Ive got a PC. I havent tried any of the sports games on it yet, but im sure i will in the close future. I prefer the Role playing, and RTS mostly but nothing beats a good shoot em up every now and again!

I've never tried games like that on the PC, i use a laptop mostly and i dont think its fast enough to play games like that. What sports are you interested in? Thats true about the shoot em up, but gotta love kicking back with my PS3 wheel, racing around the streets all day long therapeutic in a weird kinda way!

I have a ps2, a Wii, a psp and a nintendo DS.

I love RPG's such as Legend of Zelda, Tales of Symphonia and Final Fantasy Oh yeah, i also like Tomb Raider, but the earlier ones.

My PC's not really up to playing games at the moment

I like to play games on the internet too, and I mostly play gin with others. And I also like Sudoku. Anyone else play gin?

Second Life is pretty cool. I especially like Worms Armageddon. Currently I am addicted to Brickshooter Egypt whereas puzzle games are really my forte. About once a month, me and several of my friends get together for a lan party, the last one lasted 3 days.

yes !!!. Unfortunatly though, RPG set off a seizure.. I think because it requires reading and solving problems. I did play Oblivion breifly before my seizures got worse and it is an awesome game.. but I played it on XBox 360.

Also a world of warcfrat fan, but also stopped playing that for the same reason.

I can just about play first person shooters (Halo 3 and Gears of War 2 since they dont require any reading or problem solving) though I can still get some tingling.

If your OK with games (i seriously think I have reflex epilepsy and will be discussing this with my neurologist on tuesday.. im relativly new to epilepsy) then you will really love WoW and Oblivion (oblivion made by same people as fall out 3)

WoW was probably for me the ultimate game I have ever played, but was the first time it set off simple partial jerking...landing me in the ER and me wondering why on earth that happened when I had been playing Halo with no problem .. well I think I now know why.

Good luck with your gaming experience, if you have the 360 give me your gamer tag and I normally can play Halo and Gears of War or Left 4 Dead of O a, careful enough.

BTW yes Second Life is amazing, and so big of a world its impossible to ever see all of it. I believe its a psychological experiment LOL it really is a second life you can do anything in real life. BUT requires money, and the reason I quit playing was the amount of porn on it. Pretty sad that an amazing creation ended up with probably 70% of it being porn.

The one game that freaks me out is Portals, it just screws with perceptions of realism and makes me dizzy. One of my friends is excellent with Portals and knows most of the tricks. He sets up this scenarios of falling in a hole to falling out of the same hole in a different wall. Like throwing a chair into the portal of the floor only to have it fall past you as it falls out of portal in the ceiling. ARRRRGH!



The caek is a lie!

I tried Second Life,I agree with the porn. WoW is the coolest, hopefully it stays that way. I havent tried portals, sounds pretty cool though. There are some parts in Fallout 3 that i had to wonder what medication the designers were on!

LOL @ fallour 3, seen the reviews and I think i might have done a trial, BUT the graphics are amazing. I find that the earliest XBox 360 games are pretty much ok graphics wise, but right now gosh they are amazing. I have a RPG called Assasins Creed, havnt played it in a while... but MAN is that amazing. Basically your in jerusalem and damascas like ... 2 thousand years ago, and it just looks REAL you are a guy in the future who is send back there in a memory capsule to get memories of one of his ancestors who was some important guy. You get to walk down the streets full of markets and beggers, pick pocketing, all sorts of things, I was totally blown away when I saw that game. You can also climb on ANYTHING you see.. any building... and walk along the tower tops. I kept getting chased though on my horse by guards when I was travelling from city to city lol

ps3, wii, and some pc stuff. RPGs, RTS, and FPS games seem to be my favorites. I'm realllllyyy looking forward to modern warfare 2, it looks amazing. I've been playing League of Legends on PC lately, its pretty fun. Very similiar to DOTA if anyone plays that. The game is in beta right now, if you're interested I can get you a beta key.

WoW is def. a fun game, sucks up too much of my time though >_< canceled my account a while ago.

I've been all over Batman Arkham Asylum lately too, I highly recommend it if you guys haven't played it already

I aspire to becoming a total Civilization IV geek. Well on my way.

Play Grand Theft Auto III too. (I only run down characters that shoot at me.) Mostly I like wandering around lovely Liberty City. Beautiful VR world.
