What type of Gamer are you

[Fnaar]

I've only ever got into 4 games, in the history of me and gaming:
1) Wacky Wheels
2) Doom
3) Civilization
4) Angry Birds

all on PC, except the birds, on my phone

 

[Brandane]

Pong. Then Space Invaders when I went all techie.

PC all the way, mouse and keyboard are so much more accurate for fps.

PC here too, but coming from Xbox just couldn't get the hang of flying with mouse so bought a controller.

I think I suffer in BF3 as I'm sure mouse/kbd makes jets more manoeuvrable (well that's my excuse for getting shot down so often in dogfights plus Its an age thing as well )

LOL... when i was an 8 year old lad, this was possibly my favourite toy...

then about 25 years later, I discovered this...



and i was a kid again.

I had the matchbox race and chase , if I remember correctly you hit a button and the car would turn and go the other way , hours of fun

No type really, Bejewelled and Candy Crush on iPad before bed

I bought a PS2 once, played a couple of games but it made me really dizzy so I sold it

PC - I can't begin to imagine how you fly an attack helicopter in BF3 on a console controller.

BF4 on the birthday list along with cash to upgrade my box. BRING IT ON!!

14 years or something silly PC gaming. Quake - RTCW - All Call of duty's - ET Quake Wars - CSS - Trackmania

To name but a few. Played competitively in all but one of the Call of duty series

 

[MrJamie]

PC mainly, but nowhere as near as much as I used to.

I've ordered an Xbox One too, 3 weeks to go

see my problem is, I'm the type of gamer who's terrible at playing them. Driver and Driver 2 are the only ones I've completed... and I had to use a cheat for that dastardly final mission on Driver.
Been stuck on the same mission in Worms Armageddon for 10 years ... so just play the Death Match until i lose.
I couldn't even unlock San Fierro/Flint County in GTA: San Andreas so had to buy a memory card off Ebay just so i could explore further than Los Santos.
Tried medal of honour and couldn't even got off the beach at the beginning... so gave up after a week.
This is probably the real reason I haven't bothered keeping up with modern games... they're just too hard.

Oh... I did complete Lego Star Wars II... but that is for three years olds

A lot of it's about immersion. A decent sound card gives you the crisp sound to hear footsteps,jumping, reloads, weapon swaps, grenade cooking and so on. A quality pair of headphones further increases this by blocking out a lot of the sound around you.

I have my soundcard split off to a 5.1 surround system and a pair of headphones, can't play to save my life using the former (kicks ass for playing music though) but the latter, don't stick your head up

 

[Booyaa]

Only really football nowadays, with the odd basketball shootaround thrown in.

 

[mark st1]

I'm the S&D Beast in my house PS3 all the way for me though

PC - I can't begin to imagine how you fly an attack helicopter in BF3 on a console controller.

It took quite a while on empty servers to nail it, I fly R/C helicopters (my other moneypit hobby) so it's not too dissimilar.
