    How often do you play?

    When I get a new game, I become very immersed into it--I will play seemingly nonstop, after my responsibilities are taken care of, until I get a bit tired of the initial excitement and discovery of the game, and then I will take a bit of a break. However, that being said, I generally play about...

    Most 'useless' game ever?

    Oh wow--seriously? A GRASS SIMULATOR game? Does anything else happen at all? Does an ant crawl by? I have to look this up just for a laugh...

    Gaming Movies

    I thought Assassin's Creed was also pretty good, but, if you guys remember, there was this old Final Fantasy movie based loosely on the games, and I thought the animation in that and the storyline was pretty good--I can't remember when it came out, but I know it's definitely a while ago...

    Board Games

    I am still really crazy about Dungeons and Dragons, and we have a group who plays it every other week. Other than that, I grew up playing Monopoly and things like Chutes and Ladders. I got pretty good at chess there, for a while, and remember epic battles with my uncle in that arena.

    Is Elder Scrolls Online Worth Getting?

    I've been wondering about this as well. I have not yet played it myself, so I do not want to prematurely judge this game on any format or system just through heresay without trying it, but I will pass on that most of my gaming buddies who have played this were not too impressed with it and would...

    McDonalds vs Burger King?

    My roommate and I just had this debate--she wanted to go to Burger King for their chili dogs; whereas, I was craving the cheap double burgers from the MacDonald's value meal...it is probably a nostalgia thing, but I associate MacDonald's with my childhood, so we argued over what to get, and she...

    Longer or shorter story modes?

    I also prefer longer story modes and huge sandbox type games. I like developing a character over time and then returning at intervals to the world and seeing it new again after taking breaks from it. Sometimes, this can get a bit repetitive and boring, but I find that my own imagination can take...

    Scariest Game You Have Played

    For me, it was Silent Hill, and it literally gave me nightmares some evenings after I stopped playing it and went to bed. The jump out and fright moments in the game itself could put me on the edge, and I tried to play the game with all of the lights off and surround soon, but, when I was alone...

    Have you ever Fall in love with a game character?

    What a question, and this probably has a pretty predictable answer, but, yes, I think I had a bit of an unhealthy crush on Lara Croft when I was a young gamer...I am sure I am not the only post-pubescent straight male who experienced this at some point. I did grow out of it, thankfully, but, for...

    Last Game Played?

    Can you explain to me the addiction to Candy Crush and why so many people are absorbed into it? It just does not do it for me--that does not mean it isn't awesome, of course, but I would like someone to tell me why it is so appealing--

    Arcade games

    I love Centipede. I love the play of the spinning ball and the high-paced violence and action of the game. It gets my heart pumping and fills me with anticipation--

    Old v/s new

    I save all of my gaming consoles and games. I've been tempted so many ties to sell things, but I've been gaming, off and on, for over thirty years, and I am fond and nostalgic of different systems for different reasons--I know this is laughable, but I still have a Gamecube that I play Lord of...

    Whats your Favourite Type of Game?

    I love RPGs and games where I feel as if though i am exploring a world--sandbox games, I would say. I like games where I can develop the character over a period of time and create an imaginative personal history around the character as I play, I like to put myself into the character and to...

    Game Characters

    My favorite might be Lara Croft--it could be because I am a feminist? Also, she looks a lot like my first longterm girlfriend, so I have a soft spot for that. Her character pulls you in, and you want her to prevail as you play her. I like when a character is inspiring and tough and has a sense...

    Are there any games you can play over and over and never tire of?

    I honestly never get tired of Skyrim--it is my favorite sandbox game out there. To confess, I know there are other guys I could probably get into--my friends keep telling me to play Witcher, but I am still exhausting, if that is possible, the Skyrim world and experience, so I have not yet moved...

    HOW MANY GAME DO YOU PLAY A DAY AND HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?

    For me, and I am sure this resounds for the rest of us, this is different all of the time. I don't play everyday, but when I do, I do tend to play two or three games, at intervals, for a few hours. So, I guess the answer to the question is that I play, on the days that I do play, maybe two...

    Why do you actually enjoy gaming?

    I love playing games because it takes my mind off of my problems and gives me a sense of escape from the everyday stresses. I like to engage my imagination in many ways, and gaming gives me, with new releases of different concepts and formats on a constant basis, many opportunities to explore my...

    How many games do you own?

    I own about 20 games; however, my roommate has been collecting them for years, and she never throws anything away, so, in our home, there must be thousands of games, and I am not elaborating. She has a Playstation console that hasn't even been opened yet, for some odd reason--and dust is...

    Skyrim

    I've only played Skyrim on an X-Box on a huge flatscreen--courtesy of my roommate--so I think I might be a bit spoiled. In any case, I am not sure how another format could be better, unless I could play it in an IMAX theater or something, lol...

    WHY do you game?

    This is a great question-- I game for a variety of reasons, but I think the most prominent reason, for me, is for a means of escape. I work in a pretty high stress environment, and there is a type of mental energy which I must constantly exude to keep up with my job. Gaming access a different...
