Video Game Survey

Post by Metalheadz »

EDIT:: Wow, you people hate me. lol

1. What is your favorite game of all time?

My answer: Halo Combat Evolved

2. If you could be one gaming character, who would it be?

My answer: Link or Gordon Freeman

3. What is your favorite genre of gaming?

My answer: FPS or sports games

4. What is your second favorite game?

My answer: Fight Night Round 3

5. What is your least favorite genre?

My answer: Platform games (except for Mario)

6. Do you prefer E-rated, T-rated, or M-rated games?

My answer: M rated

7. Do you like using cheating devices?

My answer: I used to, until my DS crashed because of my friend's AR. :(

8. Are there any games you consider overrated?

My answer: Yes, Halo 3 and Final Fantasy 7. LoZ: Ocarina of Time would fit in here, but it kinda fits in with its ratings on the other hand.

9. What game has the best music?

My answer: I don't really care much about the music, but I'd say Super Smash Bros. Brawl or Halo 3.

10. Is Pokemon the best RPG ever?

My answer: Good game, not the best. FF and KH are better IMO.

Bonus Question:

Is Final Fantasy 7 the best FF ever?

My answer: I've only played the 2nd half of the game, so I can't really make a judgement. FF9 was fun too, but I'd say FF7 is the best in the series. Though it's still very overrated IMO.

I'm only taking this 'cos I'm bored...

1. What is your favorite game of all time?

Tie between Timesplitters 2 and Team Fortress 2.

2. If you could be one gaming character, who would it be?

Cole MacGrath from inFAMOUS. Lightning powers FTW.

3. What is your favorite genre of gaming?

Anything shooty.

4. What is your second favorite game?

World of Warcraft

5. What is your least favorite genre?

Real time strategy.

6. Do you prefer E-rated, T-rated, or M-rated games?

I do not believe the rating of a game has anything to do with how good it is, and therefore I refuse to answer this question.

7. Do you like using cheating devices?

Hells to the naw.

8. Are there any games you consider overrated?

Grand Theft Auto series, Killzone 2, Final Fantasy series, Kingdom Hearts series, Halo series; I can go on.

Rock Band. Duh.

10. Is Pokemon the best RPG ever?

It's pretty good, but gets the crap beaten out of it by World of Warcraft and Fallout 3

Bonus Question:

Is Final Fantasy 7 the best FF ever?

Didn't play it. Dragon Quest is better than FF anyways.

1. What is your favorite game of all time?

RPGs such as Tales of Destiny (PS2 Version) and other miscellaneous really can't make me decide.

2. If you could be one gaming character, who would it be?

No clue

3. What is your favorite genre of gaming?

Action RPG, Puzzle, or Danmaku

4. What is your second favorite game?

Can't answer when I haven't the first

5. What is your least favorite genre?

RTS

6. Do you prefer E-rated, T-rated, or M-rated games?

Doesn't matter. ESRB knows almost nothing sometimes. Also, you're forgetting that some members here go by the PEGI rating system, or even the CERO rating system (like I do for half of my games these days)

7. Do you like using cheating devices?

Only for fun, not for help

8. Are there any games you consider overrated?

So much, I'll just agree with the above ones on this one.

9. What game has the best music?

Tales of Legendia, Go Shiina FTW

10. Is Pokemon the best RPG ever?

No, I wouldn't say best.

Bonus Question:

Is Final Fantasy 7 the best FF ever?

Wouldn't say best either, but it's the one I enjoyed the most.

I voted the answer I did in response to the poll. It's a poll... about a survey. Seriously? Is there any point to it?

1. What is your favorite game of all time?

I dunno... Pokemon Silver? Or Monster Rancher 3... Kingdom Hearts II... Kirby Super Star, Harvest Moon 64, Animal Crossing... Those are the ones I've spent the most time on, anyway. Can't really pick.

2. If you could be one gaming character, who would it be?

One of the Poppy Bros Jr. that rolls around on the giant apples. Them.

No, seriously. Those guys are awesome.

3. What is your favorite genre of gaming?

RPG.

4. What is your second favorite game?

Whichever one's not first on the list from before.

5. What is your least favorite genre?

FPS.

6. Do you prefer E-rated, T-rated, or M-rated games?

First, I don't judge games by their rating, second, there are quite a few games that I think should be rated differently, and third, White Samurai, you can't be older than 13. Saying you play M-rated games doesn't make you cool.

7. Do you like using cheating devices?

Sometimes. It depends. I had fun with my Game Shark for the Gameboy Color. Third play through of Gold Version I hacked my whole team. Had a Growlithe/Lapras - as in, a Growlithe that knew Water Gun and Sing instead of Ember and Growl. Good times, good times...

8. Are there any games you consider overrated?

Halo. Just... Halo.

9. What game has the best music?

Dissida,of course. "The marching band, the marching band is howling" and "salvation man is a cup of fire"... where else can you find lyrical genius like that?

I'm not sure though, honestly. Can't pick just one.

