I'm terrible at puzzles in games. If I encounter a puzzle and can't solve it within five minutes, I just look it up on GameFAQS, or I'll be staring at the screen for hours as I run round in circles, using everything with everything else. Despite this, I like adventure games for the story.

Yeah it's pretty sad that Runescape went so far downhill. And it's spelled pinata but my computer doesn't have the ability to put the ~ over the n.Knight Templar said:
Some of my gaming confessions are that I used to like Runescape, Viva pinata used to be my favorite game (what's not to love about children cheering about homocide?) My gamertag is stupid and I don't have the points to change it. I never played counter strike. I can't really remember the rest
i stopped playing for a year, and during that year i got hooked on WoW and then i tryed runescape and it sucked balls even more after playing WoWGabes said:
they are over rated, but honestly i like them because your able to do whatever you want and your not confined to a set track to go about your day on. you have an entire city to roam around and do whatever you want to do in and its that freedom that i like about the GTA games. personaly GTA III is my favorite tho, but i have yet to play GTA IVerikvduyn said:
I was stuck in Dodongo's Cavern for a while the first time I played, not because I didn't know what to do, but because I could NOT throw the bomb flower in a way where it would stay up on the ledge where the width between the edge of the platform and the wall you had to blow up was as small or possibly smaller than the width of the bomb flower.LuxAeternus said:
I finally realized that if I held onto the bomb flower and timed it so that it blew up as it hit the wall, I could get through a lot faster. (Although I have managed to get it up on the ledge since, just takes a very lucky throw)
im too poor to afford them so i get them *cough* thru a friend and it makes me mad that i cant support the devsfat american said:
Haha, I have a few.
I have no clue what Dues Ex Machina is.
I thought Halo was stupid till I played Halo 2, three months after it came out, then bought the special addition back in the end of 06', didn't beat it for five or six months, but loved every minute of it. Then bought Halo for $10 and still haven't beaten it. Got close but I downloaded the Halo 3 beta and never picked it back up.
I have more fun making fun of people who can't play Guitar Hero III than I do playing it.
To add to that, I can play HGIII on expert, I'm such a dork.
I watch more cartoons than I do anything else, including play video games.
When it's a slow day at work, I pretend the hot girls are laura craft, I have a gun, and life is awesome.
I've actually bought something from Gamespot.
The first game I ever beat was Halo 2.
I leave my ps3 on just so it can fold at home.
I haven't played a game on my ps3 since Oblivion came out, which I have still yet to finish.
Sometimes I talk in a high pitched whiny voice on Xbox Live just to piss people off.
I haven't played GTA IV in more than three weeks.
I own Bionicle and Kameo on the 360, and I actually enjoy both.
I make Kameo swim and move around the camera so I can look up her skirt.
She didn't have panties until the second update for the game.
I hate all the Half Lives.
EDIT: I'll add some more
I've never beaten a Mario game.
I played three games on the N64, Mario 64, Donkey Kong 64 and Glover, nothing else.
I've played a DBZ game.
Wario Ware is the funnest game I've ever played on a Nintendo console.
I used to like fighting games.
I didn't like Gears of War very much.
Bioshock may be awesome, but I get a head ache from playing it for more than a few hours.
I stole money from my mom to buy a game I never played.
I rate games on their amount of manliness.
I've beaten THUG 2 on the PSP more than six times. It's the only game I played for the summer of 07'
I think Mass Effect is boring as hell, but I really want to play it for the story.
I laugh at www.urmrgay.com than I do grind my teeth.
I play GTA's for a few hours, then just shoot cops and go on sprees for twenty minutes then stop playing for a few days.
If you play a game for a long time, then stop playing cause you have to do something, then play it less until you just play it for cheep laughs or cause someone told you to, I call it the "GTA effect" cause of that.
I liked the DOOM movie, till I saw it again just recently and realized how stupid it was.
I rarely know what Penny Arcade is talking about.
I wish they would make a PS3 without Blu ray so we don't have to put up with these damn load times.

I second that.Bobzer77 said:
speaking of, I picked up the "kill 25 guards in one fight" achievement in a random guard chase, and by the end I was standing in the middle of an area covered with dead guards, with most being killed by the left handed assassin-dagger-stabby-thing. yeah, I got way too good with the combat system.
oh, as for something I don't even get a smidgen of pride out of: I couldn't catch the fat guy before he waddled into the guard post. yeah, fail.
I love Target: Terror and will defend it to the ends of the earth. Cut, print, this thread can't get any better/worse.

oh and i also beat many of the barbie games my sister bought under the excuse of 'testing to make sure they worked'

and the mass effect comment : regular gasp
I played, and completed command and conquer generals, pokemon red, yellow, and gold(I also caught 251 pokemon and cheated repeatedly).
I played Yugioh for a year(including a video game), I played White Wolf for 2, and a few games of Vampire the masquerade. I was in a BESM (anime RPG) with a PC who had gaydar (we kicked him out for being a homophobe, who was probably gay just hiding at the back of the closet, and for creeping us the fuck out)
I spent 3 days trying to get a pair of girls to make love in Sims 2, while I was at a friend's house, I don't remember if I succeeded.
I've willingly role-played as a girl on several occasions, admittedly they were usually lesbians, if not then bi, and yes it did tend to come up.
EDIT: When I was in Jr. high I stole money from my band funraiser to buy a gameboy so I could play the copy of Pokemon red I was getting for christmas, which I took from my mom's closet while she was in the hospital, while I was at my grandparents house.
I can't think of anything else, for right now, however I've been a big time gamer for over a decade, I'm sure I'll remember something later.

The first time I tried to play FFVII, I didn't realize that the elevator was an elevator and promptly died right in the beginning.
I've NEVER been able to do the "hide-from-the-guard-puzzles" in any RPG I've ever played- I've always had to use gamefaqs.com to cheat my way through them.
I very rarely beat a game. (This stems mostly from the fact that I check them out for a maximum of 4 days from Gamestop, and I never actually have money to buy it afterwards) Among the few I have actually beaten are FFX, FFX2 *cringe*, Suikoden V, Neverwinter Nights (the original, no expansions... yet), and a couple DDRS on Standard. Maybe I should play a few that aren't RPG's just to beat them, lol.
I never played WoW myself but I used to sit on my ex boyfriend's lap and watch him play all the time. I was doing the same thing with Half-Life Two: Episode Two for a while...
EDIT:
Oh yes, unlike most gamers, I enjoyed 'Stay Alive'. When she brought out the camera from Fatal Frame, I squealed. Which the theatre wasn't happy about, but they can suck it because they probably didn't get the reference.
