I also like a good real time strategy game. Starcraft(waiting on 2!!!!!!!) Command and Conquer(too many to count).

My BF and I used to be reallly into WoW, ahhhh memories! :happy: We had a great time, played A LOT for about six months, and then cancelled our subscriptions (can't even remember why now). We subscribed about 6 months later, but couldn't get back into it. I miss it, well, I miss the fun we used to have.

Currently my own game obsession is "Scramble" on Facebook, which hardly makes me a gamer! :laugh: Do love it though. It's like Boggle!

I can't believe I forgot to mention Halo and Knights of the Old Republic! Yes!! LOVE those games.

I really like the D&D styled games: Baldur's Gate 1&2, Icewind Dale, NeverWinter Nights 1&2... they are SO massively time consuming though -- the hubby and I haven't managed to finish a single one so far.

I love pretty much any game that comes out of Bioware -- Knight's of the Old Republic and Mass Effect are my absolute FAVORITES. I will admit to a teeny geek crush on Kaiden/Carth (Mass Effect character/ KOTOR character... same voice actor). :embarassed: Teehee.

Been a big MMORPG gamer for ever.

Used to be a HUGE City of Heroes and City of Villans guy (ran my own SG and everything) but stopped playing because after a while, well, you can only fight PvP so many times before you get bored in that game.

I have been playing Eve Online for quite a while, that game is MASSIVE, and pretty cool. Hard to learn though. If you like space games, it's very good, very multi-player, and very expansive.

I'm drooling waiting for SC2, I actually made it pretty far up the ladder in Starcraft, I LOVED starcraft, and still load it up every once and a while to play just to keep the Pwnage skills up to par.

I played a Tauren Druid up to lvl 45 or so in WoW, but got bored with that eventually, WoW was a big dissapointment to me after City of Heroes, graphics were slightly better, but the gameplay was pretty clunky by comparison.

I played Guild Wars for a while, liked it, but I was still pretty deep into CoH at the time and never really got into it since it wasn't quite as fun (I just love the idea of superhero powers for some reason).

I thought about buying Aion, as it looked visually very cool, but I figured I didn't want to start another game then quit it the minute SC2 comes out.

that's about it for now.

I play World of Warcraft. I have to actively curb my tendency to start playing and not get anything else done! I think I've achieved a pretty good balance with it as of late.

I'm a big gamer! Not computer games but console ones.I've got Xbox 360, Wii, Gamecube (rendered useless now since the wii) and a DS to take to work with me. I'm addicted to the wii fit. And I LOVE anything Need for Speed or Lara Croft Tomb Raider. I have rockband but I only like to play it when I have a group of people.

What server?

SHBoss1673

By the way, if you ever played any games like Homeworld or Galactic Empires, Eve is awesome (and free for 30 days). If anyone wants to come play, I'd be more than happy to mentor you a little bit.

Nice thing about Eve? Only 1 server, and No Bots allowed (strictly enforced).

I'm tempted. Worried that my game addictive nature will get me stuck there, but tempted nevertheless.
