I'm a total wuss with scary games (see earlier post re Doom3), but found F.E.A.R ok -only just played (and finished) it for the first time over the past month.

It's jump-scares which **** me right up. And F.E.A.R didn't have those. Found the Assassins (invisible chaps) the scariest bit 'cos they chase you round and do a bit of jumping out when you don't expect it.

Quit a job when I was younger to play EverQuest more.

I had to stop playing that game. Was addicted and realised I wouldn't be married for much longer if I kept playing. Still one of the most incredible gaming experiences.

Spent about £400 over the last 2months on swtor and still don't have a character at 55 :/

I have Half Life 2 on both xbox and PC but I've barely played an hour, I could never get into it. I've also actually only finished a shockingly small percentage of all the games I own.

I have told work im sick when really its release day on a game ive been waiting on.

I have paid hundreds of pounds for virtual ships in star citizen for a game that isnt even released for over a year.

I have also never played any of these, before my time, and broken age looks hella boring not gonna lie

I've played every one of Double Fine's games and enjoyed them (yes, even Broken Age); it's just more a fact that the ones I mentioned are old games now and you can't even get some of them to run. Would love to see Grim Fandango get a port to work on modern systems properly.

I've never finished HL2, Ep1 or Ep2. Bought them all on release however!

I ****** up in college due to WoW. I have a very addictive personality

The Dread Pirate · 25 Feb 2014 at 16:47

I used to play WoW

I Love and still play all of the old school Point & Click & LucasArts Adventure Games except The Dig(Boring so so boring), Grim Fandango & Monkey Island 4(poor writing and nightmarish controls FOR BOTH Grim Fandango & MI IV!) of which I still hate with a passion!

*Flame Shield prepped for Angry Grim Fandango and The dig fans*

I turned off and uninstalled Slenderman because it was too scary.

That's not embarrassing in the slightest!

I did that with the first FEAR when the tiles came off the wall at the start

I cried when Aeris died in Final Fantasy VII

The Guru · 25 Feb 2014 at 16:55

I hate Teamfortress 2 biggest piece of overated bloatware ever!

~Dockie · 25 Feb 2014 at 16:58

I have never played a half life game for more than an hour.
I have only played 2 FF games (10/13)
I have never played morrowind
I have sunk more hours than i care to admit into runescape.
I have only just (yesterday) played a stalker game.
I play CoD on pc now and again.
I have every CS game, but i have never played any of them.

Liquid_Entity · 25 Feb 2014 at 17:00

I have no idea what Minecraft is

agnes · 25 Feb 2014 at 17:03

I started a silly little twitch stream of me playing Amnesia, after 2 eps I couldn't play anymore. Even though it had some people watching and was as far as I could tell, entertaining to the spectator.

My girlfriend wants me to complete it but play Outlast first...

I said no.... I simply can't and won't play scary games, I immerse my self in them too much and I'm not a man

Winky_The_Winking_Turtle · 25 Feb 2014 at 17:03

There's a mod that changes the controls for Grim Fandango and makes it more like a good ol' point and click:

As for me, never played a FF game, nor a Kingdom Hearts, they just look...eh?
