  • Anyone who's willing to spend time on video games, I think. It doesn't matter which games you prefer, or which console, just as long as it's something you love and consider a hobby/lifestyle/job.

  • A gamer is anyone who chooses to spend their valuable free time playing video games. Tis that simple. There are of course varying degrees of gamer, from the hardcore never leaving his room, to the casual who just plays Facebook games. But choosing to waste your time on a video game, makes you a gamer.

  • i totally agree, its like nowadays if you dont have an xbox or a ps3 with mw3 then your not considered a gamer.

  • Yeah it's an handheld console.

  • Ds isn't a console, it's a handheld

  • the nintendo 64 was latest console? at the beginning of the video you were playing on a nintendo ds!

  • red lantern shirt ftw

  • A gamers someone who likes pie, duhh!

  • Heh we have on of those pokemon 64 things at school

  • HOLY CRAP!!! you have a N64 pokemon?!?! I've never seen one!!

  • Come to think of it. Why does a lot of people get invited to them events who knows nothing about games, nor even play games. This bothers me. By the way this is not an Attack at you just wanted to get my point across.

  • Ok box to comment in. First of all dont get me wrong this video is very funny and you seem like a friendly enough guy. But why oh why did you get invited to the Golden Joystick Awards.

    Correct me if im wrong but I wouldnt class you as a "Gamer" used loosely these days.

    So why? Because you did a few videos about Video games and your popular lol. England?!?

    So you did a video about your beard - So Wilkinson sword would invite you to a new product opening or yeah right whatever. This bothers me

  • i <3 my nintendo 64 but i really wanna get the pokemon one and legend of zelda ocarina of time

  • You looks like Keenan Cahill.

  • I own Legend of Zelda ocarina of time, but I have no Nintendo 64 :(

  • How about Sims 3? :)

  • A gamer is someone who plays games, no?

  • but...but... i love the sims!

  • @IIITrickzIII hence the scottish accent ;)

  • a gamer is someone who has fingers and can, therefore, play any game... and not in a sexual way.

  • WAAAAAAIT, are you scottish?!

  • a true gamer is one who has played all three mario bros on the nes

  • OMG they made a pokemon edition of the N64?! D:

  • That is a good question, that I've thought a lot about as well. Basically, I've come to the somewhat-conclusion that to be a gamer, you need to enjoy playing lots of different games, have an appreciation for more than one genre, have gaming knowledge and some amount of skill, and spend a good amount of your time playing games. E.g.: If you spend all your time playing WoW and only WoW, unskillfully, you're not a gamer. I would put myself under the category of "Fan of Games" rather than "Gamer.

  • @RememberTheTrees

    Or maybe you just have to play games, lol.

  • You are the COOL kind of gamer.

  • We still have an Atari.....

  • i love the sims

  • mini heart attack when he threw the DS

  • @onetoomanyfreckles *pokémon (accent was wrong :P)

  • @onetoomanyfreckles I KNOW! It's really depressing... I love Pokèmon! :3

  • YAY! I've got the same Nintendo 64! :-D

    When you start it, Pikachu's cheeks light up. :-) So great!

  • I prefer older games over the newer ones as well. I like the newer ones but I LOVE N64 and super Nintendo, and gamecube, gameboy color, gameboy advanced, dreamcast etc...mario zelda(favorite) pokemon etc..

  • OH MY GOD!! I LOVE YOUR N64!!!! :D

  • Plus I like Portal, me and my brother play it all the time :3

  • Like any normal teenage girl (...) I play things like Uncharted and Tomb Raider but also Zelda and Pokemon. I swear no girl plays Pokemon any more! I am the sadist teenage girl alive...

  • can't believe he said that about sims, obviously never played sims3

  • At first i was like OMFG AWARDS SHOW and then I saw "Alienware presents" and then I was like ew.

  • Lawl, The Sims 3 is the only game I ever play :3

  • And girls become OH MY GOD A GIRL!

