So basically a tie between seeker and mastermind... If I had to choose, I'd probably say seeker, though I haven't actually read its description yet. At first I thought the fear thing was a bit over-exaggerated, but then again it might be true. I do like the occasional close-call-situation (like, being low on ammo against a large number of foes or something :P), but then I've never enjoyed any kind of entertainment meant to literally frighten. I guess I'm looking for... Well, entertainment.

I'm a loner that prefers puzzles.
:D

Very interesting test.

Well for someone who usually prefers playing by myself I've just had a great time working on the "getting out of the room game" with misslilo and others.
Maybe I should re-do the test after this new experience. :D

Cool quiz! Interesting results. ;)

So the main part seems bang on the money (and unsurprisingly similar to various others AG members' results), but the exception part is so far off the mark - the exact opposite of reality.

I generally marked down any multiplayer/social aspects of gaming in the questions, and this has been interpreted as me having "no mercy for the weak" and a disregard for others' feelings.

Which is curious to the point of amusing, because what I dislike most about multi-player games (on the rare occasions I play them) is that I don't want to be repeatedly in situations where others' feelings are hurt, so I avoid this by not playing these games.

I'm the guy who surreptitiously slows down when playing Mario Kart DS, or ditches certain pickups without using them, if I see my opponent getting too far behind. Or I fake messing up a button combo in Virtua Fighter to lose a few points, so that I've got to battle my way back from behind. (And don't care if I lose, if it all goes wrong.)

So... generally interesting, but there seems to be a definite flaw in the methodology somewhere along the line.

Mind you, the three games I picked in that quiz were two adventure games and Sonic the Hedgehog so it's pretty accurate.

This was actually my second attempt as I felt i could have ordered the last page a bit better, only difference really was swapping round seeker and mastermind.
Although my socialising dropped down to 0 and I suddenly mecame merciless

We're all a bunch of anti-social Mastermind Seekers! I think I'm closest to you though Trep, only a couple of points difference here and there ;) Very interesting and quite tough to answer if you like a mix of things.

It's interesting that most of the commenters under the Survivor section are disagreeing with the "Favourite games of Survivors surveyed so far include Bioshock, Grand Theft Auto, Metal Gear Solid, Resident Evil, and Silent Hill." Like me, they all preferred games such as Thief, Stalker, Call of Cthulu, Eternal Darkness rather than some of the 'heavy handed' examples above. Maybe only a certain type of Survivor that plays Thief, Stalker et al comments on Brainhex while the others are busy just filling the form out and leaving!

Seeing as how almost everyone has had a low to negative survival score I think I'm gonna stick with you during the next zombie outbreak.
