Oops.. I voted on ones I have played/like.

I also love to game on the computer....

But I must admit I have been an avid Pokemon fan since day 1, and I love me some Zelda/RPG action.

Mario is also a fave of mine.

FTW!

That reminds me of Dr. Mario! I love that game ... might go play it now.

You'd think I was really into video games or ... more
Understand about being disappointed. I feel I lost some interest in what has been coming out in the last 5 years especially. For me it's a style and regional thing--I don't feel that more realistic means better graphics, and I do not care for Western games at all--which there are much more of now.

Yay, C64! I can't even what all I played on it, but I think that was a fine computer. I wish I still had mine.

Your grandma is awesome!!

My grandma didn't seem very aware of video games.

My parents used to play Super Mario Brothers over and over when I was growing up--and they could not get anywhere. I was happy to see them playing something together. Today, I put on Wii Sports and Mario Kart for them. It's the only way I can occupy them and keep them from talking politics to me!! I'm so grateful for the Wii. Sometimes I want to write Miyamoto a thanks just for this.

I think I want to get them a system now. I think it would be much better for them than TV which is too passive.

I have a NES, PS1, PS2, Game Boy Advance, Nintendo DS, Xbox, and Xbox360. I just repaired my NES not too long ago, which was a great idea. Mine was having trouble reading games properly, even after I'd blow the dust out of the cartridges and stuff. Now, after replacing a part and taking apart my games to clean them, it works perfectly

My husband is a hardcore gamer. We have no less than 7 consoles hooked up to the TV at any given time. He's got consoles from Japan that I've never even heard of.

I have an NES, SNES, Gameboy Advanced SP, a DS Lite my girlfriend and I share, a Sega Genesis, Playstation 2, PSP, and a Wii. I had a Playstation and a Gamecube, but I sold both of them since I can play those games on the PS2 and Wii. I use to have a Sega Gamegear, but I think it may have gotten lost. I also use my PC to play games.

Between my boyfriend and I we have over 10 systems...our 360s see the most use though because they have the most co-op games for us to play together. This works especially nicely when he's at his house and I'm at mine. We play online together.

I currently own a GBA SP, PS2, and a Wii, not to mention all of the PC games that I own and have played over the years. I'm leaning toward buying a 360, mainly so that I can play "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World." Great movie, great video game.

the computer is the only system you need and is normally years ahead of all the consoles

I use my 360 all the time. No problems yet. I think the biggest reason I use and like it is the controller. Just feels right to me.

My kids got a Wii for Christmas a few years ago from their Great-Grandparents & they LOVE it I like that I can get them fun, easy games to play because they are only 6 & 3. My husband & I like it too, we have been playing Super Mario Bros and are fairly addicted to it!

I voted Sega Genesis, because that was my childhood game console, and I put in many hours playing ECHO and Sonic (heck yes!).. But my sister has confiscated it now. -pout-


I also put down Playstation 3. Because the boyfriend just got it, and since we live together now, I have a special love/hate relationship with it.
Yay for netflix on TV!
NAY for boyfriend spending his days off glued to his damn video games.


...I do have to say, though, that God of War game he has is pretty cool to watch.

We have a Playstation, Playstation 2, a Gamecube, an Xbox, and an XBOX360...but I'm afraid most of my gaming is done on a computer.

What in the hell? What about the hardcore guys? The PC gamer..

I have every video game system since the Atari emulated on my PC, and I get to play all the newer games that most people play on their Playstation 3 or XBOX 360, only IMO PC gaming if far superior to consoles because they are by far more powerful than anything you'll ever see in a console.

The XBOX360 and Playstation are OLD, dated technology that compares to the gaming machine I built for myself about six years ago now. It's kind of sad how much consoles are holding back the potential of video games because of crap hardware.

Many people seem to forget that any console controller can be connected to the PC, so I don't see the excuse for why consoles even exist aside from the fact I guess that PC gaming costs wayyy too much money for the average consumer - but some of us geeks just find a way out of respect for all the computer scientists working to move technology forward.
