You know you're a hardcore gamer if you...

1. Have a list on your desk with all the new game releases scheduled for the next few months or even next year.

* Gotta start saving early right?


2. Ask your girlfriend/boyfriend for a video game on your anniversary.

* I don't know about you, but I'd take a game over flowers any day.


3. Hang on to video game classics even though you must have beaten them a million times.

* In my room, my N64 is sitting right next to my Xbox 360. There's no way I'm giving that away, how would I replay Ocarina of Time for the 8th time?



4. Force your skeptical friends to play your favorite games saying, "Dude just play the first level."

* I made my friend play the first level of Dead Space. He had nightmares the next day. That's what I call friendship.


5. Need your own console.

* Hardcore gamers don't share, unless of course they're broke.


6. Call your friends by their gamertags or PSN IDS when NOT playing.

* Hey it's just a nickname anyway.


7. Have your own custom controller.

* Mine is bright pink, top that.


8. Know all the gaming abbreviations.

* From FPS to MMORPG, no one can say gamers can't spell.


9. Only use an arcade stick for classic fighters.

* Streetfighter with a controller? Bah, no need!



10. Recognize weapons in real life from Call of Duty.

* Is it me or do you feel like your getting a military education from cod?


11. Use Gamefly

* For movie buffs there's Netflix, for us, there's Gamefly.


12. Rock a video game tattoo, T-shirt, or car sticker.

* I don't know how many halo bumper stickers I've seen in the past few years. All I know is that I want one.


13. You're reading this list right now!

* If you can relate to a few of the points on this list, than u must be more than a casual gamer. I'm a hardcore gamer and I'm proud of it!

Vepenator it looks like Zangief is gonna "superfly-snooka" Duke Nukem!!

I've actually forced my friends to try games with mixed results before.
Bought a graphics card last month and couldn't afford anything else for a week.
Pre-Ordered the Special edition Fallout 3 two and a half months before it came out.

Guess I'm a video game nerd
