Do you ever play computer games? Which one(s)?

I used to play the Sims and Rollercoaster Tycoon, but i got sick of them pretty fast.

No--unless you count the NYT's crosswords on line.

I play solitaire on my Palm V about 2 or 3 times a year.

Never play Snood. It's way too addictive.

Yup...almost every time I'm on the computer! I play the basic computer games like solitaire, hearts, and this one game I love...Super Tetris.

No. I just don't really have time anymore.

Sometimes I play The Sims, and I have a copy of Homeworld. I like interactive fiction too. I don't think I do much else; I do have a Playstation but that's video games.

Not in a long while. When I was 14 or so, I was heavily addicted to Atari cames (remember Space Invaders and Asteroids even Pong). I did briefly pay Myst which I thought was really cool, but I didn't have the interest to keep with it. I also had to stop playing Tetris when I started to see the pieces falling before my eyes when I was not playing the game, like standing on the subway during my morning commute.

I guess the closest I come to being obsessed about anything is playing Free Cell on the computer. I play it at every free moment. Before I discovered that, it was Solitaire. I have convinced myself that constantly playing Free Cell keeps my brain cells alive, healthy, and strong.

yep ... I like strategy type games - civilisation 2, sim city, pharao.....

Recently I've been playing Snow Ski Tycoon and Joust the most.

Great question! Yes I do. My new obsession is Diablo II (with the expansion). Great stuff!

Not really, no.

Some. I play cribbage online at yahoo, and some counter-strike, but mostly I play games like age of empires--strategy games where you have to conquer the world.

Johanna, 18

i, like many others, have become addicted to the sims.  it's probably the only computer game i ever play.

Becky, 16

Yup: I like to play Jeopardy, Blake Stone, and Duke Nukem...

I play computer games every once and a while. I play the games the company Hoyle makes. I like card and board games.

Heather, 15

No

Janet, 42

Yup, all the time. Usually it's strategy games like Caesar III, Rollercoaster Tycoon and Civilisation. I go through periods where I'm addicted to one game and I'll play that obsessively for a while before getting bored. My computer's a relic though so I don't have the specs to play the games I want. I have a few emulators on my hard drive that are great fun when I'm in the mood, and also a Playstation 2.
