I'm a sad gamer. I have several licensing exams coming up and am not allowing myself to really get into any games until they are over. Also, no MMOs that require a sub until we are dual income again. My inlaws gave us a PS4 for Christmas and we picked up some awesome games during the December sales. I've wistfully watched my husband play, who deserves it after having finished law school and the bar. As I type he's on I don't know what hour of DA:I, with Destiny and Mordor waiting in the wings, along with our co-op game of Divinity Original Sin that I put on hiatus while studying. 

I can't wait for these exams to be done and off my mind.

 
I really enjoy gaming, but I go in spurts. I could play for 6 hours at a time for a few days, then not game at all for a few months. I have a PS3 that I bought just so I could play the Assassin's Creed series. I also pop in Dragon Age once in a while. I like playing The Sims 3 on my PC. I used to be really into Everquest when it first came out and for the first few expansions. Overall, fantasy RPG's is where it's at for me!

I have the new Assassin's Creed, Shadow of Mordor, and the new Dragon Age on my wishlist, but since I'm super busy until January I will most likely be able to hold off on buying them until they go on sale.   B)
I just got Shadow of Mordor myself for Xmas (along with a system upgrade with an awesome new sound system and video card!), but I won't let myself touch it until I've gotten my blog up and running at last, so I'm eagerly awaiting it.

DA:I has come highly recommended by a friend who got it for Xmas, so that's probably on my future list. I also picked up a couple of the Shadowrun games cheap from Steam, so those are lingering too. 

Does anyone play any of the FTP MMOs? I do a little DDO but it's more of a 'kill time while I make phone calls' thing.

I am :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I'm pretty picky with games though, i lean towards ones with really strong characters and stories.
At the moment I'm pretty obsessed with Dragon Age, but also play Assassin's Creed, Mass Effect, WoW, The Old Republic online, Starcraft2, Total War and miscellaneous others (and of course old school games like Rise of Nations, AoE, Jedi Knight etc) :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />
I so want the new Shadow of Mordor game, but after spending a ridiculous amount of time playing Dragon Age Inquisition (and sacrificing a lot of my social life <_< ) I feel like I need to give it a rest before I dive into a new game ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

It's all about the gear and the gold now. You can buy winning gear from running dungeons and playing the AH. I miss the days when I made most of my good pre-raid gear...
Yeah it is. My shammy hits like a bunny right now. I'm liking my mage. But i'm getting really tired of leveling. I already have 3 100s.  I want new stuff! Like the 100 jungle area :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

What faction do you play? :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Hey gals! 

I've been gaming for some time. I love it. I have a PS3 and a PS4 also got a self build watercooled pc to play games on.

I play BF4 almost every night on the pc (I started to get better but this week I'm getting bad matches again :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />)

Latest game I finished that has eaten up my christmas holiday was Dragon Age Inquisition, damn I loved that game. I picked up AC Unity but I stop playing it after 15 minutes :( /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />. Never finished Black Flag either, I hated the ship combat. Also picked up Far Cry 4 still have to start. 

My all time favorite game that I probably played way to much is the Mass Effect series.

Also loved all the Uncharted games.

I've got so many games, played soo many. And still have many more to play. :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Nice reading this thread 

 
I didn't even realize this was a thread!  I game frequently... Some of my favorites are the Zelda games (esp for the N64), Pokemon, and Skyrim....God I love Skyrim!

Recently played through Shadow of Mordor (which if you haven't played it yet feels like a mash up of Batman, Assassin's creed, and a touch of Skyrim).

Currently playing through GTA V. I'm roughly half way done with the offline game. I figured I would start with that since this is my first GTA game and didn't want to jump straight into playing online.

I started Shadow of Mordor on pc but stopped when I got to the second area (reason: Dragon Age) should get back to it and it is indeed a mix of those games :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Had lots of fun with gta v on ps3, I wanted to replay it on pc but damn it, now it's delayed. Never tested the multiplayer out.

I also looved Tomb Raider and I'm very angry that the next one will be a Xbox One timed exclusive, I'm not getting another console.

I first read this quickly and thought "Oh noes, I'm missing the Easter activities!" and then remembered that it was January and re-read more carefully. >.>  One of my favorite things in WoW is doing the egg hunt as a SPriest. Shadow Bunny Sprint FTW! It was like my little bit of zen. 

My husband and I stopped playing partway through Cata and had little interest in MoP. However, WoD has us both curious. He's trying to motivate me through studying for licensing exams with the promise of WoW and shadow bunnies, though I'm seriously doubting that I'll feel like I can safely pick up an MMO by that point.

LOL you missed christmas, but not easter yet. I like the expansion but having 3 100s it's very time consuming with the garrisons and keeping up on missions and work orders. I feel like I'm constantly farming, but making good gold I feel like. We play on blackhand (hordies) if you guys ever decide to play again! :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Hmmm, that sounds like I really need to be good about assessing my study schedule and free time before hopping back in the game, even more so than before. Although I'm sure I'll be busy first leveling up from 85, possibly while crying first world tears over whatever it is they did to my classes. 

For the Horde!  ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> On Dalaran, though. We used to be on the Oceanic Aman'Thul until we moved back to the US time zones. Does what server you're on still basically restrict interaction with other servers? I saw some mention of changes, but have honestly not kept up.

Leveling is such a pain in the ass. Not being able to fly makes it so difficult since you aggro everything. Our server merged with Galakrond, I don't know why, maybe it was low pop or something. We could still do dungeons and raids cross server, but we couldn't be in the same guild or anything. They did change a ton of things in the game, they took so many buttons out and dumbed it down a ton. And nothing is balanced right now. My sham which was my main used to hit like a truck and now i struggle with my dps, while my mage does a lot more damage with crappy gear. Work out your schedule! :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> We love having friends to do things with :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
i loooooooove batman arkham games. 

i can't wait for this 4th one in may. 

i like the lego games, i've tried playing destiny, but i need someone to show me how to do it.

its pretty difficult. little big planet is super fun too (for us PS4 people). i also love wii u and playing mario kart & all those mario games. those are awesome.

 
I love the fact that woman show me that we can be just as good or even better then they are on COD I, II, III. and the fact that we like zombies..lol I got the xbox ps3 and ps4 so YES i am a GAMER..love it. played so many.

 
I LOOOOVVVVVEEEEE video games, been playing since I was 5! (or maybe earlier but I cant remember most of my childhood). I play on xbox 360 (hoping to get an xbox 1 and ps3/4 in the future). I play skyrim, CoD, Final Fantasy, Destiny, Naruto, Minecraft (xbox 360 & pc), load of others as well. 

I also love Eden Eternal (pc) 

 
Oh, I like playing computer games, I was great fan of them in my teenage years and I still play them time till time, however now that happens not too often because adult life is much busier :p
My the most favourite one is Half Life 2, in my opinion it's the best games which had been ever made. I played it so many times and I dream about releasing third episode some day. They should end that amazing plot! :)
I also like GTA, Hitman and Alien VS Predator series, the last one from them was really good. BloodRayne is my favourite too, in my opinion it's one of the best ones in case of main female character. Chaser, Thief and Prey are good ones too.
I like some mmorgs too, especially Cabal, Shaiya and World of Warcraft. But I don't play them often because I don't like much that donating thing for such types of games.
And I adore virtual gambling, especially mr green casino and card games, it's a great fun for me too but I've never spent too much money on such games.
