It is kind of funny the less free time I have the less I feel like spending it playing. I have ME3 and it is really really good but I have barely touched it.

I have quit gaming almost completely because I just don't find it fun in any sort anymore; however I do play Halo Reach when I do play because that is the only game that I can have fun with AND be able to jump in for a couple of games and then get off. Also when the summer comes I will be playing even less because nature will be calling me! thumb.gif

I'm on the same boat, i'm just not into gaming like i was when i was younger. This past week I had spring break and i went outside more than i played video games. The quality of games has went to **** too since every company tries to cater their games towards a larger audience and games get dumbed downed and they strip the game out to sell portion of the games as DLC. I feel like the gaming market these days is all about money less about the games.

I've already posted, but I feel as if I've discovered more about myself since my previous post.

I've been treating gaming as something I "had" to do since I own so many games or I brainwashed myself into thinking it's my only real option, yet, I couldn't spend more than 10 minutes in any game that wasn't World of Warcraft.

To some extent I am loosing most of my interest, but, I'll never be "done" with gaming as it's a great way to end boredom in down-time.

I've honestly just stopped buying games except for the "must haves".

Once in a while I go on hiatuses. I try to make time for a day or two a week to game, whether it's on my Xbox or the PC. Sometimes, that can't happen due to work schedule or other commitments.

Used to play Xbox with all of my spare time anywhere from 3 to 9 hours a day as an 8th grader. Now I feel like I played too much if I play more than two hours at once, and I play probably less than 5 hours a week total.
