Curious to see what games you guys like to play. This includes video games, board games, and sports. What do you play?
I play World of Warcraft.
Stalker , Guild Wars , Joint Operations .Fallout . And a bunch more .
I am a football and basketball guy... I also love chess and vintage video games!
I like Trivial Pursuit.
Just SCA
My PC is my work PC and it won't run much. I'm just finishing Company of Heroes. Excellent game. My favorite game of all time was Tribes.
We play a lot of card games on the boat but... the one we play the most is Rook. This is game I have been playing for my whole life at my Grandparents house every Sunday. Me and my cousins consider ourselves masters seeing that we can be so competitive and get so made at each other over a card game lol.
Chase the Wife...best game in town. Beats the hell out of silly card games and everyone ends up with a smile on their face that takes 3 Undertakers to wipe off.
Chess,Backgammon,Pool,Basketball,Baseball.
I like games. Most of these are games I can see from where I'm sitting, in the "Dog House" otherwise known as a man cave.
Darts, Pachinko Pinball, Poker (Seven & Five Stud, Five Card Draw, Texas Hold'em Tourneys (online and live), Cow Pasture Pool(I consistently shoot 2 to 3 under I consistently finish with 2 to 3 under the number of balls I start with), just about any board game (all the classics Monopoly, Scrabble, etc.), (exception: [I know I'm going to draw fire for this] I hate Checkers.) I also have several Chess boards but no one to play. Euchre, Cribbage, "Rook", Spades, and I like several types of solitaire. As for Computer Games: Myst, Riven, and that other sequel, LOTR The return of the King, and an old DOS based game called Grand Slam Turkey Hunt it'll piss you off in slow motion, and several PC Pinball games.
And then of course the pizza resistance (to me this is a game)... going to Buffalo Wild Wings and beating them out of a tee shirt whenever I can. Their Hot Wings Challenge is a joke. I always ask for extra Blazin' Sauce to dip them in while I take their challenge just to watch their faces. I consider it only a medium sauce.

I've been wanting to do that and they've built one nearby recently. If they make a big deal out of it like some places do with birthdays, I doubt I'd do it.
On to the games:
As some of you know, I'm a big fan of text adventures.
Playing chess with my son. Spades, tonk, & solitaire for cards. (I keep a picture of a game I won of clock solitaire in my wallet.) I'd like a set of Mahjong tiles for solitaire.
For video games, I like abandonware, preferably DOS with D-Fend Reloaded as a DOSBox front-end. Sometimes I play around with Apple II, Amstrad, C-64, Atari ST, and Amiga.
Console emulators are big fun and I have most that are 16 bit and downward, though I mainly just play NES and Sega Master System games.
Not sure if it counts, but I'm into crosswords like nobody's business.

1) down: preposition
2) down: 3 across
3) across: 1&2 down
Hint: Unfortunately I don't spell well enough to do the Times Crossword in ink.
ratchet and clank
Space,
Would that be cars or S&M?
video game
Forgive me.... I'm an old fart.
Lawrence, you make me smile 
I rarely play games, but even if it takes me months I always play through the Call of Duty series. Still haven't gotten the latest one.
I am terrible at cross words. I don't know how to win at them or even find the right word for it. Scrabble, however, is my forte.
I also love video games. I have to stop playing them for a bit though. Trying to do more biking!
I'm an avid tabletop RPG guy. Name anything made in the last 10 years I've probably looked at it.
right now I'm running Adventure! a 1930s pulp game. having a lot of fun with it.
Used to play WOW then it got boring and time consuming. Now I play chase the pregnant wife, she is 6 months along so she is getting slower.
I played hockey in high school, lacrosse in college (and for a little while after), and now that I can't find anyone to play lacrosse with in VA, I've moved on to rugby.
Texas Hold' em (live and online), Risk, and Scrabble. And Crossword puzzles.
Does jeeping count as a sport?(It's blurry, but you can just make out my corncob)
Fredvegas, absolutely.
Slow smoking is one of the world's greatest sports.
I love games. I don't get to play them as much as I used to, mostly due to a lack of time and competition. Back in the day, I spent a heck of a lot of time playing LAN-based computer games, mostly Marathon: Infinity and Myth, as well as playing a lot of Magic: The Gathering (collectible card game). Since the house and my first child came along, gaming has receded to the XBox or PS2 in the evenings, but now my little girl is turning into a tiny six-year-old gamer. I mean that in a good way. She likes playing co-op video games with me, but she also is really good at checkers and snakes and ladders and is learning chess and Clue. I can't wait until she gives Go a try. She's frustrated sometimes, because none of her friends are interested in games. Partly because her reading skills are quite advanced for her age, and she can sit and read and understand the rules.

I play games with my family on our Wii. I also enjoy a nice relaxing game of Voodoo Vince on my old Xbox. I play poker with some friends from time-to-time, but we haven't done so recently... I used to play Go, but lack of players readily available at the time and frustratingly slow internet connection made it so I stopped playing. Now I have a better computer and fast internet, maybe I'll try it again.

Lawrence, if the London Times cryptics are your go-to puzzle, my hat goes off to you.
I keep telling myself that someday I'll do cryptics, but only when ready for lots of facepalms and shame.
Large sudoku puzzles
I used to play pool frequently...don't get around to it much anymore.
Classic Geek I used to play Magic: The Gathering (collectible card game) also I was really into it and havethousands of cards stored away in rudder made storage containers, one day I will sell them. My favorite game is the game of GOLF.
@scratchglfr: So you substituted one obsession for another? As for Magic:TG, I had a good friend who lived in the apartment below me and we would play quite a bit when we were supposed to be working on our Masters. He and I went in a couple of tournaments, but we never took it seriously enough (spent enough money on rare cards) to win. When he moved away, the cards got packed up. I've still got them, and will introduce my daughter to them soon.
I've got a set of golf clubs and I've played since I was fifteen, but I don't play often enough to get any good. I bought my house backing onto a golf course and thought for sure that I would get to play lots, but what happened? The course shut down within a year and now lies fallow.

Classic. I got into playing magic through other Soldiers it has a good following in the Army. I also spent a lot of money on rares, Hell I was so into it for awhile I even built a deck with all foils LOL. As for golf courses I'm surrounded by them 6 within 15 min drive in all cardinal directions, not enough dead presidents in my portfollio to live on a course YET.
Lawrence, if the London Times cryptics are your go-to puzzle, my hat goes off to you.
Hey Dudley,
No, I'm not into "cryptics" not even the London Times.
That crossword puzzle is one I created when I was in college.
I posted it in the English Department and offered a $20 reward to anyone who could solve it.
No one did.
Anyone have any possible solutions?
Shooting games. They take me back to the days when I could just go out shooting whenever I wanted...
Also, pool, card games and football.
And arguing with other college students. Does that count?

Stumped as stumped gets.
I studied it for a while last night and I'm lost as ever. I'd appreciate it if you'd message me the solution or post it here.
Anything that my 7 yr old wants to play. I also play PS3 war games, Modern warfare, etc.
Not many lately,but my girl friend plays a lot of head games.
"Not many lately,but my girl friend plays a lot of head games. " ANOTHER reason I remain single! LOL!!
I used to play World of Warcraft, but my ex left me and changed the password so i guess I'm not seeing that Level 70 Druid again!
But besides that I play a bunch of games on Steam, and a lot of Flight Simulators.
I've been trying to get my wife to play some "head games"....lol
Trying to play the chord changes correctly when improvising....
