Re: Soapbox: Be Happy, This Is The True Golden Age Of Gaming

All of this is true but for some reason, I'm more bored with games than ever. I've been a gamer my entire life but now I'm 35, have a wife and 3 kids, 2 jobs, and a writing career on the side. You'd think those precious few hours at the end of each day I would run to my consoles and dive in...but I just can't anymore. Can anyone tell me why?
I look at all the AMAZING games I have and thinking about them makes me want to replay them but when it comes down to it, I pop one in and just look around for five minutes then turn it off. I've been trying to figure it out. Someone help!

I'm old enough that I no longer have the luxury to play every game to completion like I used to as a kid in the PS1 era and I've been ok with it for a long time. Between 3 jobs and a family of 5, I have to make sure EVERY minute of gaming is valuable and enjoyable. Ill drop any game like its hot if it fails to impress me quickly. Haha
