I've never been one to play video games, but I've been playing that new UFC game with my buddy the past few weeks. Now I think I might have to break down and pick up a PS3 so I can play it at my house. My girl has been wanting me to get one anyway so that she can get the new guitar hero so it'll take care of her wants and mine so it's a win-win deal. She's also talking shit about beating my ass on the UFC game so now I feel obligated to put a hurting on her. I just feel like a big kid going and buying a video game system. I know a lot of people play, I've just never really taken into it

I'd say these days there are as many adult gamers as kids. Most of the good games are rated M for mature. I played the demo to the UFC game and it is pretty sweet. That new NBA game with Michael Jordan is really pulling me in. I might have to break down and buy that one.

Never been that kind of a gamer. Loved the old arcade games when I was young (damn, that really shows my age). I have emulators that will allow me to play ROM images from them, and that's all I like to really do as far as gaming with the exception of some arcade-style games that were made for the original Playstation. I have an emulator for that on my Mac, too.

my gf bought me one, but I didnt ask for it. I just dont have time to play games between work, gym, school, and maintaining a house by myself.
the dvd feature gets used mostly. I haven't fired up a game on there in weeks. Almost seems like a waste.

Yep, the old pinball games--can't find a good working one around so much these days. It took talent to nudge those things to keep the ball in play and rack up the score.

My PS3 gets used for the occasional movie... and I use the usb plug to charge my phone.

I really should get UFC undisputed, but I feel like I don't have time to play games either. Work all day, get home, eat, train, get home, eat, shower, sleep and repeat. On weekends, I add more sleep and do laundry. Doesn't sound like alot, but somehow video gaming doesn't seem to fit comfortably into that schedule for me.

Plus I don't know how to work the damn controller, haha. I miss Super NES. That was the last video game system that I was addicted to in my teens... could never get enough Mario and Donkey Kong lol.

Dude, that's what I'm saying! I don't even remember the last game with Jordan in it.
