Ok I love playing games - Super Mario is my ultimate favourite but I have toyed with 'The Movies'. 'The Lord of the Rings' things, Zuma and Diner Dash. My husband bought a Wii - I am now addicted to tennis and bowling!

If you too are a gamer come on in and tell all!
 
I'm adicted to the old Mega-Drive games, Sonic and the like, childish stuff really... I have a Mega-Drive emulator on this PC and a stack of old Sega game files... My fav at the moment is hellfire

I dont have Sonic but a friend did years ago! I almost wrestled him to the floor to play! I always won!
 
I am an addict. I confess. I prefer adventure games on PS or NGC like LOTR or Rygar. But I am also addicted to Jewel Quest, Jewel Quest solitaire, and Zuma.

I may need a 10-step intervention.
 
Oh this is super cool :D

I just finished Gears of War not too long ago--I totally fell in love with this FPS, and I can't wait for its sequel!

My all time favorites are all the Fatal Frame games, Morrowind, Morrowind: Blood Moon, and Morrowind: Oblivion, (RPG's). I love Lumines and Astro Pop (Puzzle games). :)

I'll probably be jumping into Dark Watch pretty soon :D


EDIT:

My husband and I are so addicted to Wii Bowling too!! :D

LOTRs is a fav of mine as is Zuma. I dont have a gaming console apart from the new Wii - which I am beginning to get addicted to though I cant get to grips with Zelda!

Dont go for the intervention - just play!

Heh :)

If you really like puzzle games like Zuma, you'll totally get addicted to the likes of Astro Pop real quick!

I forgot about Zelda. Many hours wasted... errr... spent on that one.

*perks ears*

Astro Pop? What's that? I love puzzle games.
 
This was a top of the line gaming rig when I built it a few years ago.

I'm more into first person shooters and action games like Half Life, Deus Ex, Planetside, Grand Theft Auto (only on PC), and such.

I do have some other types of games, like Ricochet: Lost Worlds and Track Mania: Nations (awesome racing game).

I have been playing games since way back in the 70s when my father bought us an Intellivision. I loved Night Stalker, Video Poker, Donkey Kong (it was a typo, was supposed to be Monkey Kong, but no one corrected it), Tripple Action (the battle tanks were hilariously fun), and Pandamonium.

Later on we got an Atari, after the Super Nintendo was already out (we were a broke family fora while there). I played River Raid, California Games, Missile Commad, Adventure, Solaris, and anything else I could get my hands on.

When I had a job of my own I bought a Sega Genesis, near the end of it's run. I played Sewer Shark, Sonic, Sonic 2, Night Trap and Doom (for the 32 adapter).

Then I got a PC and played even more games, a list of which can be found up top ;)

Yeah, I'm a gamer :D
 
Let's see. I'm a major Sims 2 fan. I love the Civ games as well as the Age of Empires games. I can play hours of Zuma too.

On the console front, I'm a Nintendo girl (currently Gamecube). I bought Twilight Princess, but sadly work's been getting in the way, so i haven't had the time needed to devote to it :( Oh well, spring break's only a month and a half away.

It's a cute little puzzle game--a Pop Cap game, I think (if you have an XBox 360 you can buy it via there...), and you have a little ship with a little guy and you follow a sort of story line for each pilot by blowing up columns of colored bricks.

Every time you advance, you get a little more of the story and your special attack improves. It's a nice game--really relaxing & challenging too :)

Love it! I remember Donkey Kong on Game Boy!!

Yeah, just leave out your Nintendo 64, with Mario 64, Shadows of the Empire, Battle Tanx, Gondeneye, Wave Race, F Zero X, and a few Mortal Combats.

Dreamcast, with Soul Calibur, Shenmue, more fighting games, and I can't remember these games too well...

And an Xbox for Sunmue 2 and Halo. I also bought Time Splitters 2, but never opened it...
 
Also, I had a morbid fascination with Trauma Center on the Nintendo DS :D

Anyone remember the old Infocom games??

Yep. I always seriously sucked at them too.

I know of the Infocom games--Zork and the like. Never played 'em though :( That was more my husband's thing and I think he's played everything he can get his hands on.

Never heard of the Infocom games - maybe just US?

I love all the Zorks. And Leather Goddesses of Phobos. There are tons of them. Nord and Bert - very cute.

Maybe. They are old PC games, all interactive text primarily. A few had some ancient graphics. I discovered them in the 80s.
