Third-person, pretty much all the time. I don't even understand how people can play this game in first person, with the exception of aiming. I have never played a game where I feel this disoriented in first-person. Though I guess I prefer third-person in general. In first I just feel like a pair...

I think it's because I've neither played a lot of shooters, nor a lot of adventure games (haven't watched a lot of those movies either). So Uncharted felt very new and fresh to me, and the story and characters kept me playing. My only complaint is the puzzles being too easy. By the third game, I...

I played it once, got stuck in a ditch and couldn't get up, and never played it again.

Hey! Don't feel embarrassed about liking Sims 3. If spending every night for three months building a neighborhood from scratch isn't hardcore gaming, I don't know what is :p On that note, I love "hardcore" games as well, such as Bioshock and Skyrim and InFamous and Silent Hill and all that crap...

This is my hypothesis, but I need to do the research to prove it. Otherwise, it?s just a theory. Can?t state anything without proof when writing a research paper.

Good thing I'm asking on several forums then. Odd that there are so few women here.

There are other threads like this (I?ve even read a lot of them), but seeing as this is a school project, I needed to make my own. I also couldn?t find one that answered my questions specifically. I?m writing a paper on women and gaming, and one problem I?m having is finding information on what...

Although I love and enjoy a lot of the games Yahtzee has verbally bashed into a bloody pulp, I rarely find myself disagreeing with his criticism. This might have to do with having an eerily similar taste in games as him, but I can nearly always see his point (exaggerated as it is). For instance...

I think the only thing that has really scared me in a game is Pyramid Head. It was the scraping noise he made when he dragged the great knife on the floor that really freaked me out. And if I hear anything that sounds even remotely similar to that effing alarm, my heart starts beating like crazy...

I played it! I love those type of games, like Space Colony, SimPark and Hospital Tycoon. Hearing about it makes me want to play it now. So angry my old sim games doesn't work on Windows 7 (I'm sure I could download something to make it work, but I haven't looked too much into it). If I...

Feel ashamed that I actually forgot about Bully. One of those games that are just fun. I have to say the Buffy the Vampire Slayer games, especially the X-Box exclusive one. It had been a while since I played them, and I figured I only enjoyed them because it was Buffy and I love Buffy, but I...

This is an interesting question, so I tried to think hard. Which game got me into gaming? The more I thought, the more I realized I?ve kind of always been a gamer. It started with watching my brother playing his NES, which I was never allowed to play, but I loved to watch. Then I got my very own...
