Remember when personality profiles were all the rage back in the 90s? Yeah, me either, but it seemed like every magazine available had a personality test embedded in its pages at least once a year. It was by taking those tests that I learned much about myself, such as my inability to answer personal questions honestly. Be that as it may, I was thinking that gamers could use a personality profile so as to better understand their respective Id's.
What follows are a range of questions that will attempt to break down what makes you...you.
1. You're playing a multiplayer first-person shooter game and have the drop on an enemy combatant. The enemy is unaware of your presence as you stand behind him. Do you:
A. Shoot him in the back of the head and go on your merry way?
B. Use a silent knife attack?
C. Toss a grenade and stand back?
Results:
A. You are a no-nonsense player, forsaking style over quick action. It's just another kill to you.
B. You enjoy killing with style instead of taking a sure thing. You're a risk taker and slightly demented.
C. You're the bastard who killed me last night! You probably abuse small animals and need to be monitored by the authorities.
2. You've just purchased a new MMO and need to make a character. You:
A. Create the largest character you can, moving all sliders to the right.
B. Create a character of the opposite sex.
C. Get frustrated with trying to come up with a name that isn't already taken and opt to hit random keys, naming yourself “Xkjgfskjgfeweg”
Results:
A. You're most likely trying to make up for your small stature.
B. You have a conniving personality and have selected a female character for the sole reason of buttering up gullible guys who will gladly hand you gold and items, deluding themselves into believing they have a chance with you. I'm not bitter!
C. You're inconsiderate and uncreative. Now if someone wants to send you a /whisper, they have to type that crap.
3. You own a:
A. Xbox 360
B. PS3
C. Wii
Results:
A. You are a glutton for punishment, willing to risk a daily Red Ring of Death and wonky Xbox Live service...and you even pay a monthly fee for that abuse. You're a masochist that should probably be closely monitored.
B. You enjoy playing Xbox 360 ports on a machine that doesn't sound like a wind-tunnel test.
C. You are known for impulse purchases and tend to be swayed by hype.
4. Someone has just killed you in a multiplayer game. You respond with:
A. “F***ing F****t!”
B. “Lag!”
C. “Great shot!”
Results:
A. Your lack of vocabulary when under stress indicates a stunted intellectual growth.
B. You are proficient at developing weak excuses when times are tough. The good news is, you have a future in government.
C. You don't exist.