  • I read books. Yup.

  • Zelda Ocarina of time, and Majora's mask N64, love them!!!

  • A gamer is someone who actively plays games, and considers it one of their main past-times

    You should check out my video response.

  • subbed:)

  • What about people who only play board games? Or card games? Or chess? Can they still be counted as a gamer? The games they play may nit be electronic but they're still games.

  • Don't let my user name fool you I'm not a huge gamer.

    I only am a little bit, a nentendo gamer!

  • I think a gamer is just anyone who understands references, either if they have only heard of the game or if they sit in their room and play all day.

  • ...Mighty MORphin' Power ranGers...xD I actually paused it at what it said...o_O I have lots of free time...xx

  • I like books :) don't hate me :(

  • Anyone who plays a game is a gamer

  • *deep inhale* I DON"T KNOW WHAT THAT IS!

  • and girls become OH MY GOD A GIRL!!!!

  • omg, that n64. need.

  • I have the sims 3 and 2 but I also kick my guy friends ass at dead or alive 4 :)

  • POKEMON! (what happened to you?) <3

  • AAAAAAAAHHHH pikachu  N64

  • Your little one frame commentaries are getting increasingly harder to catch.

    I have never considered myself a "gamer" per say but i suppose i kind of am in retrospect. i play mostly zelda, but a recent romance has interested me in other games such as Portal, Left for dead 2 and...plants vs zombies.

    but i suppose making it a personal goal in my life to write down the entire script of Ocarina of time probably qualifies me to some extent as a game nerd.

  • In my room I have a NES with tetris, mario bros/duckhunt, and paper boy., a N64 with pokemon stadium, mariokart 64 golden eye and ZELDA, a gameboy color with pokemon blue, yellow, red, platinum, white, tetris, and donkey kong. All Nintendo. All older than me (well not all of them but damn we're about the same age) I have a playstion TWO also old. and the newest thing I have is a wii. I think being a gamer is just being passionate about games that you love to play. It's not about being up to date

  • I actually get people on my back every now and again just because I prefer old games as well. It kind of bugs me because they may be old, and have less superior graphics, but does that take down the merit of the game? To me it certainly doesn't. The only game newer than a Gamecube game that I've beaten in\s Portal 2, simply because newer games don't seem to hold my interest very well.

  • How does playing sims make u a sadist?!

  • I believe a gamer is someone who plays video games for a hobby. No matter what video game. However there are such things as an Avid Gamer or a hardcore gamer. Just different levels. My main hobby is video games but I do not spend my lie around video games. So I would find my self just at Avid Gamer level. Above just a given Gamer who plays video games just because and then below hardcore gamer where Gaming is their life.

  • "And I know that Call Of Duty Live is where boys become men and then men become boys and then girls become 'OH MY GOD A GIRL!' :D!"

  • Okay mmm first I must say I love the shirt and the Pokémon Nintendo64. -3 Alrighty what makes you a "gamer?" Honestly I don't know how to answer such a question. Err, I think that if you have a passion for playing video games then yeah your a gamer...it doesn't matter if it's old school ( Sonic, Zelda, or Pokemon) or new ( MW3, GoW3, or Halo) gaming is gaming. :-)

  • Mighty MORphing Power ranGers

  • DFTBA

    

  • i think a gamer is just someone who plays video games a little more then your average lazy ass and is relatively up to date with new ones, and knows a thing or two about the classics. :]

    now time to play skyrim some more ;D

  • RED LANTERN SHIRT

  • ...but i love sims 2 :(

  • Megadrive you noob!

  • I think you'll find Sims 3 makes you a sadist.

  • Wow this guy is the spitting image of me it's scary. Honestly like looking in the mirror. We even have the same hairstyle. Anyway...what constitutes a gamer? Well depends really... It would seem pointless to even use the term to describe people who simply play games as everyone from nans to babies play these days. In essence everyone is a gamer. Though it seems silly to use it as a negative stereotype as well.

