Do you play video games or online games? Which ones are the ones you play the most??


I love games but I get bored of them pretty easily. I don't have a lot of time or patience, so as soon as I realize I'm not even halfway through the game yet and I've been playing for a week, I just give up...
I like shooter games like COD, but also some RPGs like final fantasy and kingdom hearts..
I haven't gotten into any online games again because of not enough time.

I only like zombie video games. Zombies Ate My Neighbors and any Resident Evil are my favorites. Silent Hill is pretty good too.

We don't play video games or computer games. In fact we don't play any games at all. We may play a card game or Boggle once every few years!

Dana will play a few games online, and actually I'm buying him a crazy "pimped out" computer here soon so that he can play all the games he wants because his old computer died and he's been whiney ever since.

I've been playing video games since they first come out I think.

My brother's teaching me how to play on the Wii and the new psp and all that, but I will always be an NES/Super NES/Commodore 64 gal myself at heart.

I like the facebook games although I don't like having to go on them every day or every few hours. I just want to play games when I feel like them, and not feel that it's an obligation.

The only ones I play/played are Freecell, Spider Solitaire, Fishdom, and Bubble Buster.

I used to download a lot of the free games but some of them messed up my pc for awhile - I like the ones like Mahjong, Bejeweled the best.

I'm a computer gamer. I love to play online, but not those massively-multiplayer games like WoW and Hellgate London. Those aren't worth $15+ a month IMO. I like RPGs and strategy games the most, but there's the odd first-person shooter that I don't mind.

Not really, no. It's pretty much board games or some card games here.

DH had to declare a moratorium on our Scrabble games because we were playing for blood. He likes to wait til the last moment, then throw down a word using all of his letters.....sometimes he uses a triple-word score on top of it. Not funny! He hates it when I do that to him, but finds it hilarious when he does it to me. We also have the larger Scrabble game...Super Scrabble.

We play a lot of Canasta with friends. Shang-hai Rummy, too. Sometimes, if I really beg, DH will play Monopoly, but that doesn't happen often.

I've been known to while away a couple of hours playing FreeCell or Chess on my computer. Some Spider Soliitaire.

Oh, and Snood. I missed it when it first came out, so I found it later on. And Mahjongg.

Right here! :)
I once got SIMS2 but never got the hang of it, my laptop also didn't really manage it. That's all I have tried in computer games.
But I love board games, alltough I play them far to rarely.

I love a good racing sim with a top-notch physics engine; preferably F1, rally, or motorbike.

I was never much of a game player. There were times when I went through obsessions with computer versions of Solitaire, Mahjonng and Yahtzee though, and had to break the habit cold turkey.

I don't do video game systems (i.e. Playstation, xbox, etc) because they make me nauseous.
I do like online games and visit the AARP website to play frequently.
I love card games, especially euchre. DH and I would spend hours at his Dad's house playing. Since FIL passed away, we don't play cards much anymore.

I have a few video games for PS2 at home, but I haven't played in quite some time. Last time I hooked it up the screen was black so I gave up


I play various online games from time to time, was big into Bingo a couple weeks ago
