This is basically a thread to give additional info about you as a gamer.

I am sort of a lone gamer so I almost never have anyone to play with. As a result, I stay away from games that focus on multiplayer like Mario Party. I like and will try all sorts games as long as they aren't gory and violent *cough*COD and Halo*cough*. Whenever I have a lot of freetime, I will play video games for hours. However, I do stop and takes breaks to eat meals and other things. Whenever I get frustrated I seem become hostile and aggressive when playing, usually resulting in bad or hateful language towards enemies, bosses or even certain NPCs.

Lastly, I have became so interested in video games that I want to become a video game developer myself. In fact, I have bags with papers that have my video game ideas written on them.
 
I used to play games every free minute I had when I was younger. I passed up so many social opportunities in both primary and high school because I'd rather stay home and play video games. I was even so renowned in one game community that the company even contacted me to play an early demo of one of their releases and post a review of it online.

Nowadays I'm a much more casual gamer. I only play a select few games, but those few games I do play I'm utterly obsessed with. However, I value other aspects of life a lot more now - I'd rather go out for dinner or a drink than stay in and play by myself. "It's just a game" after all...

I prefer single player games. In fact, AC:NL is the only game I play with an online feature.

I am an open gamer. By that I mean, I will play any game of any genre or style so long as the experience is solid. I am pretty critical of games despite my personal feelings so it's very common for me to both like a game while vocalizing its flaws or dislike a game while acknowledging its merits. I'm a huge Sony fan (since 1997) as I feel their IPs (especially this gen, what with Infamous, Uncharted, LBP, etc.) and exclusives are often miles above other console publishers'. I don't let gaming consume me--I'm an avid reader and writer--but it's certainly a hobby.
 
I'm a kiddie gamer :<

I tend to like games that are made for 7 year olds.
Like Mario Kart, Mario Party, Animal Crossing, Toontown. ETC.
 
A year or so ago I used to be super into gaming. I was a huge TF2 and L4D player, I accumulated an ungodly amount of hours on Steam in the span of three months. But then school and all that took over and I never managed to get back into it.

Now I'm definitely a casual gamer. I love games like Professor Layton, Mario Kart, anything from the Super Mario franchise and my all-time favorite game is Bejeweled (lolsrsly). I've played that game since I got my first computer however many years ago and I still play it to this day, I will never get tired of it~
 
I used to be way into MMORPG games and would spend a lot of time playing them but I have since become a casual gamer. I'm beta testing a new mmorpg game and it looks to be fun if they could fix the targeting system and certain bugs. When it comes out, I plan to play it.
 
When it comes down to it, I like to practice alone, but I like to play with others. About 75% of the time I find it too boring to play all by myself after awhile.
 
I can go from Pokemon and Kirby to God of War and Resident Evil. Just depends on what I want to play. Kinda hardcore, kinda casual, but I play by myself 99% of the time.
 
I'm a hardcore Zelda fan, and always will be XD
Most of my time is New Leaf and Smash Bros. Melee. I had SSBBrawl, but my Wii hates it x_x
I've written a lot of comics about Smash Bros; none really of the fighting stuff, but more of the outside friendships; mostly Ganondorf and Bowser XD
 
Hardcore gamer... Well I do play TF 2 and Dota aside from those games, well mostly I play Nintendo games so yeah.
I'm a girl so yeah got any problem sir? :rolleyes:

I've never really considered myself a gamer so I really don't know what to label myself as :\
 
I dunno... Maybe an open gamer? I'll play any game as long as it has a good gameplay experience. I also like pc gaming but my mom won't let me have more pc games.
 
I'm a restricted Nintendo gamer. I have a PS2 that I never play, and all the games I play are from Nintendo.
The systems I have are N64, GameCube, Wii, and all Nintendo handhelds after the GameBoy Color.
 
Probably an open gamer. I like all genres except for sports games. I'll only play sports games if they're Mario related, lol. You can pretty much slap Mario into anything and it's guaranteed to be fun. I mainly play all types of RPGs/Adventure and fighting games though.
 
Im more the type of gamer that enjoys a good story line and a sense of accomplishment. So games like Dragon age and Final fantasy along with the zelda franchise are more my cup of tea, but i like to play MMORPG's as well when i have the fun i think playing with other people is fun.
 
I'm a Nintendo gamer, company wise. I like playing with others on teams, against others. I like Pokemon and Legend of Zelda quite a lot. I can be an interdependent gamer, however I do like multiplayer because you can brag and show off. But I like teams.
 
I'm a RPG gamer. I love RPGs of all types on all platforms and have played way too many to list. I like D&D style, anime style, Final Fantasy style, sim style -- any style! RPGs are the best!

I'm also a competitive gamer in any type of multiplayer game, whether local or online. I play to win! I greatly enjoy team play and PvP in MMOs and usually take the top rankings in whatever I go after.

Really though I enjoy games of all types. Single player, multiplayer, offline, online, mobile, console, PC, handheld, etc. I'm always open to trying any type of game and usually end up enjoying most games. :)
