Help! I'm losing interest in video games!
« on: August 02, 2007, 07:19:47 AM »
I've noticed that lately, I've become less and less interested in playing my considerable collection of games.  My Xbox has sat untouched for weeks now, and I hardly play my PS2 at all lately.  What have I been doing with my spare time, then?
Reading......Harry Potter.....
No, I have not been sucked into the Cult of Potter or anything.  I still think the f irst couplemovies were better than the books they were based on, and I will forever hold to that opinion.  I actually thought the first book kinda sucked.  But still I feel stragely compelled to keep reading.
What has come over me?

You're growing up. Sucks, huh?

I recomend the Foundation Trilogy by Asimov if you're looking for more.

The game's quality is going downhill really, older games (not NES) had great stories but these days it's just the same things repeating over and over again.

Books are great as well, they give you the story that most games of today lack.
Read alot, maybe Harry Potter isn't the greatest(just my oppinion) but I know that there are plenty of fantasy books and the like out there.

Use your knowledge and write a book of your own till the day that some new good games is released. That's how I'm thinking, satisfying my mind enough.

I've had less and less of an interest in video games. I rarely come across a console game I get into nowadays, I play mostly handheld, but even there, my interest is fading. And I agree with you, Harry Potter compelled me to keep reading. I just finished it last night. Now I have school reading to do and a huge French assignment. That combined with work gives me practically no time to do anything else.

Shoot yourself in the foot, QUICKLY!

I have yet to lose interest in games, just my expectations have raised up a bit over the years.

Losing interest in games is like if I lost interest in drawing. Can't afford it and I gotta improve my style.
