I definitely prefer the old Final Fantasy games as well, but, to me, the characters sort of always had this look about them, so it was something that I just came to expect from this franchise. I think that, despite the appearance of the characters which can be off-putting, the general...

Jack, I'm with you--I use my phone so much for personal and professional business that I barely have time during the day, unless I am stuck in a waiting room or something, or a similar scenario, to play games on my Android. I stick to playing games on my different consoles in my man-cave at...

Personally, I'd have to say that I prefer the console. I totally appreciate the benefits of PC formats, customization, and updates; however, I keep my gaming world separate from my personal computer for business and time-management reasons, and this creates a way for me not to be tempted to open...

I actually find that I can play HALO again and again, and I really like Mortal Combat type games just for the mindless fun and violence and the competitor modes with friends and family.

I've dreamed of Destiny a few times and of fighting hordes of armored Titans and the Cabal, etc. I guess some games can worm their way into our subconscious and really become part of our psyche for a minute...

I've raged quit on Call of Duty a few times...I hate to admit this...but I am guilty. I don't like to throw him under the bus, but my nephew rags out so bad and cusses and throws such a fit that my sister rounds him from playing his games for days until he proves he can calm down and act...

Thanks, everyone, for these suggestions. As a player who is returning to gaming after many years, this helps me in building my collection back up and in finding new gaming options on my pretty fixed budget.

I think that it is possible, depending on the person, to possibly get addicted to anything, really. However, I think you should play your games as much as you please until it starts to affect you physically, professionally, emotionally, intellectually, or otherwise. I have seen friends, however...

I think I get the most addicted to RPG games as well. I let my imagination get sucked into the world and the environment of the game. I am currently getting stuck in the world of Witcher, and there are days I have to force myself not to play so that I can stay disciplined and complete more of my...

My roommate recently turned me on to Fallout, and I must admit that it is pretty addictive. Obviously, you and i have some of the same preferences--I am an Elder Scrolls enthusiast, and Fallout also appeals to my sense of epic adventure and the POV experience of a new and fascinating...

goldlady--i totally agree with you here about escaping from reality--the interactive quality of gaming is a hugely different experience than just binge-watching a Netflix series or renting three Red Boxes to pass the time or to escape. I recently went through a bad breakup, and I think there...

I am a huge fan of this franchise, but I have not yet played the new one--I am totally intrigued by the Norse mythology angle, though--I love the Norse pantheon, so this really has me interested enough to buy this game at this point--

I have good memories of partying with my friends and girlfriends when a Grand Theft Auto would release. We would laugh and bond around this game, and make fun of it to a great degree, but it was always an excuse to listen to "bad" music, drink a few beers, and run around either crashing things...

I have not yet seen the Silent Hill movie, but I do love the game--I think that, after reading this forum, I will look into it. Is it as scary as the game itself?

Actually, no I do not. I am a bit of a purist when it comes to this, mainly because I game a lot at other places and friends' houses. I don't want to get spoiled on certain gear that I have to haul around in order to be competitive, so I just use the basics so I feel like I can show up and play...

I've also never heard of this game, but you have gotten me a bit interested in this--like the books in my library, I will probably die before I read them all, so now I have to add yet another game to my list to try to play on limited time, lol.

I feel the same way about games like Pac Man, Galaga, Space Invaders, etc. I love these old games, and playing them is an homage to my childhood, and they bring back memories for me, but, that being said, I think there is some merit in playing these rote pattern games in terms of developing...

I am not familiar with STEAM, so thanks for mentioning this here, and I am going to look into that and into humblebundles to start collecting more games. I need to broaden my gaming experience--I was a huge gamer when I was younger, then got away from it, so now I am just getting back into...

I guess I sound like a broken record here, but, once again, I have to sound in about Skyrim. Maybe it is because I need to play more games, lol, but I still have not exhausted my enjoyment with this game. My friend keeps telling me I should play Witcher, but he is afraid I will disappear forever...

I generally order my games online--I do buy them used sometimes, if there is a good deal or find at a Gaming outlet or thrift store--but usually I order them online and I tend to budget a month or so out for upcoming games which I have been excited about or anticipating playing.
