Find Your Gaming Style! (CNN)

Recommended Posts

I came across this on CNN and obviously I took the test. I didn't find any questions that had an ideal answer so I was mainly picking the next closest thing. Here's my summary:

 

Strategy

 

You are a power gamer who likes to think your way through complex, realistic problems on the battlefield. You also tend to be a control freak who dreams of taking over the world and like to pit your wit against the best- as long as your character is bigger, tougher and richer than the rest.

 

Take the test here.

I got the following...

 

Shooter

 

Life is a real battleground with you! You love the feeling of success that comes with whuppin someone's butt. You're no pushover and you will fight to the finish. You never let anything get in your way if you want something and you always shoot straight from the hip.

Nah, this test is too simple and easily figured out. You can see from the beginning the four types of gamer you can be. From that it's just a matter of choosing the ones you want. I find a test to be better the more complex its judging mechanism is.

 

... Or maybe I'm just picky?

Sports

 

Admit it, you're sports-mad. The term 'Wii elbow' was probably coined for you. You realize you'll never be a sports super star, but that's what gaming's for right? You love playing in the NFL, picking your own premier league football team or racing down the track in your F1 sports car.

 

Wasn't all that impressed with the test or the available options :heh:

Role Play... there just aren't enough varied categories though, RPG's yes I enjoy them but I also enjoy a varied mix of genres and refuse to be pigeon-holed. :heh:

 

I mean just take a look at my last played games list...

 

Megaman 9, Duke Nukem, Rock Band, Too Human and Soul Calibur IV so thats two arcade games one of which is platforming mostly, the other shooting, RB which is Rythm Action, Too Human which is RPG flavoured hack n' slash and Soul Calibur IV which is fighting.

 

Five completely different genres... pigeon-hole that!

Role Play.

 

Even though I hate most of 'em (especially the turn-based ones).

I got strategy. Though, the quiz wasn't that good. I bet I could make a better one.

Looks like im the only bloody thirsty, action junkie then :)

 

I picked Rambo and still didn't end up being in the shooter category! I picked the sporty options too here and there but missed that group too, lol. Like SCG said though its pretty impossible to pidgeon hole gamers because its highly unlikely that someone sticks exclusively to one genre. I like a bitta strategy, yeah, but I like a bit of everything else too.

Hmmm, I don't think thats too accurate: I got the strategy one. I'm NOT a control freak, nor especially clever.... :(
