    Are You Ready For Age Of Empires 4?

    Thanks for the head's up--I was not even aware this was coming out, and now I need to prepare for yet another ominous gaming addiction and abyss of time thrown away in front of the computer screen. Oh well, it is all in good fun, I guess. What is the theme for this one, by the way? I have...

    Are You Losing Interest Too?

    We must all learn to moderate, I think, and too much of anything, even a good thing, can be unhealthy for us. There are so many different forms of leisure and fun, and gaming, of course, is just one of them. I like to alternate my fun activities with different times and different friends and...

    What Console You Own Are You Surprised Is Still Working?

    My Gamecube is actually still working, and I love playing the old Lord of the Rings games on it from a decade ago. I know; I am a pathetic nerd.

    Best Xbox 360 Design you have seen?

    I really love this design, I really love this design actually. I have just a plain old XBox at home--nothing fancy at all, but this image is making me want to upgrade.

    What Console Do You Use The Most?

    I pretty much use my XBOX 360 the most and for everything--movies, media, blue rays, and, of course, gaming. I also use it to play cds. It is my one stop shopping console, and I love it. Oh yeah, I charge my phone on the thing too, now that I think of it.

    Last film you watched ?

    I just left the theater after having seen the latest in the Annabelle horror series--ANNABELLE: ORIGIN. It was absolutely terrifying, and my girlfriend clung to me the whole time--that part was nice. This movie is full of scary gags and many new and terrible approaches to horror whicch will keep...

    How does gaming affect your personal life?

    Gaming really does not affect my personal life in a good or bad way, but I do it at times and in a way where no one else is really involved. I do not game a whole lot, so it never interferes with my relationships. I guess you could say that it affects my personal life in a positive way because...

    Do you ever feel bad at killing someone in games?

    Actually, no, I do not feel bad for killing anyone in a game. A lot of games require your character to kill in order to survive. I don't just kill characters for some sort of bloodlust fun, but I do enjoy the thrill of the fight when I succeed in destroying a group of monsters or zombies.

    Next Part In The Series That You Are Looking For?

    I always look forward to any installment or sequel in the God of War series. I love the storylines, and growing up reading about mythology, this game is always intriguing to me.

    Your Thoughts On The Rise Of Facebook Games?

    I actually did not know that there were facebook games until I saw this forum. I looked into it, and honestly, they are not fit to my taste. I see how they could pass the time and be entertaining, but when I make time to game, I prefer my console in my mancave and a good RPG to get sucked into.

    How often do you buy new games?

    I only buy new games a few times a year. This is mainly because of my work schedule, so I do not have a whole lot of time for gameplay. Also, my preference is for RPG games, so there are really only a few of those that pique my interest every year. Also, games like this, sandbox games you could...

    Question What are rebellions?

    I am also new here and was curious about what rebellions were--I know I can research this myself, but I had just not gotten around to it yet. This forum was useful to me, and if I can accumulate enough rebellions, then I will definitely use them for game purchases. I need more games on my PC...

    Do you like to play strategy games?

    I definitely enjoy playing strategy-based games due to the challenges they provide me as a thinker. Also, when your strategy does prevail, and you took a risk at trying it, whatever the game it is you are playing, it feels quite rewarding. I also was addicted to Age of Empires for quite...

    Any Good Detective Games?

    This was a cool post and a good question. I don't think I have ever really played a detective game, per se, although I know a lot of games require you to utilize skills like a detective. This post makes me want to try some of these out, especially the Sherlock Holmes one...cool.

    What Are Those Games That Can Boost Intelligence

    Of course, I think that any games which have difficult puzzles can force a gamer to use critical thinking skills more than those just plain "shoot-em'-up" games. I think that even something like Tetris can boost one's intelligence. Also, those civilization games which require strategy and long...

    Are You Losing Interest Too?

    I think that maybe all gamers go through stages like this? There are times in my life when I would game nonstop, and then, for whatever reason, wake up one day and just not feel like it for months. Right now, I am traveling and am in New York City, and this place is so stimulating that gaming...

    If you were stuck on an island and only could have one game, what would it be?

    At this point, I would give up gaming altogether, and start figuring out how in the world I was going to get off the island. I would hope that the motor skills that gaming honed in me would help me to survive, but in this situation, I would try to figure out how to make the console into...

    Moments in games where you just want to smash the controller

    We mod-ed our Skyrim to the hilt, and every now and then, because of this overload, the game will freeze up at a crucial moment when I have forgotten to save or the auto-save didn't catch what awesome thing I just did. When this happens, I want to throw the controller through a plate glass...

    Game add ons

    We don't ever buy the ad-ons, but we definitely mod everything out that we can on our games. A lot of times, you can end up with a jiggy mod too that likes to freeze up your gameplay at the worst times, but I guess that comes with the territory.
