The Class ClownReckless Sociable Fun Veteran (RSFV)

Why is everyone taking games so seriously? They should lighten up -- it's your job to entertain and mix it up. Your philosophies: rules are made to be broken and games are your playground. The more the better - you're a crowd pleaser and enjoy all the attention to your antics!

You're an old hand at games - you know exactly what games are the best to showcase your talents. You love being creative, so games that let you cut loose and express yourself are winners. Tight games that restrict your movement, are too competitive, and have too many rules make you suffocated and grasping for air.

Your job in most games is clear: show everyone how to have fun and not take life too seriously. After all, it IS just a game right? Most people love you for your antics, some despise it, but screw them - they just don't know how to have fun. Class Clowns are highly sought after in guilds or clans, but watch out, add too many and your community will be a joke.

Pretty much spot on.. LOL.

Who else will play an Fortress Forever for 45 minutes, not shoot a single bullet and spend the entire time giving the other team AIDS?

Let’s talk racing games because I know I’m not the only car enthusiast here!

I used to be a console-only racer because I preferred the joystick over the keyboard, but then I invested in a decent wheel and pedals for the PC and got a few racing games and fell in love with PC simulators.

Really, the first racing game I loved on the console was Rallisport Challenge for Xbox. There was NOTHING that could touch that game. I didn’t know what rallying was when I picked up the game, but I knew it looked fun in the videos and pictures. After beating it, my friend and I became VERY competitive against each other. Then Rallisport Challenge 2 came out and that’s when I got into rallying pretty heavy. I wanted a Subaru since I played the first Rallisport Challenge (which, I do own a Subaru now… haha), then last year, I attended my first rally in the Rally America series up at Wellsboro, PA. Damn, that was a good time. Whoever said games don’t influence real life?? Hopefully in the next five or six years, I will be able to compete in one or two rallies and manage to keep the shiny side up .

Last December, I picked up a steering wheel and pedals for my computer and a copy of WTTC 07. For s&g, I turned off all assist and made it as realistic as possible… and I fell in love with it. I picked up DIRT and GRID, and while I love DIRT because it’s everything offroad, it just doesn’t play as smooth as GRID. My only gripe with racing games is that there is never an editor that comes with them. I’d give my left *clears throat* and my first born to make rally stages. Does anyone know of any good racing games that include a level editor?

So what racing games do you like? It’d be neat to get a mapcore group together =).
