video games are my thing. I love 'em, have you checked out the games & video games forum?, theres more conversations on videogames there.

I'm the weirdest gamer b/c I like the old Dracula Resurrection series I play on my computer.

So if anyone's alone in gaming it's me that's why I don't post in the gamer forum.

I ain't got no Wii or PC. :(

Do you happen to be a fan of the old-school systems? (NES, SNES, Genesis, etc.)

I read that one, it was kind of dumb.

Do we have Aspergers because we play videogames, or do we play videogames because we have Aspergers?

I used to be a hardcore gamer but I was so busy this past semester in college that it broke my video game addiction and now I can't even make myself play anymore.

Despite my username, I'm not much of a gamer. On the rare occasion that a game REALLY impresses me however, I will play said game for days.

The only games that have REALLY interested me are
Mario 64, all pokemon rpgs, earthbound, zelda twilight princess, and of course CHRONO TRIGGER!

For the record, Asperger's is pronouced Ass-bur-ger-s.

I myself could not go more than a week without electronic games, the computer, or Internet.

Video games and the internet are my lifeline, really. Without them I don't think I'd be in very good shape mentally...

In any case, now that I've got my Wii, I'm very keen to spend evenings waving the remote around. It's fun :)
