what kind of gamer are you?

I'll try to get the ball rolling in here:

What kind of gamer do you consider yourself? Do you stay to one specific genre or type of game, or do you like all kinds?

Nowadays, it's mostly just pinochle and video games for me. I used to play all sorts of collectible card games and board games, but I've seriously lost interest in them in recent years.

I generally just play [console/handheld] role-playing games (including the action sub-genre, but excluding most strategy and MMOs). Though, I'll occasionally play other types of games (2D sidescrollers, 2D platformers, fighting [only if I can use an arcade-style gamepad], and visual novel/digital comic). I'm pretty much just a dilettante of the other types mentioned, though.

I do pretty much all kinds of gaming, except the D&D RPG sort. Actually, I'm not good at console RPGs either. But I play PC games, console games, collectible (and texas) card games, board games, portable games...

I play old games on my PC, or the small ones like Zangband or Nethack, or online small ones like Bejewelled. I go to Big Fish Games for cheap or free gaming, although none of their games are more than casual.

I like card and board games and RPGs/tabletop gaming (Dungeons and Dragons and the like).

I've been put off console gaming because of the misogyny in the sort of game I might enjoy (action, hack-and-slash) but I have a DS lite and enjoy it for when I can't sleep or concentrate enough for a book.

I play everything.

Except barbie.

But I really enjoy RTS, Warhammer 40,000 Tabletop, and FPS.

i like most game styles. Board games, drinking games to console games. If it has a timer, dice or something shiny or blinky I'm in.

honestly haven't touch any of my consoles in awhile, i'm such a bad gamer lately.
