I used to be strictly a console gamer (besides the Sims and Wolfenstein/Doom/Duke Nukem games on PC). But that was before I learned how amazing PC gaming was. Now that I have an actual desktop PC and not just a laptop, I game almost solely on my PC. I do still enjoy some games on the console though, like Dragon Age, Zelda, and Kingdoms of Amalur. I think I started playing a lot more MMO and MOBA games as well, which brought me to being a gamer geared mostly toward PC gaming. So, I prefer PC gaming, but I still respect and enjoy console gaming.

Definitely PC gaming. Console games can't satisfy my need for grand strategies and LoL. Consoles are better or shooters, fighting games, and racing games IMO but that's about it.
That being said, Star Wars Battlefronts 2 was my favourite game back in grade 10 and 11 and now they are coming out with a sequel soon.

I agree with you except that I can't see Zelda being good on PC and that is one of my favourite adventure games of all time. I do agree that consoles are better suited for shooters, fighting, and racing games though. I never played Star Wars Battlefronts 2, what platform was it?

PS2, XBox and PC. Also wikipedia says PSP as well but I think that was a stripped-down version. It was like Battlefield set in the star wars universe.

That sounds pretty cool. I really liked KOTOR. Star Wars universe is just so rich.

I always thought KOTOR was too slow for me but I haven't played it in ages, my tastes have probably changed. I currently a play game that take months to finish (Europa Universalis IV)

No but I've heard some pretty crazy stories about it, especially regarding it's player-run economy and all the scams that go on within it. Europa Universalis is kinda like real-time Total War with a much more simple combat system and much more complicated diplomatic/ economic aspects. It lasts from 1444 to 1820 or so. I really like that you can play as over 200 factions. Obviously some are weaker than others but it makes it more fun in a way if you're looking for a challenge.

Yeah it's amazing. I'm waiting until I build my new PC, which is going to take a few months. But once it's done I'm getting an EVE account and diving in. My boyfriend's cousin plays it and is totally obsessed. I did a trial account but my computer couldn't handle it so I didn't buy the game. The few days I played were really fun though. I also really liked Star Trek Online, but got bored too quickly. As far as MMO's go, I'm most itching to start playing Neverwinter again, I've just not had the time to really sit and game hard like I want to.
