This is a hard question to answer. Over the years games have changed and grown into their own.The short answer is anyone who plays video games. The longer answer is harder to describe. Since there are millions of game types and gaming playforms out there today. For instance all the games on moblie phones today. Yes some of them are a money grab. Yet if you spend more than 5 minutes playing any one of or a few of these mobile video games a day. You are a gamer.
Some may say that a gamer is a child, a person who hasn't matured out of their teen or late childhood years. Some may say being a gamer, or playing games is an addiction. Well I am here to tell you otherwise. Being a gamer I have grown up. I have my own place, I pay my own bills, and I have a Fiancée.
Many people picture a gamer as a person who lets everything else in their life fall apart except gaming. When a gamer gets mentioned many people think of the guy from the South Park World of Warcraft episode. Yet that isn't true at all. In order to be a gamer you have to have the money to support it. Look at the price of a gaming computer, console or anything that comes with those. (Monitors, TV's, controllers, gaming set ups) All these things cost money.
None of the ideas about what a gamer is, is really true. As a gamer myself I have spent hundreds of dollars on just games alone. On my whole set up that is upwards of at least 2 thousand dollars.
Gamers aren't lazy, fat, depressed individuals. We are the kid, working at the local grocery store, the guy working fast food, the car dealer. We are the working people.
As gamers, we don't live just one life. We live many. We are the secret agent, the one person army, the racer, the general leading our armies into battle, we are everything, and anything we want to be.