  • These videos make me really happy for some reason :)

  • I think being a gamer is anyone who likes to play videos games. Gamer is a very vague term in my opinion.

  • I play Zelda, Sims and Call of Duty ... am I a gamer?!

  • I think being a gamer means you have fun playing video games. For me, I'm pretty bad at video games but I like them and have a lot of fun playing them. I think that's all that should matter.

  • where boys become men men become boys and girls become oh my god girrrlss

    hahhaha made my day

  • it took me about 20 times to get it to pause where you put MMORPG stands for.

  • Sadly... I still have an Atari.

  • @soccer8sarah having an Atari is nothing to be sad about x}

  • whether you play pokemon red/blue or pacman or call of duty. As long as you enjoy what you're playing I think that is what makes a true gamer.

  • Modern Warfare 2.

  • Mighty MORphing Power ranGers? XD

  • To me a gamer is anyone who enjoys playing games and can appreciate the effort that goes into making them. It doesn't matter how serious you play, what you play or what you play it on. Just enjoy it. So it makes no difference if you play WoW, CoD, NFS or any other major title or you prefer indie stuff. One more thing... you are not a gamer if you play sims.

  • down with the sims !!!!!!!

    

  • to me, a gamer is anyone who commits enough to finish a game.

  • Happy medium between fatty on couch and casual normal person

  • What makes a gamer? Im my opinion a gamer is anyone who likes to play games. Me, I love playing nintendo, super mario, i want zelda, bla bla bla. I will consider you a gamer, as people consider me. I am a gamer, not a player. Thats wierd!

  • ZELDA! Any Zelda, anywhere, anytime.

  • My favourite games: Mario Kart DS/Wii, Super Mario 64 DS, Animal Crossing Wild World. I was obsessed with video games (especially these) from ages 11 to 13. I spent most of my time playing video games or on the gaming forum called Neoseeker. I think I was a real gamer. Now I'm a casual gamer and obsessed with Spongebob :D (I'm nearly 16)

  • Portal 2 woooo :) does that make ME a gamer

  • ZELDA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!

  • ZELLLLLLLDDDDAAAAAAAAA!! <3

  • Mighty MORphing Power ranGers LOLLOLLOL

  • I love my N64 :) My favorites are Mario Cart and Gauntlet Legends. I also like to play a lot of the old Dos games like Commander Keen, Paganitzu, and Crystal Caverns, just to name a few.

  • Puzzley games like Portal but also puzzles, the ones with pieces you do on tables! That's a game! Just...less advanced. No but seriously, any games that include a good deal of problem solving are good with me :D I am probably not a gamer...

  • Mighty Morphing Power Rangers!

  • i have the pikachu nintendo 64 !

  • Mariokart and Dr. Mario are the two N64 games I rock at :) Honestly, being a gamer just means you like videogames and have at least one that you can start up a conversation with another gamer about. Usually a competitive game, or one like Zelda where you're trying to beat the game. Ones like Sims don't count because there is no end and nobody to OWN... which is kind of the point of gaming. And yes, Sims makes you sadistic... I still have my purple see-through N64 sitting in the living room :D

  • If it makes you feel any better, the only gaming systems I own and play is a Sega Genesis and a Gameboy Advance. My next step is acquiring a N64 to start my Zelda career. Sadly I started playing the gameboy game first, and I think it's high time I do it the right way. And Mario of course, but mostly Zelda.

  • @Skyyzander You should really track down a copy of Mariokart, and Goldeneye, if you can. Those two are also fairly quintessential ones.

  • @american09mutt I can't say I'm a fan of Goldeneye, but I'll definitely get Mario Kart. I've played through the N64 version at my fiend's house and thoroughly enjoyed it. I really want to get Pokemon Stadium as well :D

  • Okay, before you even said what the console was, I thought, "When did they make a Pokemon N64 edition?!" :D <3

  • it's someone who is in a gaming society

  • lucky!! you have a nintendo 64 and went to the golden joystick awards!!! I'd consider myself a gamer, because I play games, I enjoy most of them, and (most importantly) I try to bite anyone who tries to take my nintendo DSi away from me.

