Which one of those people were you?

I was a console fanatic, but I wish I had been more involved with PC Gaming.

So, which type were you? You could also include handheld if you were like that, too.

PC fanatic, definitely. Now it's kind of inverted, as I get tired of sitting on my *** at my computer doing work for hours.

Early 90s Amiga fanatic/console fanatic _NOT_ PC (as in an IBM clone). Late 90s console fanatic.

Up until 1998, I was strictly playing console games. Then I got a computer in '98 and started playing computer games as well. These days, it's mostly console for me.

Ive always played consoles, except for the occasional WoW. Never really had a computer that could run anything good until about 4 years ago. Now its outdated obviously. Plan on getting it upgraded after the holidays. I still havent played Crysis, and S.T.A.L.K.E.R (havent got to play a good horror game recently and that one seems as if it might be creepy)

Pre-3d accelerator cards I played more PC games than console games. When they started the transition to making PC games that couldn't run on PCs, I returned my focus to console games.

Console. SNES fanatic in the early 90's , Saturn in the mid 90's, and N64/PSX fanatic from 1997 to 2000. I haven't been into video games as much as I was since then so you could say the prime time of my years as a gamer was during the 90's as a whole.

I was more of a pc fanatic, simply for the Sims games and the Black and White game that i had. But of course, i was also obsessed with my playstation 2 and xbox.

I've always enjoyed consoles much more but I do like to play the odd PC game here and there.

I am not and never was any sort of fanatic. When I was younger I played consoles and early PCs (Is Amiga considered a PC?). I read about all games just as I do today.

I played both. I was three when I started playing the PC and got my Snes the same year. I stopped playing PC games from about 2002-2008 because my PC could no longer run games, I bought a new one this year and started playing some PC games again.

Console for the most part. On PC, I mostly played sim games and the occasional RTS.

Console, mainly because I didn't have a PC at home at the time. Any PC games I did play were at my friend's house.

Nowadays, I still play mainly console games, but I play PC games more often. I'm currently waiting for Mass Effect 2.

The Mega Drive & PlayStation dominated the 90's for me. I've only been PC gaming for the last couple of years and still very rarely compared to consoles. Pretty much just the Dawn of War games.
