Poll: Games that when you played the words "You're an utter nerd" came into your head...

[Bloody Crimson]

Okay, anyone ever played a game-demos counting-where you felt like a complete dork?

Me personally, it had to be when I played the demo for not a card-based game, but Monster Hunter Freedom Unite. If there is an appearance option I'd make all the characters more chill, realistic, and way less dork.

WoW, Dungeon Runners(That was a fun venture), God forbid but I have to say it: Runescape, Spyro, Land of the Dead, Fable, and a few others I probably repressed for self prestige.

 

[Pifflestick]

Never. I don't think past "I'm having fun for the moment". If I were to think past that I might ruin my fun.

 

[Sassafrass]

When I got into Blitzball in Final Fantasy X. Spent way too long getting a perfectly balanced team...
Actually, just FF X itself.

Spyro is NOT nerdy!
It's more than a game, it's a childhood experience.

OT: Harry Potter Quidditch World Cup. xD
Also, I played Gaia for a while...

Neverwinter Nights 2 the alarm bells started going off the moment I realised I was both starting to learn the whole D&D 3.5 thing and enjoy it >_>

Eve online, but I felt like an increably smart nerd who was forgeing ahead into the great unknow, with only his trusty ship as an anchor to reality, who know where I... wait a minute... just got to set my auto pilot here... there we go... and now to watch a movie while my ship goes through 12 diffrent warp gates...

Well, I took it to a nerdy level.

WoW

Every WRPG ever made
Every JRPG ever made
Every RTS ever made
Magic: The Gathering XBLA game

Edit: Man, how could I forget the Pokemon gameboy games? I still play them to this day, and every year that goes by I feel more and more childish for doing so. Damn you Nintendo for making such amazing Pokemon games!

 

[BigSuze]

Pokemon. Really enjoyable game but a little bit embarrassing when you're 24.

 

[Guitarmasterx7]

I just play games where you shoot dudes and beat the fuck out of people, so not too much. I guess "Oblivion" is my nerdiest game.

When I was young I went through a Yu-Gi-Oh phase and had to but every card out there. Having out grown them for a few years now I was surprised to find a bag filled to the brim with them the other day when I was cleaning out my room. I was about to throw them out when I said "Maybe I should see if there are any good ones in here". So there I was for an hour, sorting through cards looking for the most powerful one.

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Oblivion.

So many lovely numbers!

Making potions is particularly nerdy in that one. Love it.

 

[Ammadessi]

Cooking Mama, or does that just make me a girl?

 

[katsa5]

What are you talking about? Games don't make me a nerd. My pickling anything does.

Dungeon Runners really was fun, too bad they had to go and fuck with the free accounts

 

[NeutralDrow]

Of course. The difference probably being that I approved.

 

[initialdelay]

Eve, although I'm still playing nearly a year on... And Pokemon, although I haven't been near the franchise in years now. But I can still hear the battle music!

 

[Supreme Unleaded]

People call me a gearhead for taking 25 minutes to perfectly customize my car on Dirt (the first) for that particular track. It not my fault that i know my gear ratios and negative banking tracks, is it.
