How do you game?

[Quackzilla]

Tell how you play games, what you prefer to play, and time spent on consoles, portables, and your PC.

Me? I play mostly action and strategy games, about 70% of my gaming is on portables, 25% on consoles, and 5% on PC.

[Pijaibros]

I like my games like, Brannigan's love. Hard and Fast.

Shooters, Brawlers, and Fighters are my love especially in 2d.

I say my action is about 60/40. More emphasis on the portable side since 2d isn't dead there.

[Puffa469]

I play portables on the bus/train as I commute to/from work. I almost never play portables at home.

I play only FPS games on my PC cos I cant stand playing them on a gamepad. I probably play a few times a week after work, for an hour or three, maybe slightly longer on the weekends.

I play everything on my consoles except fps's. I usually play almost every day when I come home from work, unless I have plans. I probably will play 2-3 hours a night. I try to play easy to pick up games during the week, like fighting or racing games, where I can keep the play session short.

On weekends is when I will sit down and start new games, or get involved with epic type, or long games like RPG's and story games. On a weekend, if I am home I will play quite a bit, maybe 8+ hours in a day.

I will generally choose playing games over watching movies or tv, except on Sundays during football season, when i will watch that all day.

[shieryda]

Consoles only. 60/40 split between PS2 and Xbox. I prefer 1st person shooters, but like the 3rd person action games and rpg's, too.

Tell how you play games, what you prefer to play, and time spent on consoles, portables, and your PC.

Me? I play mostly action and strategy games, about 70% of my gaming is on portables, 25% on consoles, and 5% on PC.

I play almost every genre except RTS and stealth. Of late I have mostly been playing hack and slash (BG:DA, Bard's Tale, Champions of Norrath, and Untold Legends). I am always playing NHL 2004 (In season 11, playing every game). I would say right now 80% on consoles (mostly box), 15% on portables and 5% on PCs, although that changes drastically when I'm playing a MMO, but I'm not at the moment. Chomping at the bit for the 360, fearing that EB is going to fuck me out of mine, and really wishing that 99 nights, Full Auto, and [e]NCHANT [a]RM were coming out day 1.

[Kayden]

I'm generally 100% what ever catches my interest, once I catch a game I like I don't drop it til I never want to touch it again.


Right now I'm hard into WoW.

I'd say my collection is 80% RPG, 10% shooter, 10% other. 25% PC and 70% console 5% portable.

[dpatel]

Hardly ever game on handhelds. Like to play action, RPG, any game with a good story, multiplayer. Spend most of my time gaming on consoles, probably about 80%, then I play a few PC games online, mostly RTS.

[Apossum]

mostly play DoA:U, SF:A, and CvS2 on live. I also play a lot of Ninja gaiden, Tetris Attack, IQ, Puzzle Fighter, and some others on a regular basis. I pretty much play fighters, puzzle games and the cream of the crop from other genres, besides stealth, simulators and Srpgs.

95% consoles, 2.5% DS, 2.5% melty blood on the pc.

[Vegan]

I push the buttons! lolololololololsigh

[zewone]

I play only good shit and I say I play about 90% Xbox, 5% PSP, 3% PS2, and 2% GC for the year.

[Morrigan Lover]

I play 2-player games with my girlfriend. Her favorites are Super Mario Brothers, Dr. Mario, and Chu-Chu Rocket.

[Supercake]

80% on consoles, (PS2,Xbox,Cube) 10% portable, and 5% PC. I really only play old PC games since my laptop can't run much, but nothing ancient, unless Doom and Fallout are relics now. I love my GBA, but I can only play Warioware and Castlevania so many times. I'm pretty much playing games whenever I can, 24/7. It's what I've been doing all my life.

For genres, it's mostly RPG's, and odd games. I don't mean to sound snobby, but much of my games are just what I consider WTF, not for casuals. (Gitarooman, Nightmare of Druaga, Samurai Western.)

[Kuros]

It's actually about even for me:

33% Consoles (Whatever one I feel like playing, I have 9 hooked up to my tv right now. :D)
33% PC (Usually FPS games, but sometimes other stuff like Daggerfall and older games)
33% Handheld (Mostly during Lab weeks at school. Waiting while Windows installs sucks.)

Finally, 1% Rock, Paper, Scissors with myself. I always win!

[Over easy]

60% PC (World of Warcraft and Warcraft 3 (DotA))
30% Console (Fire Emblem currently)
10% Portable (Advance Wars: DS)

I play mostly RPGs, FPS, strategy, and sometimes sports games if I feel the itch to play and I don't have too much time on my hands. For portables, it's mostly when I am doing my business in the bathroom. I would bring my DS around, but I don't want it to get scratched up too quickly.

[irrossistable]

10% Console (Fighters)
35% Portables (Platformers, RPG's, and the DS flavor of the week)
55% PC (Pretty much everything else under the sun, but I'm big on RTS games)

[Amano]

60% Consoles
*40% PS2/PS1 / 30% SNES / 20% Gamecube / 10% Xbox @ Work (only for 2D Fighters).

40% Portables
*60% DS / 40% GBA SP2

My genre flavors.... 2D Fighters, RPGs; preferably of the action variety but any will do), Eastern Quirk, and pretty much anything that's been considered "gimmicky". Oh, Rhythm, too. And Racing... Honestly, there's only a handful of game genre's I don't like, and those are FPS/TPS, 3D Fighters, and "standardized" sports games.

[vietgurl]

70% Consoles
FPS, Action, RPG, Adventure

25% PC
Mostly RTS, sometimes FPS

5% Portables
I hate carrying these in my backpack and since I'm a girl, they don't fit in my pockets.

[Tha Xecutioner]

All Xbox all the time. Mostly racing or shooters (usually FPSs) and on occasion I will do some sports games like hockey or snowboarding.

[Moxio]

Big RPGer. Sometimes RPGs, other times MMORPGs.

60% PC
30% DS
10% GC

[alonzomourning23]

97% console, 2.5% handheld (they hurt my neck, I play gba games on my gamecube a lot), .5% pc (all those months playing Tanarus when I was younger).

I mostly play rpg's (pre this generation), and then a smattering of games. The only current stuff I consistently play is first party nintendo games. I'd say about 70 or 80% of my gaming is pre current gen.

[asianxcore]

I love 2-D fighting games, puzzle games, and adventure games mostly.

lately I have been spending a lot of time playing stuff on my portable (Nintendo DS), since I've been too busy with work and my classes to put a lot of time into any of my consoles. recently though, I've gained a lot of time to play Shadow of The Colossus, which is nice. so I'd say usually it goes like this,

70% portable
30% console
