Tales Posted December 20, 2007 Share Posted December 20, 2007 1: Yes 2: One that buy games both to play and collect them. A gamer must also be a fan of something, series or spesific game. In my opinion if you are no fanboy, you are no gamer. 3: Hardcore gamer Console gamer Import gamer 4: Escapism Just for the sake of it 5: I would say 5+, but there isn't always a game to play, so I guess 3-4 hours average. 6: RPG Platformer(3D) Fantasy(I'm not exactly sure what you mean here) RTS 7: At home. 8: Nintendo Wii Nintendo DS Nintendo Gamecube Nintendo Gameboy Advance Sony PSP Sony Playstation 2 9: Manga and Elfquest 10 Fantasy Historical(movies only) Comedy Ecchi(manga only) 11: Male 12: 17-21 13: Caucasian? Whatever that is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
