- While I am a huge fan of the Phantasy Star universe, own most of the titles, and have logged many hours into Phantasy Star Online, I have never finished a game.
- I find grinding in most MMOs that I play with friends to be quite fun for atleast the first 10 levels. I also really enjoy leveling useless stats - this is probably why I liked UO a decade ago...
Ive got more but gotta run for now

1. I never played a 3d Mario game more than a minute.
2. I don't like to play on my Xbox 360 that much because I don't feel like going into the other room.
3. I got GTA 4 new when it first came out,but I only got half way and quit playing.
4. I never played a Legend of Zelda game.
5. I don't like playing on the Wii.
6. Violent games make me laugh sometimes when I play them.
7. I don't finish most of my retro games besides Sonic & beat-em ups games.
8. I only play fighting games with arcades sticks.
9. I don't like the turn-based rpg genre.
10. When I used to play GTA,when I failed a mission I use to go on a rampage and shoot everything in sight.

great post!
1) i gave away my old atari 2600 junior and all games when i was a kid and had to buy a new 2600 recently and a buttload of new games.
2) i also lost my nes in a move and spent WAY too much money on amazon.com ($125) for a new one that came with 25 games because i didnt know about sites like this yet.
3) i also spent almost $400 on a wii because my wife really wanted one for christmas.
4) i gave my classic gameboy and a bunch of AMAZING games to my little cousins and they are gone for ever.
5) i told my mom to go ahead and donate my virtual boy to the salvation army a few years back. i know the system is generally looked down upon and i only had 2 games, but it was a great novelty item to show friends.

i love myst and riven and have always wanted to play the rest of the series. i have been playing metroid prime for years, in between other games. i have always wanted to beat it and play the others also. i also own a jaguar, but im not ashamed of that!

The only Zelda I've played is Phantom Hourglass, and I'm fine with that.
I hated New Super Mario Bros. I hate Super Mario Bros. 2.
I never really liked GTA.
I still love Pokemon.
If D&D were properly integrated into a game, I would never play another game again.
I believe Halo is mediocre, at best. How it got such praise, I won't know.
I bought all the Sega consoles backwards.
I now have four Virtual Boys.
I feel bad for my parents considering I keep bringing a bunch of gaming items home.

1. Final Fantasy 8 is my favorite in the series
1a. I've completely played through it 3 times up to ultimecia's castle and still haven't beat it
2. I almost prefer grinding in games to actually playing them
3. Since I got internet access I haven't played a RPG without at least glancing at a FAQ
4. I used to co-webmaster a popular Pokemon website
5. I got a Dreamcast last year and haven't played more than 30 hours on it
6. The playlist on my MP3 player is over 50% game music

oh ma how could i forget to mention my obsession with checking with FAQs... i am obsessed with experiencing every element of a video game and the thought of missing something keeps me awake at night... okay not really, but it keeps me from falling asleep as quickly as i normally would.

i have every zelda song from every zelda game ever released on my ipod... even dumb stuff like the chest opening tune and things like that. im ridiculous...