  • I scream at my tv when I play Kingdom Hearts, and Tony Hawk. Though I play Sims quite alot

  • ZELDA! If you like zelda, gamer or not, you're awesome!

  • @linkylova wrong! it's all about assassin creed!

  • @AppCrashable Assassins creed is also really awesome!

  • I'm not a gamer so.....

    I play Sims, but that not exactly a "gamer game", even though I have almost every Sims game that has been released.

    I think a gamer is.....well, I'm not sure.

  • yah i didnt know what that was i could only guess 1:20

  • I don't know if I can be considered a gamer. All my friends are gamers, I know a shitload about games, we have long, in depth conversations about games, but I can't actually play games. Well, I can play Guitar Hero, but I don't think that counts...

  • Gamer: [That would be me]

    Sleeps: 7 hours a day [49 a week]

    Plays: 16 Hours a day [112 a week]

    About that 1 hour ... i leave it to your fantasies.

  • I think whats makes a gamer is someone who plays everyday or maybe even every other day

  • Mighty MORphing Power ranGers? Win. <3

  • I recently got Uplink and it was amazing!

  • You're quite jolly for a Red Lantern.

  • 1:15 HERP DErP

  • A gamer is someone who plays a video game as the major activity of the day more than once a week.

  • 1:37-41 is my older brother.....

  • My favourite video games are probaly the ones on coolmathgames. :P

  • I have that N64. :)

  • Oh my god, I have that EXACT SAME STAR WARS POSTER.

    And yeah, OMG A GIRL has been something I've heard way too much.. considering I'm like the only female Star Wars fan in my school...

  • You are fantastic. The classic games are the ones I like best(: Although I'm trying to play some of the more recent Legend of Zelda games as opposed to just OOT and Majora, and as I type, Twilight Princess is paused on my TV screen(:

  • So my thoughts on it is that it doesnt just take a person who enjoys video games to be a "gamer" you need to be interested in them. love the way they work and the thought that goes into them. Retro video games are the best because they are the base of where they came from. we couldnt have games like COD or NHL12 if there wasnt those overly simple games for systems like the NES. But seriously you arent a gamer if all you do is play Call of Duty online, then you just need to get a life ;)

  • This man looks like David Tennant, or, in the real world, the 10th regeneration. I am now subscribed.

  • *sigh* I swear this is the last of my biased comments.

    ...and literature, both of the fantasy and sci-fi genres. Many of them rise to greatness as artists, be it as a writer, a musician, a film director or a video game programmer. These individuals are the pinnacle of the internet community, polite yet above everyone else. Now, I'm really getting bored. Find the rest out yourself.

  • And on to the fourth and hopefully last post:

    They are usually devoid of grammar and cannot post coherent sentances. Punctuation? Bitch, please! He is usually of an aggresive personality and shuns no chance to diminish his opponent, be it in conversation or a gaming session. Moving on to the Nerd:

    The Nerd is a hardcore gamer of the next level. They are the cream of gamers, prefering the genre RPG, these fabulous individuals are avid fans of games, films and literature [to be continued]

  • Fuck it, I'm continuing. Despite the impending inconsistency I will say that hardcore gamers have a much deeper understanding of game mechanics and gaming terms than casuals. They tend to favour one genre, but are well versed in other genres as well.

    Now on to the so called douchebag gamer:

    This gamer plays exlcusively Call of Duty and Guitar Hero. He (because they are always male) usually has a YouTube channel on which he "pwnz n00bz" and "rocks da house like a pro!" or something similar.