10. Is Pokemon the best RPG ever?

I wouldn't say it's the best, much as I liek Mudkipz.

Bonus Question: Is Final Fantasy 7 the best FF ever?

Haven't played it, can't judge. I'll tell you this much: it's better than 12.
"Irregardless" and "Over exaggerated" are NEVER CORRECT EVER because they are redundant
Regardless means "without regard", and adding "ir" on the front actually makes it a double negative; exaggerate means "to overstate" so you're literally saying "over overstate."
Example: I can not exaggerate the importance of this fact enough, regardless of how often people ignore it.

It was lonely... you promised you'd write to me, but you never did... the months passed by, and I still thought of you every day, but you never called. I never got any letters from you.

So eventually, I started to lose faith... I thought you had been killed in that terrible, terrible war. Or maybe that you had forgotten about me. It's been so long, you probably found another girl over there... I never stopped loving you, but I didn't think you cared about me anymore, so welcoming you back just would have been too painful for me... I'm sorry. I'm glad you've come back home *sniff*

Wha? I don't even look at the games by how cool the ratings are, I made this question cause most of my favorite games ARE rated M. Why do you think they made the ESRB rating system, just to keep age limits for certain games, duh... Sheesh. :/

ESRB, PEGI, and CERO all have their own weird opinions of what's age appropriate.
There are quite a few games that get an A in Japan, 7 in Europe, and T in America. Or even T in America, 16 in Europe, and Z in Japan.

tl;dr
ESRB ratings mean nothing.

Well, I don't really care about the ratings. As long as the game's good I buy it.

Not really, most FPS games (my favorite genre) just turn out to be M-rated. Half-Life 2, Call of Duty, and Halo are all rated M.

Meaning your question about preferring games of a certain rating was unnecessary.

1. What is your favorite game of all time?

Final Fantasy X...though barely.

2. If you could be one gaming character, who would it be?

Tidus (FFX), Squall (FFVIII), Serge (Chrono Cross), Sora (Kingdom Hearts), Mario, or Ash (or whatever main pokemon character)... It's hard to choose. Especially since I'd want to be a character whose game I'm pretty sure I could make it through without dieing.

3. What is your favorite genre of gaming?

RPG. Spefically Japanese console RPGs.

4. What is your second favorite game?

I can't decide. Though Final Fantasy VIII, Final Fantasy Tactics, The World Ends With You, Kingdom Hearts 2, Shadow of the Colossus and a few others are all possibilities.

5. What is your least favorite genre?

Realistic sports games.

6. Do you prefer E-rated, T-rated, or M-rated games?

Couldn't care less, it's all about the game.

7. Do you like using cheating devices?

Do devices that back up saved console games to your PC count? Cause that's all I use. I'd hate to lose all my saves...

8. Are there any games you consider overrated?

Halo probably, though I haven't played enough of it to say for sure.

9. What game has the best music?

I collect game soundtracks, and it's a really tough choice but if I had to just pick one...Chrono Cross.

10. Is Pokemon the best RPG ever?

Hardly. It's fun, but I don't think anyone could seriously consider it the best.

Bonus Question:

Is Final Fantasy 7 the best FF ever?

When it comes to best FF games, it really boils down to personal opinion. FFVII is awesome, but I like VIII and X better.

Hmm looks like I forgot to do this before...here goes.

1. What is your favorite game of all time?

The .hack//IMOQ (it was 4 separate games, Infection, Mutation, Outbreak, and Quarantine) series. .hack//IMOQ is pretty old for a PS2 game, came out about '02, and I absolutely fell in love with its gameplay, characters, and storyline.

2. If you could be one gaming character, who would it be?

Dante from Devil May Cry. He's about as epic as you can get (excluding Gurren Lagann's Kamina of course) in my opinion.

3. What is your favorite genre of gaming?

RPG.

4. What is your second favorite game?

A close call between Final Fantasy 8, the Devil May Cry series, and Final Fantasy Tactics.

5. What is your least favorite genre?

Definitely sports games.

6. Do you prefer E-rated, T-rated, or M-rated games?

T and M games seem to be what I buy more often, but I really don't even look at the ratings.

7. Do you like using cheating devices?

I used to have an old Game Genie for my Game Boy Pocket, but I never even really used that.

8. Are there any games you consider overrated?

Definitely every sport game and Halo. I've never been into Halo and it only got worse as the series progressed in my opinion.

9. What game has the best music?

I liked the music in Final Fantasy 8 a lot. Not amazing, but fitting and nice.

10. Is Pokemon the best RPG ever?

Not the best, no. But a strategy game? Close to top in my opinion. I mean seriously, it's been around for over 12 years now, it's impressive!

Bonus Question:

Is Final Fantasy 7 the best FF ever?

It's good, but I think 8 was good and Tactics had a nice feel to it.

Can't argue with your point on Halo, Nab. Halo 1 and 2 were terrific IMO, but Halo 3 just became bland and vague, and the only reason people played it were because of the minigames. Halo 3 is EXTREMELY OVERRATED.
