Does anyone here play video game?

Other than TW200_, do any of you play video games regularly? I still go until midnight before I crash out. My small collection includes;

GTA3
GTA:Vice City
God of War
Star Wars: Battlefront 1 & 2
Hot Sots Golf FORE!
Metal Gear Solid, MGS2, MGS3
Final Fantasy VIII (I know, VII was better - if they remake it, I'll get it...)

So...have at it. Note if you play online, maybe we can play a "friendly" round sometime.

I love video games and play all the time. RPG's are my favorites, both on PS2 and GC. I like the Final Fantasy series, the Tales series, Legend of Zelda hmm Dark Cloud 1 and 2.. many more. PLayed FPS games and adventure games a lot in the past. But yeah gaming is awesome. Never played MGS but have heard good things about them.

Other than TW06, I've been playing the newest Maximo game on PS2. It's a fun game.

I must admit I spend most of my X-box gaming playing TW06, but I do occasionally put on Pro Evolution Soccer 4, Burnout 3, Forza Motorsport and Brian Lara Cricket.

If it wasn't for the wife and kids and mistress(golf), I'd be a hardcore gaming nut. One that make me sick was the Aliens FPS on PS1. 20-30 minutes there and I was done. Final Fantasy VIII - I've never finished, but I've started it 3 times and logged over 100 hours each time. steffies, you should get MGS:SS - the PS1 game and play that one first (the stories and gameplay are awesome). How much do you guys play online?

I love all kinds and wish i had more time to play. I particularly like RPG's like Baldur's Gate, strategy, and shooters. I am hoping to get Call of Duty and Medal of Honor and a new graphics card for Christmas. I really enjoy learning and reading about WWII and I think these games should help satisfy my WWII interest.

I miss fragging people with the Quake rocket launcher. I used to play games quite a bit, but my PC is now 5 years old and probably wouldn't even play many of the new games.

I have a PS2, but mostly use it for watching DVD's since the DVD player in my HITB system isn't working. I bought God of War a few months ago and ended up playing it very little...same as the game before - Red Dead Revolver.

The screenshots and videos look impressive for Madden '06 for the 360, though. If I had money I would get an HDTV, a new HTIB and a 360 now.

See my signature..got games there now ;)

I thought Asteroids and Centipede were tough enough! Today's games just throw me for a loop. I watch my son (16) play CounterStrike online for hours on end, or some other games that are similar. We don't have any console games (X-box, PSP, etc.) but he has his own computer that I put together for him last year. Of course, now he needs a new video card, so that may be his Christmas present.

We had a thread on video games here last year, so there are some gamers around. Gaz isn't here anymore though, and I know he was one of the others who responded. My favorite games are the Medal of Honor and Call of Duty series...both for the fun gameplay and historical context. I also enjoy the GTA series and Gran Turismo 3 and 4. Not to mention NCAA Football, March Madness, MVP Baseball, and other sports games.

I just recently took my ps2 back out of my truck and hooked it up on my TV in the living room, I've been playing some of The Warriors(awesome!!), GTA:SA, FF:X-2...and then me and my roommate went half and half on an xbox and i've been playin some Madden and TW05, little bit of Splinter Cell too....obviously I have alot of time on my hands, only until the start of the spring semester...

ForeOnRoad: I highly recommend you play that God of War game. That is one of the best games I've ever played. I enjoyed the story and the puzzles, but mostly the soundtrack. I told my brother to get it, he ended up buying something else, so I let him borrow mine. I need to get that game back so I can play it on hard (God) mode...

dodge8604: I know a bit about the background for The Warriors, how does the game play? If you could put a review, I'd appreciate it. Does it control well?

skaghetti: What school do you go to that has a minor in video games? or was that a joke? I know a few schools have video game programming classes. Share the wealth. Of knowledge.