  • Continued from previous post:

    A hardcore gamer is an individual whose primary hobby is gaming. They will spend at least 3-5 hours a day playing video games. They are very informed about games, subscribed to numerous game related YouTube channels and frequently visit official and unofficial gaming forums. They are usually if not always familiar with internet culture, and generally enjoy the internet and are part of some sort of internet community. You know what? You know enough now.

  • A gamer is an individual who plays video games regularly, has a basic understanding of game mechanics and is familiar with basic terms. There are several types of gamers. The two basic ones:

    Casual gamers, are gamers who play only on the weekend or just whenever they don't have anything else to do, preferably with friends, without putting too much thought into it. They aren't associated with any particular genre except perhaps party games. Damn, I can't finish my comment here.

  • I think i would be an intense "gamer" except for the fact that I am 14 with no money, so I end up watching LP's and walkthroughs.

  • OMG I HAVE THAT ZELDA!! <3

  • "I know about CoD online, where boys become men, men become boys and girls become 'OH MY GOD A GIRL!"

  • I play video games every now and then, but I don't think I count as a gamer (even though I would like to). A gamer, imho, is someone who plays on a regular basis (at least once a week?) AND who also keeps up with knowledge about new releases.

  • YOU sir. Are a legend right now.

    Particularly because you have a Dr. Seuss quote on your wall !

    But also your wonderful videos contribute to it :)

  • You might want to lock up that Nintendo 64. It might disappear sometime soon. :P

  • I AM EXTREMELY JELLY of your Nintindo 64. Mine broke and I was like 'fuck you too'

  • @FrmAndDncn SAME :3

    

  • Mystery pink drink calms the soul.

  • You. Are. RIGHTEOUS af. :D

    Zelda is by far the greatest game ever created and N64 is fucking amazing. Mine is simple and black.....GIVE ME YOURS, PLEASE? c:

  • i'm pretty sure a gamer is anyone whose turned down the opportunity to go out with friends, for a video game.

  • Ah, Liam called me a sadist, but he has the game so he's a sadist too. :D

  • Bahaha. I've played Sims twice in my life.

  • I have a Nintendo64 to but yours is so mug cooler I want one like that.

  • @FrmAndDncn OMG I didn't bother to read your comment and actually took 10 minutes trying to read the words that were right in front of me in your comment -_-

  • I'm defiantly a noob, but I'm interested in entering the vast land of all that is gaming... any suggestions?

  • wait.....where did you get the copy of Sims2?

  • YES. I AGREE SO MUCH.

  • I like SNES.

  • "Might MORphing Power ranGers" :')

  • Umm as you said Sims is not a game I have your video in a minimized window and I have Sims 3 hogging the other side of the screen. Although I do understand it being sadistic haha.

  • OMG A GIRL!!!!

  • You probably hear this ALL the time, but you look and sounds kind of like David Tennant :)

  • YouTube hates me.. It won't let me watch you :( xx

  • i dont really think that what type of game makes you a gamer. i think it's just if you really like to play video games in general it makes you a gamer

  • Is it just me who giggles like a schoolgirl when he is having the mentle breakdown then drinks juice and smiles? Cause I sure hope I'm not the only one... :P

  • Can i steal that N64 from you?.... also SuperNes FTW xD and gameboy and gameboy color.. I love Classic videogames <3

  • Juice makes everything better.

  • @FrmAndDncn thank you! I was trying for about five mins before I came across your comment :)

  • The Dalek poster kind of makes the video.

  • I don't agree! Sims is actually the BEST GAME EVER!

  • hahah yeah like gamecube...... pretty old

  • I know I'm a sadist. But it's sooo much fun to torture them. :)

  • *disappointed

  • who was dissapointed that MMORPG stands for mighty morphing power rangers

  • ...but then I had some juice and I felt better.

  • YOU ALWAYS HAVE THE BEST CLOTHES EVER!! I want that shirt:/ i only has the green lantern one and a blue lantern one

  • A gamer is anyone who plays video games and enjoys them. It doesn't matter how aged a game is or how new or how idiotic the fanbase is. if you enj
