Oh sorry, should introduce myself -- I've played most of the major MMOs. Started out with Ragnarok Online, graduated up to FFXI, played WoW when it first launched, etc. I gave up WoW after my guild demanded too much of my time; this was back in 2005. My last favorite multiplayer game was Hellgate London; loved the story, too bad the game died. I've also played The Sims series. These days, I'm trying to find games that I can play and will still allow me to nurse or take care of my little one.

w00t! We went out after The Hubster (tm) came home from work today and got two new games -- Fallout 3 for him and Little Big Planet for me. YAY!! I've been waiting for LBP forever and it is just as cute as I've been hoping it would be.

Ok I love The Sims. Best Buy is having a sale on Sims 2 for all game consoles. $19.99 . I got The Sims 2 Castaways for DS for $10.00. I had a gift certificate for $10.00. Now I can't put it down, lol

Oh, my goodness, yes, I play games. Warcraft ftw! As a matter of fact, I just got out of some wicked Alterac Valley BGs.

My goodness... I have to apologize to you all. Life officially got in the way the last couple of days. Between work, school and family life, I can't remember when I had a minute to sit down and see how every one was doing. Things have been so busy that I only remember Gamer Moms having 23 member, and when I logged in today, we have 38! I'm so glad that you all have found a place to hang out. You just don't know how much this tickles me. Thanks for coming...

Always have fun,
-Lesley

Games Ahoy: Bejeweled is so fun!! Even my boys like to play that one, I like that it's complicated for adults but kids can figure it out and play it, too!

I am obsessed with playing EcoBuddies online with my six-year old son. It is so cute. My sister in law told me about it, one of her friends actually created it and I believe it just launched. Anyhow, its free right now so you can look at it at www.ecobuddies.com.
Other than that, I also love the originals like Mario Cart, Mario Bros... anything Mario (lol), Zelda, Ratchet and Clank, and have been known to spend hours playing Bejeweled.

I am a big Sims fan, I own all of the Sims1 and Sims 2 except for apartment living, I haven't gotten that one yet. And I can't wait for Sims 3 to come out. But I only play on my PC

JediMom, thanks for the ideas for a proper group logo. I think I can take what you posted and adapt it to our needs ;^).

Pixie,
For the group icon, I thought maybe a game controller would work. We all seem to have a variety of consoles. I checked Flickr for Creative Commons licensed work and found these:

(But we'd need to work in the attribution somewhere with a link.)

Or maybe we could take this concept and swap children for moms:
