WoW, but I can't stop playing!!!

 

[Zai]

Easily, easily Dwarf Fortress.

Spending hours and hours tweaking my fortress and wondering why I can't quite get Urist McPeasant to quit adopting cats.

Magic The Gathering... 'Nuff said

 

[Poopie McGhee]

Magic: The Gathering

in the final game of a tournament i was surrounded by 5 fat greasy kids with pimples and glasses, i had just placed a rather difficult card to place wich grew with every hit point you gave it, everyone made amazed noises ("ooh" and "ahh") my adversary swore loudly and i sat back smiled pleased at his reaction and thought "fuck, i am a frikken nerd"

then i won and put all my cards in a box that is now "gathering" dust in my room

i am thinking on giving them away.

That game is pretty fun... I Played at a card shop and felt like a total nerd... I'm probably gonna steal a deck from a friend... (Terrible)..

I found my old Gameboy and Pokemon: Red Version and started to play it...for hours. *sobs*

I swear... Pokemon is made out of meth... I have R/B/Y, G/S, Green, And Pearl... and I'm gonna buy HeartGold/SoulSilver when they come out and Emerald When I can... To Clear it up... I'm An (Almost 20) year old male who loves FPS and RPG and all the great violent things... Pokemon must be laced with something... My first hit of "Pokemon" was when Red version game out... Last one was 10 minutes ago...

I had Soul Silver imported to me...

Is it good?

 

[ottenni]

Not really. I play for shits and giggles so i don't get that feeling.

Dissidia, not so much the game, but i knew each charecter, what there specail would most likely be, and the names of at least one of their attacks before i started playing...

 

[Shift23]

Really, anything that has a "history" behind it: Marvel Ultimate Alliance is a big one for me. The Trivia games made me feel so much like a nerd. I never looked stuff up to cheat, I always get one or two wrong, but the fact that I knew the answers. Example: Mac Gargan was paid by whom to become the Scorpion? J. Jonah Jamison. I actually spat that out before I even looked at the choices.

 

[DuplicateValue]

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.

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...

That, was the best game ever. Period.

Yeah I loved it!
I spent sooo much time on that game... xD

i could say WOW, but i dont take it personally, i mean used to raid a little bit, would creep people out with my undead rogue, talking to dead things and saying killing makes the voices stop, but i guess talking about the time i jumped off of the dam near ironforge and missed the water, and died, and al the other really stupid stuff i do in WOW (like running a gnome into deathknell to lv) makes me feel nerdy, but i guess the nerdiest part is when you are standing in line for an expansion release, talking about killing alliance guys from WOW and the guy in front of me basically buffs himself. looks down at me and says hello HORDE!! i feel more like i am awash in yhe seas of geekdom, yet they dont really touch me, i do it for teh lolz

 

[Slash Dementia]

Only when playing Dungeons & Dragons Online but I stopped after a week.

 

[Iron Mal]

Pretty much any RPG under the sun, especially if they make any reference to D20s and other features from DnD (I personally do enjoy DnD but I will admit it is a tad on the socially retarded/challanged side), JRPGs also come under this catagory.

Most of the Soul Calibur games (especially four, then again, who doesn't love Yoda?).

Starcraft (need I say more?).

Finally, the original Turok games (I felt nerdy in a good sense though, the 'I'm a secret badass' kind of nerd...the Aplha nerd if you will).

 

[quetzal231]

Well WoW, but not wile playing but after when having conversations about gear and stuff. Oh and I can draw an accurate map of Kalimdor and a half arsed one of the eastern kingdoms, plus I know most of the world history and occasionaly hold small lectures for my friends.

 

[Tireseas_v1legacy]

The first time I played Dungions and Dragons. I had been a gamer before, but that this where I crossed into "true Nerd" territory.

 

[KILLGORE]

That would be Bleach: Shattered Blade. It was the combination of worthless english voiceacting and wii-mote flailing that made me realize...

I too suffer from this

 

[Veylon]

Dwarf Fortress? Disgaea? Europa Universalis? How about these?
