It was mostly used in online gaming but has started to spread out into other areas. It's kindda short of saying "that Player got OWNED" hence "powned".

i believe its not exactly powned, but more pwned without the O, but otherwise the description is correct.

True
But when the boneheads actually try to say such a funny word on xbox live, it comes out pronounced "powned" :LOL:

Yeah I agree and sometimes when my friends IM me they will spell it as either "pwned" or "powned" I think it can be either way.

My son say's the word came from the orginal game Doom. It was supposed to be owned. But, it got misspelled and showed up as pwoned.

I play World of Warcraft, and there are SO many gamer phrases, including Pwned of course. Its considered by many in the game as "Pro Talk".

ZOMG.....GTFO NOOB!

Rofl! "You have no chance to survive, make you time...Ha ha ha." Funny game, with so many instances of poor grammar, and SOOO many techno remixes sampling it, lol. As for OWNED spellings, I'm suprised nobody has mentioned pwnt, the shortest/sweetest of them all...

Haha as a gamer myself I say this a lot. Most of it is known as gamertalk.

And then there is 1337 (Leet, basically 'Elite') Speak, I hate leet speak though. 1 $0 1337. (I so leet).

Also about pwned, It's not pronounced Pown-ed its PO-ned, and usually spelled PWND.

My littler gamer rant, now I have to go to my cave of solitude and Pwn some nubs in CSS, cuz i r teh 1337 >_<.

That would be a great game. COUNTERSTRIKE vs. Day of defeat.... I'd pwn all day long with my awp whore self or run around deaglin headshots all night long then do the bunny hop all over day of defeat's candy arse...... :Twisted:

Pwnt, pwn3d, pwned and all the other variants are just words that you scream over your microphone after you kick somebody's ***** while playing online first person shooters (FPS). Some major examples include DoD (Day of Defeat), CSS (Counter Strike Source), COD4 (Call of Duty 4), TF2 (Team Fortress 2), and L4D (Left 4 Dead), and Halo 3.

CSS, DoD, and TF2 are fun, but my current favorite would have to be Left 4 Dead. Although I haven't gotten to play it much recently, being a Hunter is just plain sick :Twisted:
