What got you into the specific game you play, and WHY?

[SenSeiFAR]

In this thread, we shall discuss, WHY we play video games, and WHY that particular genre/game.

[SenSeiFAR]

I'll start.

I got into gaming, coz it's the only place I can find any peace of mind, and it's something I am good at, so I carried on. Later, it turned out that ONLY gaming relieved me of my issues, like anger, depression and other mental issues. I specially play FPS games coz I imagine shooting the person I am mad at or dislike, and it help calm down. And I play sport games, just to prove to others that ALL star players in a team don't win, nad to prove, WHAT IF, that team tried this tactic, they could've won and so on.

Everyone share your points. =]

I play FIFA since 2000, because it's a great game! I love football, but that doesn't influence it.

I play RPGs, because of the great stories!

I play FPS, only if they have a great single-player stories, or if they are a massive multiplayer hit.

I play, DotA, because it not a game anymore! At least not to me. A game is mych simpler, which clearly it is not.
