That is pretty cool. A newspaper comic strip style comic for SW. Cool.

To answer the question would require a little clarification. Which one is Cole? Define "gamer". Gamer as in "enjoys video games" or gamer as in "up for anything"?

Hmm... well I'm not really a video gamer. Every five years or so a particular game catches my fancy and I wind up living it for like a month. I usually beat any game I take up within three days but I do them the first time doing the bare bones minimum it takes to get through the game. Then I go back and play again a few times and try to get all the little neat stuff along the way.

I once played Space Invaders on an Atari 2600 for like sixteen hours when I was probably 13 or so. My father finally made me shut it off when he saw how bad I had to pee. I was really dancing on the floor and that game had no "pause" function. You played until it was over.

Then I got into Sonic The Hedgehog when Sega came out. I played a couple of the sequels too but thought it got ridiculous when all of a sudden you were planting gardens of little creatures and they started making love stories between the characters.

My favorite of all time where the Jak and Daxter games. Daxter was a wiseass. I loved the weapons and stuff they had too. He had one gun called "The Peacemaker" that could level a school. That was cool.

I beat Grand Theft Auto III in six hours and wondered what all the hype was. Never played any of the sequels.

Now BobaK and some of his friends are talking about a game called Fallout 3 on Facebook which I asked around about and people say it's cool. I might try it.

Other than those, gaming isn't a part of my daily life though. In fact I almost cringe when I hear about how much money and time some people spend with them but then I have hobbies and pursuits other people would see as pointless so I try not to judge. I am into computers and operating systems in a big way. I love some of the Linux operating systems out there now and firmly believe Linux will supplant both Windows and MacIntosh as the operating system of the future. It pays to get in on the ground floor and build a knowledge base.

Other than that, if that is what this guy Cole is like then I am like that too. If not, then not so much. Long answer I know but you caught me killing time until dinner is ready .
