What Kind of Gamer are you. Back awhile ago I made a website for my HTML class and I wrote an FPS tips guide. Well since I never posted it on line I figured I would place it here.
So yeah what kind of gamer are you?

The expert- This gamer is really good at the game and is probably called a hacker or a pro. Usually this gamer is some kind of developer or is paid to play. Experts don't die and are considered as cheaters.

The extreme gamer- Decked out in all the latest fancy gadgets for gaming. The extreme gamer is pretty good at games but not quite a pro.

The wannabe- This player has what it takes to be a gamer and he has some cool gaming gear, but for some reason he just isn't that good at the game. He likes playing but he still hasn't found what game he is good at.

The noob- Whether he is new at games or he is just starting the game lets face it he sucks. Noob is a another name for newbie or new player. His name is usually the default name that the game has given him such as &quotlayer".

The hacker or cheater- The hacker is only good due to the fact that he has manipulated the game. The hacker usually changes his name a lot so someone doesn't recognize him and kick him. If you see someone leave the game after five minutes even though they were good at the game then they were probably kicked from the server. There are types of programs that will analyze players that join the server. Once it finds something that is not in the normal version of the game it will disconnect you.

The Trash Talker- This gamer has little or no skill. He usually resorts to talking trash to offend people. The trash talker usually like to play with bots or low amount of players.

The Cache Checker- This player is pretty good and he knows a lot of secrets and hidden areas. He likes to either change the level to one with secrets or he likes to look for secrets. He will ask people for secrets and he will show them secrets.

The Sniper or plotter- This player will wait out other people for the perfect shot or if he has a death wish on someone and wants revenge. He will hide and wait for a good kill. Doesn't always get a good score but it doesn't matter, because he gets revenge.

The kamikaze- The kamikaze is a desperate player and wants to fuel his revenge by going berserk. Will rush out with explosives and blow everything up.

Anyways this obviously can't explain everyone but post what you think might be what you are. Just a little fun to read and post topic I thought i would create.

So yeah post what you think you might be and when I created this I originally thought of multiplayer but I am sure some of these can work for single player.

I'm that type of RPG, hack and slash adventure game. I'm not really the type of person who likes online too much.
Except maybe Shell Shock Live. 0_o'

am a run and gun with assault rifles and smgs. and I am an anti air when it comes to LMGs explosives. Campers make me mad which causes angry outbursts making me a trash talker and a hypocrite though.
I think that is more like a style for a specific game (COD)

I am a noob, but a high level because I am the only one who shoots down enemy air support.

I am like this for Elder Scrolls games. I know the famous battles of the First War With the Empire (also known as the Great War), I memerized the maps of Skyrim and Cyrodil, I can tell you what provinces what race came from, and the races that were the first inhabitants of Atmora and Tamriel.

The Sniper Or Plotter.

Except I don't take revenge. I like to lay back and chill.

But if I have to:

The Close-Quarters Guy.

I go on with my high ROF and go hunting them down or getting backstabbed.
