When you play games like Fable or Bioshock, they give you the option to be the good guy or bad guy. Who would you choose on your first playthrough. I'm usually the good guy since I am a good guy in reality. I will admit I made mistakes, but I've never done any bad things like cheating on my girlfriend, bullying people, or threatening to kill someone. Also when I play the bad guy and I see the bad ending, it just disgusts me so I prefer having a good ending. What about you guys?

Usually I will choose neutral if it's there (like in Fallout 3) cause I'm not a bad person, although I've never really done anything to be proud of. And I have a couple of regrets, but nothing that bad. Afterwards I choose good, and then I choose evil when I know everything and I get to do whatever I want.

I always play as the good guy and I never play it again as a bad guy. If I do replay the game I'll still play as a good guy. At most I'll play somewhere in the middle, like a neutral person who doesn't take every mercy mission in the game. I don't want to be a bad guy in real life so why would I want to be a bad guy in games?

I always play the good guy in my first playthrough and my second playthrough will be a bad guy. A game play Mass Effect 2 for example has such a contrasting experience with good or bad that you just have to play both to get a really good experience.

I will play through it a couple times to get all the endings. But if I could only have one then....BAD!!!!

Good as much as possible but in some situations I have to be bad, like in Fable II when you can either make yourself fugly or make a girl fugly (I think it ages you or something). And I chose the girl because I thought my character looked badass and didn't want him looking retarded. lol apart from that though, I was good all the way through...I just killed a bunny wabbit
Oh but on the second playthrough I did all the bad stuff and now I have demon horns! :P And I shag everyone coz I'm a "horny devil".

Always good.I am a good person in rl and I hate doing bad things in games.
Though the NPC's in Fable 2 are very annoying so sometimes I dont mind being bad lol

Hmm depends which game and what is better to be good or bad. It tends to be good more since games like Fable and bioshock aim for you to be good more than bad.

To get the best experience I always play good first then play bad. Remember its only a game, just because you do bad in video games doesnt make you bad in real life.

Well it depends how you look at it. I mean look at Fable. If you're bad you end up looking ugly. If you're good you end up looking handsome lol.

Had to admit though that video was tops. I LMAO, definitely entertaining. What's really funny is how these crazies say that people are being brainwashed by video games meanwhile the crazies are brainwashing some of those listening to them lol.

I usually play good guy. But I've spent many hours, in GTA, going on nonsensical murderous rampages to see how many cops and pedestrians I can blow up, shoot, and set on fire until the tanks roll in and blow me away. Good clean fun.

I honestly dont like different ending games. I find it tedious to play the same game with the same gameplay just to see some tweeks here and there for the storyline. So neither nor.
