What Kind Of Gamer Are You?

Games are supposed to be fun, right? And brightly colored and filled with adorable characters. You don't mind fighting enemies, as long as they disappear when they die. And hey, who says casual gamers aren't competitive? You love to win, and when you do, you celebrate with dancing and/or fireworks.

They haven't yet developed an RPG (MMO or otherwise) that you can't grind your way all the way through. When you close your eyes you dream of new ways to upgrade your armor. The day you find the mithril ore you need to max your weapon, will be one of the best days of your life.

Why would anyone bother playing games where you couldn't blow stuff up? Or shoot it? Or shoot it and then blow it up? But you are more than just a hired gun. You're also skilled at hand-to-hand combat. Lately, you've become an expert at stealth, so you can sneak up on your enemy and shoot them.

You remember playing video games when you needed quarters. You remember when you didn't have second chances. When you couldn't save your game. The good old days. When it's time to buy a new game, while your friends go to the mall, you go on EBay to fill out your sweet collection.

What in tarnation is an Assassins Creed? Never heard of it. All you need is a good old number two pencil and the Sunday crossword puzzle. Or a deck of cards and a sturdy table. Or a chess board. What people don't understand these days is that games don't have to beep and boop to be fun, right?
