I didn't search, and am not sorry if this has been brought up in the past.

Any of you guys gamers?

I am currently playing CS:GO messing around with some Diablo II for the sake of nostalgia.

Farmville, mafia wars, etc doesn't count.

Currently i'm playing Civ 5 and GTA San Andreas on my Mac. I used to play CS 1.6 all the time till I switched over to Mac.
 
War Thunder, Red Orchestra 2, Farming Sim 15, Skyrim, BeamNG.drive to name a few. I've also played just about every MMORPG at some point in the past 10 years.
 
Civ 5(sometimes heavily modded), some telltale games, Empire Earth 1 & 2 plus their expansions. Age of empires 2 & 3 plus their expansions. L4d and L4d2. Shit ton of Pokémon(I own doubles of every game....sad I know). I sold my Xbox 360 and PS3 cuz I felt that the games were all mostly the same and you couldn't mod them which is why I play PC, and sometimes the good stuff on my GameCube and N64.
 
Mostly CS:GO and Overwatch, occasionally TF2 or go old school with AOE 2 (I'd argue it is still the best RTS around)
 
I've built an HTPC or two in my day. Fallout 3 and racing games mostly. But alas that is no more. My lat mac daddy has been relegated to the duties of tv dvr and nothing more.
 
I'm a big fan of the immersive, wilderness environment of The Long Dark. It's a survival game/hiking simulator, rendered in a beautiful minimalist style.

Playing it makes you want to chop firewood, or brew some tea...atypical from my other favorites...Call of Duty and Forza!

I like The Long Dark, it's really fun and the artwork/graphics fit the game really well. The only issue I have is the "survival" mode feels rather boring after many attempts without a real goal; can't wait for "Campaign" to be released. :)

I'm a varied PC gamer myself, love some of the Indy stuff (i.e. "The Fall", Ori and the Blind Forest, JazzPunk, Subnautica, ect.), but I'm pretty into other games as well. Mass Effect, Dragon Age, Titanfall (got Titanfall 2 pre-ordered), Deus Ex, Fallout, Division, Dishonored ect.

My Steam and Origin Accounts are filled with many many games. lol

PC FOR LIFE! CONSOLES DROOL! :O

Old School here

My kids want me to play DOTA, but I'm still with BF1942, GTA V, Rome Total War, Sins of a Solar Empire.

Best game of all time? Star Control 2, remade as The Ur Quan Masters. Coming out with a new version using an engine similar to Sins of a Solar Empire. Unreal Tournament is the runner up, mostly because of the number of mods and user-created addons.

I've found that playing games like GTA and Flatout do affect my driving style, lol.
 
Oh I didnt know we were counting Phone games, Ive played clash of clans since release on the states but now just check in to fill troop requests but for a free game I got 3 years of play. Im now into Star Wars Heroes iOS. Just to hard to play pokemon go' and 4x4 at the same time.

LMAO. I just got done building a "gaming rig". I have always been a console gamer. A hobby of mine is building Android ROMs. So I figured since my comp would have the processing power why not game on it? Water cooled i7 6700K at 4,8GHz. 16GB DDR4 manually clocked at 3000Mhz. GigaByte Gaming 7 mobo. GigaByte GTX 970(new cards released 3 months later:smashputer:). A 500GB SSD for Winblows and a 1TB SSD for Linux.

Stable and fast as hell. Passes Heaven, Valley and Prime95 with out even breaking a sweat. So after setting it all up and stressing it for a few days I got to play some games. Division. Tomb Raider and Xcom2. They all play great on max. Now, the funny part. I still prefer my PS4 for gaming. lol
 
I spent my younger years playing Call of Duty, right up to Black Ops. MW3 killed the entire franchise for me after that. I spent way too many hours on GTA4 as well. Great times playing that game.
 
On my gaming rig I play a lot of Hearts and Spider Solitaire (did I mention my gaming rig is from 1999?). Ski Free and Minesweeper, too.

For consoles, I play a lot of Mario Kart (SNES).

I have an emulator I use to run some Win95-98 games (Syndicate / Syndicate Wars and Carmageddon, mostly).

But seriously though, I haven't played video games much in recent years. The wife so graciously allows me a few hours of free time on the weekends while she takes care of the kiddo. So I usually spend it mowing the lawn and doing other housework. On the rare chance there's time left after that, I spend it in the garage swearing at inanimate objects and transferring small amounts of flesh from my knuckles to car parts.

Yup,

Although I probably spent more time making an awesome rig than necessary considering that I don't have *that* much time any more for games.

I still play a fair bit of Fallout 4 (non triple wide screen format frustrates me)
Online I play Borderlands 2 (because it's still awesome) with a couple of the guys from work.

No Man's Sky was a huge disappointment (Also terrible triple wide support).

My mood changes!
