Do you or your SO play any "dorky" computer games?

    Hubby is obsessed with "Kings Age" and he has gotten a bunch of his friends into it too.  I make fun of him all the time, but I do love his not-so-inner dork. 

    I'm more a fan of puzzle-type games.

    Do PS3 games count?!

    If so,  WE LOVE LITTLE BIG PLANET!

    Yes I think we do. Are there computer games that are considered non-dorky?

    I love Spyro!  Other than that we play manly games like Star Wars Battlefront and Diablo.

    We met on WoW and still play together. Everyone gets a kick out of how we met, but at least we knew we had something in common!

    haha, I guess there is a bit of a "dorky" element to all computer games but I think that ones like EverQuest, WOW and KingsAge are a little more :)

    I'm not trying to offend anyone, just wanted to know if anyone else felt like a gaming-widow sometimes.

    @ almostduffy - Mine plays Full Tilt.  But the good side effect of that are the loyalty points.  Were getting a huge 46" lcd tv at the end of the month with his loyalty points, for free!  So while he is playing poker, I can watch my HGTV on a HUGE TV!  Lol.

    FI and I played Maplestory pretty heavily not too long ago. Then one of our computers decided to die so we had to stop.  Eventually we'll get a new computer..like when the wedding is over.. :P

    lemon    07/07/07   NorCal!

    I'm trying to think of a "cool" video game that we play... I mean, is Madden considered "cool" but WOW is super dorky?

    If so... we're just avid video gamers? We've both played WOW on/off since debut day (yeah... Mr. Lemon bought the game from the Blizzard peeps at midnight at a Frys release party in OC)... and I <3 Civilization.

    The new Super Mario Bros. game for Wii is awesome because we can both play it together... that's super dorky!

    FI mostly plays Xbox 360 but he only plays 3 games. LOL At least we don't spend a bunch of money on it. We both play FB games also...mainly Mafia Wars for him and I do MW in addition to a lot more. He gets home, checks his mafia wars and then turns on the xbox and I play my stuff on FB. LOL At least they are in the same room!

    @ almostduffy - Lol.  Mine has a PS account, but mostly plays FT, or Cake, sometimes.  He used to host a game twice a week, and I know he misses that.  Maybe when we get a house instead of a condo he will go back to hosting a game.  We actually know someone who won the Sunday Million, last year I think?  Pretty crazy.  Maybe yours will win soon!  Haha...

    We both play WoW, although we haven't been playing as much recently - I've been playing Dragon Age a lot!! He's waiting for his Star Trek MMO beta key and picked up Borderlands the other day. We're big gamers, so i could list a bunch more, but those are the main ones right now.

    FI plays Sudoku on his phone. My old phone had Bejeweled on it and I miss it:-(

    I have never been a huge fan of video games except the old school Ms. Pacman, Frogger, etc. I just totally dated myself! LOL!

    Call of Duty, WOW and online poker (Full Tilt)! I used to complain about much he was on the computer, but now that I've been on here so much, I think he's finally starting to see why I got so annoyed! LOL

    We play a lot of video games, some together some separately. We have a Wii and a PS3, but we also have a PS1, a PS2 and an N64 that currently live in a box in the storage closet, lol. Fiance loves racing games and first-person shooters, I'm more into platformers and RPGs, but we do love to play Guitar Hero and Mario Kart together. So playing video games/computer games isn't really anything out of the ordinary for us.

    However, I'd say that THE dorkiest game we play is Bejeweled. I'm REALLY good at it and it's so funny to see him try to beat my high scores, LOL! We sometimes play it on his iPod-Touch, sometimes online, sometimes on the PS3 (even Bejeweled looks amazing with the PS3's graphics capabilities). It's especially fun to play it on the iTouch when we're flying somewhere. We bring some reading materials with us in the plane and then we take turns playing. We mostly set it on Action mode and then see who gets the best score. I always win, heehee ^_^

    @Laylabelle:  Me too!  I really like Diner Dash and all of the knock-offs of it! 

    The only video game the Dude plays is NCAA Football.  He and some of his friends play ALL THE TIME!  It's crazy!
