It's retarded, because I focused just on RE5. Then Guitar Hero Metallica fell off the back of a truck, and i tried to split my time between the two for the past few days. That led to me being up on my computer designing my website. I still don't know if I want to play either right now, but if I think about just one I really want to play it. I just can't commit.

im playing Rome total war's mod called diadochi total war. a wc3 custom map called dota and hitman but i dont play that much anymore. do you know why?

im addicted to this drug. its called crystal maths. what you do is find a terribly difficult maths question and solve it. after solving that question you just smoke off the personal satisfaction of it. its goood.

Choose the game you can beat the fastest, and go from there.

@Flea: Sounds like you are enjoying yourself quite nicely.

Don't worry guys, I am 45 and still playing;)
Exactly.

Dis-liking video games has nothing to do with age (though, when you're older, you may be too busy to play them as often).

Maybe you just need better games, or something different that fits more appropriatly with your current interests?

I have had that problem many times. But I tend to make do with what resources I have available. That way, you don't go throwing money around into something you don't need.

As Roach says it has nothing to do with age. Playing with others, making teams playing vs teams is what keeps me playing. I'd say the addiction is like watching/playing soccer matches, it's the same thing it's just not healthy like actual sports. I don't want to get back to single player anymore. That's boring and a waste of time. I've been always playing nothing but Blizzard games. I got attarcted by some custom crap like making custom maps, modeling. It consumes your entire time, I'll never ever become a modeler or any of that mapmaker that wastes years on a map that no1 plays coz there is Dota, even if I do smth just for 1 map I do and is currently in frozen process. A war3 solo/2v2 game is 20 mins, a SCBW/SC2 may be 30 mins. This is one of the BIG reasons I prefer melee to Dota or any other custom crap, the endless WoW or other single player games... Wouldn't you spend 2 hours of your day? Sure you may be wayy busy but if you get up early do what you have to do for 2 hours you can do a lot of entertaining games. Now do you see why I talk so much about melee? Coz it's the best even in terms of time, awesome games and 2 hrs = at least 3-4 GGs. I've already thought of what is best if I become busy and it matches with what I like the most.

I think you got bored with what you used to do and moved onto something new. That's what happens when we grow up.

This happen/happening to anyone else. I keep getting feelings of like why am I playing this and ect. Anyone else here grow out of them. I dont really want to. I mean this shits like my childhood I was 2 years old when I first picked up the controller. I used to love video games, now its so boring. All of the new games that have come out are really boring yet my brothers are like omfg fallout 3 is like jizzable.The game was boring as fuck. I really dont want this to happen. :damnit:

because he is from a 3rd world country
right. i don't even know where to get 30dollars right now. i will get a job and buy it if you want too bad im not an xbox 360 fan. it will take me 4 to 5 months here with a ordinary job to buy myself a ps3, and my other needs are not yet even included.

so how much your ps2 cost?

im an avid gamer and i dont even have these 3 consoles. this is my main reason, im updated with games but i have not even played or seen most of the games in person. it would be a dream come true for me to get one.

A used X-Box 360 in general would run you ~$100.

And that's assuming you don't do expenses such as food and shit.
