A gamer is someone (can be male or female) who plays games more than once a week (sometimes even 2 or 3 times a day). I'll just have all you haters out there know that most gamers are not socially handicapped, nerds, and usually have a hell of a lot more friends than non-gamers. Also, if any of you haters out there spent any time at all in the daylight instead of on the internet bashing gamers, maybey you would see that the gaming community is a LOT bigger than you imagined, and I bet that you will find at least one person you know is a gamer.

An oppressed group by society

One who games. A gamer does not necessarilly have to play video games. I don't understand why every single definition of gamer on this site says they must play video games. Video gamers are not the only type of gamers. There are the gamers who play Dungeons and Dragons (D&D), gamers who do LARPs (Live Action Roleplaying), and gamers who just play board games. Some poker players even consider themselves gamers.

A person who plays games. A person who doesn't only play a single genre of gaming or a single console/handheld, thats a fanboy/girl. A gamer is one who games and knows it is a way of life. A Gamer is the highest level of being. Believe what you want,but gamers are the "ones". We Fucking Own.

Any person who plays video games for a hobby. You have your recreational gamer who plays games only once or twice a week. You have your typical gamer who plays games once every day or every other day for a couple hours. Then you have the uber-gamers who dedicate their life to playing video games, either because of an unhealthy addiction or something job related.

A person who plays video games for fun as a pastime or hobby. Anyone who says a gamer is almost always beyond this is not telling the truth.

(n.) a "Gamer" is someone, male or female, who plays video games often. There is no limit to certain games, nor is there a limit to certain consoles. Playing on a computer does not make one more of a "gamer" than one who plays on different consoles. Someone who plays shooter type games does not make them more of a "gamer" than one who plays racing games, either. There are different types of gamers who play different types of games at different lengths of time.
