So basicly I have to do an assignment at school on a sub-culture and I chose gamers because being one I thought it would be easier to do but the internet with it's vast information couldn't tell me any thing about gamers except for well we like games.
So I'm just going to ask a few questions about yourselves to use as a source of information about gamers for my assignment.

I'm not going along with the spirit here because I think that your premise is wrong. The common denominator here is games. Other than that you will find all walks of life here. If I were a betting man I'd say that a person could reasonably assume that you will find most creeds, nationalities and political beliefs pervade the Escapist and all gamers. If I were you I'd focus on what makes gamers GAMERS. What is it about games? Why do games draw certain people and not others. Are we all gamers. Is a cardshark any less a gamer because he plays with cards?

Um okay I can't answer the first few music stuff cause I'm not that into music so beginning under that

Favorite Film/TV Genre is probably action for films and comedy for TV.

Favorite Film Series Transformers or Lord of the Rings.

Most hated Film Series is uhm well I don't usually go to see movies I think I'm going to despise I'd say Inkheart just because it was all good up until the ending ruined it a bit for those who read the book. It's not a series though..

Favorite Videogame genre I don't know what I'm looking for in a game so I'd guess RPG style strategy or some kind of sandbox RPG shooter/medieval thing

Favorite Game series this is a hard one...Hmm I'd like to say Assassin's Creed because as full of design flaws as the first one it was a decent challenge that while obnoxious and painful was fun for a bit. The second one was epic fun. I wish I could have played Infamous GoW for ps3. Mass Effect sounded fun too.

Most hated video games series Halo that game just disappointed me it was a start of a bad trend and the whole flood thing ruined any fun I had with the game.

I believe in Christianty no matter how badly people want to hammer in my skull their beliefs. I believe in a mix between creatolism and evolution as in God created the first creatures and let them evolve guiding them sorta like that. I could go deeper but I want to keep this post as short as possible...Well I'll try.

My general outlook on life? It's good.

Other interests? I like to read, watch tv and...Damn I can't really say games here can I?...Glad I could help.
