Talk, read, and think about games more than playing them?

Talk about just about anything else that is non-gaming here, but keep it clean

I usually go back and forth between spending more time here than playing games and vice versa in phases. :lol:

Three kids, two jobs and poor health means I definitely spend more time thinking about gaming than actually doing it.

Yeah... I definitely spend more time looking up games I want to play rather than actually PLAYING them. I also play a lot of remakes of games I liked rather than playing something NEW.

Kick yourself off the internet for a bit and go play some games.

Get a handheld, that helps a lot too.

As for myself, I spend more time cracking the things open, for maintenance, for hacking, for pleasure, for GLORY. This is why I now have spare PS2 parts.

I think I spend more time playing games than reading, thinking or talking about them. Not sure though.

Might be time for me to break out the stop watch and find out.

I used to have that problem but i found out i had been trying to get into genres that im not really into. If i get into a good rpg then i can spend hours without noticing.

I spend too much time collecting and testing roms. I also spend too much time cleaning up and fixing my computer after downloading too many torrents.
