I bought an xbox about a year and some months ago and I hardly play it, I got games for it and xbox live but I just can't seem to get myself to play. Sometimes I don't play for a month straight even during the holidays.

I even got mw3 the days after release and just haven't put enough hours into it, I think am level 40 max. Dont remember.

I have Halo reach still not completed, red dead redemption still not completed. Dont really have that many games tbh.

maybe am getting to old for it lol am only 19

Sonny back in my day we didn't have no fancy dancy save feature, we had to beat them games in one sitting and that's the ways we liked it. But no seriously though, it happens I get bored with most of my games from time to time.

You just need better games. I've bought all the CODs from 4 to Black Ops because all my friends did, feel disgusted now, and won't even touch MW3. Reach was OK, but it's no revolution like Halo 1 or 2.

I'm 18, and was in the same boat as you until Skyrim came out.

Start with Fallout 3 or Skyrim if you havn't already. Skyrim and Assassin's Creed: Revalations got me back into gaming. Since then, I've started Mass Effect 2, Bioshock, and swtor with a friend.

You need to dig up some of the classics, like the original Fallout's, Commander Keen, Duke Nukem 1 and 2, cripes I could go on forever. Those games still kick ass.

Yes. I really don't play more than an hour a week if I play at all. Probably because I am just not a gamer.

I go through phases. Sometimes I play every day, then other times it's once a week. I invest more time into gaming when a title I'm looking forward to is released. It really comes down to if I have enough time and what else is going on.

This is me as well. I tend to grow tired of one entertainment medium. Then, switch to either reading or loads of TV/Movies. It lasts on average 1-2 months per phase.

For me, video games just aren't as engrossing as they used to be. I remember playing God of War start to finish at least 15 times. But now games can only keep me interested for 1 play through, if that.

Lol. I am 19 too and I don't play games anywhere near as much as I used too. It's all about girls these days. Or getting them to play games with you is always pretty sick too.
