Will you always be a gamer?

Ones a gamer, always a gamer. It's not just in the blood, it's in the genes.

I guess it depends, if I have spare time or nothing to do, sure.. i'll play or if a good game comes out

I would vote it there was an option for something like "maybe, maybe not depending on how my life goes". I like to play games, but I don't want to as a profession.

How could you not want to be pro? Think about it, you make money playing games, sitting on your ass 18-hours a day,lol! It would be AWESOME!

heh-only if you have some pretty rocking sponsors....
Personally I think I will always game, but the levels of gameplay will drop off.... Summers (highschool currently starting college next semester

) I play a TON of video games, host and attend lan parties get re-addicted to WOW 'n all that good stuff. When it really gets rough at school thoughone week ill play like 2 minutes on a flash game and the next like 20 hours of COD4... I dunno though I finally kicked my WoW addiction

so hopefully I can remain my commitment to gaming with some real games!

How do you actually go pro as a gamer?

CPTMuller · 05-07-2008, 05:45 PM

There are a number of ways depending on the game. In something like CS 1.6, you have to make a name for yourself in the Cal Leagues... For something like WoW you have to make a name for yourself on BG9, or the Tourney realm... There are some lan centers that sponsor teams (Howies Game Shack for example).

whoa. to all of the people older than 30 still playing video games, WHAT ARE YOU THINKING?????!!??!?!?!?

Games = For Kids.

ok, i understand if your a teenager or in ur 20's, but come on, why would you play games at 50? do you have no life?

anyway, i probably wont be a gamer for ever, probably until i am in college, i think in college it's time to stop.

Games aren't only for kids. GTA 4 is a great example. That game definitely isn't for kids...even though I know kids are playing the game.

Interested how do u get off saying that.. Games arent for ne specific age.. and i myself have many uncles that do even my grandpa plays pc games. ur only 13 but once u get up in age as my GPa tells me u tend to have more free time on ur hands, and u cant do stuff that u could when u were younger.. but i have like 4 uncles that play CSS and one that plays halo 3, shoot even my buddies dad joins us on halo 3 sometimes..
