    Question Do you like to play Video games?

    And if you do, what kind do you like to play and do you have some favorites?

    We have all kinds of systems here,lol. I like playing rpg's (role playing games) Right now I'm playing Harvest Moon ~It's a wonderful life. I have lots of fun planting & harvesting crops and taking care of the livestock on my farm. (I named my farm Funny Farm ) I even get to marry and have a child. Lot's of mindless fun.

    Some of my old fav's are the varioius legends of Zelda and good old Tetris.

    What about you?

    I love video games! We don't have any here (except the computer), but we used to play "Mario" games all the time! It helped my husband to relax. I got hooked on them when I bought my neices and nephews a system to play whenever they spent time with me. I got hooked and in turn got DH hooked!

    Back in the days when we were on the cutting edge of technology, we had a super nintendo. Our favorite was "Zombies Ate My Neighbors." Each level was based (a spoof) on different horror/B movies and you had to go though and save all the neighbors... extra points for cheerleaders. Anybody else play?

    A friend had a Sega and we played Sonic quite a bit too.

    We use to play the Super Mario games and Zelda games as well as DuckHunt.

    We have a PS2 now and before we got the Satellite hooked up I was playing Kingdom Hearts. It was sort of like Final Fantasy meets Disney. Same FF characters w/ Goofy, Donald and a few other worlds based on Disney movies.

    Joe plays the games like Metal Gear & Splinter Cell and I play Grand Theft Auto and Golf.

    There are lots of video games in this house. We have gameboys, PS2, and we have computer games. My son loves video games, he likes the driving games. My daughter can kick my butt on her gameboy games. I am hooked on Roller Coaster Tycoon, ohh is that fun!!
    Happy Gaming

    No, I don't play either. The most exciting I get is playing solitaire on the computer! (and I still prefer to play with the cards) The kids have a Super Nintendo but they stopped playing that a year and a half ago.

    We have x-box. DD and DH love to play the sports games together. Their favorite is Tiger Woods Golf, then it's a tie between tennis and basketball. When DS is home from college some weekends, we all play Fusion Frenzy and laugh ourselves silly.

    We're looking forward to giving DD a dance mix game and the dance pad for X-box this coming Christmas. I think we'll all have a lot of fun with that.

    I like puzzle type games like Tetris (obviously, since I'm the Tetris champ here at the village, for now at least).

    I also play lots of word games on yahoo, like word racer, mojo, bookworm.

    I play word whomp, and so forth on popo too.

    Occasionally I'll go to games.com and play boggle.
