I'm the opposite. I find that now that I'm focusing more on less consoles I'm actually playing way more games.

hell to the yes. i do more collecting than actual playing. another thing i seem to do is not play or collect as much for current gen systems(even though i have one) until they are replaced with next gen consoles. and it has nothing to do with the drop in price of the games.

I feel like I'm always scrambling to get past-gen games, otherwise they're going to become GONE FOR GOOD! :o

I also feel the same way. I wanted to collect evry n64 title out there and now after playing it on my day off I feel like I won't be playing all this stuff at all. I almost want to get rid of it now since I own the wii and play the sequels to most of the games I loved on the 64 during the 90's era.

The wife has her own games, so pretty much when we're both home and not eating, she'll be on the PC and I'll be on consoles, or if she wants to watch TV I can play some PC games. I probably put about 10-15 hours a week in to gaming. Living the life :D

I can't even guess how many times this question has been posed on this forum. :lol:

(Yes this link has been used so many times.)
My scheduling skills have died of dysentery; I hope to visit at least on a monthly basis.
Still, don't forget to tip your waitress.

Boner, you seem to rub me the right way since you always know what I'm feeling.

But yes, I definitely spend way too much time researching, reading, deal hunting, and buying games than actually playing them.
