Do you game on PC or console?

What console if so?

I game on both PC and Console.

My gf bought me a Nintendo Wii for Christmas with Super Mario Galaxy, Mario & Sonic Olympic Games and Need for Speed pro street. The Wii is great. The graphics may not be as good as the 360 or ps3 but the gameplay leave the other 2 in the dust.

Gaming on PC... I like RPG, Adventure, First person shooter and Strategy(fave).

The games I've played/play (favorite ones)

RuneScape(MMORPG) - Played this for 5 years from when it was first released. Everything I know about computers and my typing speed all comes back to this game...

Realms of Kaos(RPG) - Played this on and off for the last 7 years. Great game all about PKing...

Counter Strike(Firstperson Shooter) - Played this for the last 7 years on and off since version 1.2. Love it, wanna vs me at awps eh? Every now and then I'll go hit up a LAN to tear up on it.

Warcraft 3 DotA (Strategy) - Played this for the last two years since map 5.84. Current map 6.49c. I don't play warcraft itself just this map in particular. I'd say I'm pretty dam good at it but don't get to play it as often as I wish I could...

This is Azrael's son, just thought I'd put a little post in (mostly in reply to JohN Dee)

Imo, Nintendo and PC are fantastic. I'm planning on getting a Wii soon.

As much as I hate to admit it, I was a member of Runescape for about 2-3 years. It was a good game, but then I got hacked. Added to that when they would release an update every weekend (WITH THINGS LIKE FARMING, WHAT SORT OF SKILL IS THAT?!), AND it would take at least a month to get to get a skill to level 99 I got sick of it.

I've never played DotA, all my friends rave about it. Just seems like another way to play Warcraft 3 (which is a fantastic game).
HOWEVER, World of Warcraft is where it's at. Possibly the best MMORPG out there, hands down.

Also, when I've got my Wii it's gonna be Mario Galaxy, Metroid 3, Zelda, Super Smash Brothers Brawl AAAAAAAAAAALL the way.

DBS · 22nd January 2008, 06:16 PM

JohN Dee · 22nd January 2008, 08:58 PM

I never played WoW on the official server except for the "illegal" beta testing. Didn't really turn me on... DotA is heaps more fun...

After Runescape went from runescape classic to rs2 (PKing was never EVER the same) it was hard to get used to... Then I did get used to it and had alotta fun (not as much as on rsc). Then one day I thought.. I'm not gunna waste anymore time on this bs.. So I slowly stepped away from it...

Yeah I got Smash Bros brawl preordered

. That is gunna be SICK on wii. I've been following the nintendo consoles my whole life and have owned each and every console they released. NES, SNES, N64, Game Cube and now the Wii. The best part about the Wii is that you can download all the oldschool games from NES, SNES and n64 aswell as play the gamecube discs..

Therrin · 22nd January 2008, 09:10 PM

PC gaming only.

The Unreal Tournament series, True Combat, Wolfenstein, the rogue series, team fortress, battlefield 1942 and the Desert and Jungle versions, Counter Strike, etc etc... most of the shooters.

Used to play Warcraft 2 like a madman, then Warcraft 3, played some starcraft and AoE, old school Civilization, and Myst =)

Solitaire's cool too ya know

Ekka · 22nd January 2008, 09:57 PM

1st person shooter, just switched to xbox360 from PC.

Call of Duty 4 is primo.

Quintrex · 22nd January 2008, 10:46 PM

I have enough fkn trouble writing an invoice or lookin up porn!

Therrin · 22nd January 2008, 10:50 PM

Quintrex, just think how much better you'd be at doing invoices and finding porn if you polished up on your skills a bit and played some first person shooters?? You'd practically be a pro =)

shaggs · 22nd January 2008, 11:41 PM
