The Top 7... Stereotypical gamers we hate

They shouldn't exist, but they do - avoid these gamers at all costs

Words: Tyler Wilde, GamesRadar US

4. PC Elitists aka </pathetic>

Usually plays: Counterstrike, WoW, Starcraft
Favorite snack: Bawls

These well-to-do social misfits point their pimply, upturned noses squarely in the direction of the millions of folks who own and enjoy consoles. We've got no problem with PC gamers in general, but the elitist punks we refer to won't let us enjoy anything other than PC games without giving us hulking mouthfuls of wretched snark.

Don't bother reasoning with them; they'll simply LOL you to pieces and snidely proclaim that you "just don't get it." That may be true, but you can take solace in what you do get: laid, for one. And probably exercise.

Refrain from pointing out that with the chunk of change they dropped prepping their rig for a nonexistent title, they could've bought any next-gen console they pleased and an ass load of great games... including most of the ones they've busted many a nut over on the PC.

jeez, if I could fit into one of these stereotypes, it'd probably be the PC gamer one. I own a PC and I love it, but I'd never insult any other console or raise it above say a 360 or PS3. I just happen to own a nice computer that can run some games that my Wii can't (I can't believe I bought a Wii...)

Yow. I must be closer to the fringe of gaming society than I thought.

I have encountered all but No. 2 on this list.

the wii-playing family is very good. thats exactly how they are in all the adverts. people that use wiis arent gamers, theyre happy middle class families that have somehow been unaffected by the credit crunch even though they dont go to work and have to pay fines for not sending their children to school. not all wii owners are like that though, all the gamers who bought a wii did so because they thought they might have some decent games e.g. cod but these are very rare and you cant be taken seriously as a gamer if you say you use a wii. any proper gamer will have a ps3 or 360, and will have sold their wii on ebay once they realised it was shit, but before everyone else had.
