Do you spend more time researching/reading/discussing about video games (forums, news, how-to's), or do you spend more time actually playing video games?

Reading for sure. But then it's my job to stay on top of news and write about it so that goes without saying.

I play more than I read, definitely. But I still try to stay on top of the latest news regarding new releases and such.

Read

As you get older no time for games, lose interest, burn out.

Ah want to rewind time and play a bunch of PS2 games for 13hrs straight or you know actually enjoy COD: MW again. Could only play MW3 for 5 days, MW2 28 days. Far-cry from MW1 where I clocked in 150+ days.

Lately I've been reading and lurking here more than actually playing games. That'll change once I finish this semester though

Reading and dicussion, because when I'm at work(like right now) I have about 20-45minutes of downtime between jobs! Gaming is one of my favorite topics of discussion, but some of my other favorite subjects are, Marital Arts, football, technology, non-fiction books and few others.

It's all about playing, so far I've been through everything I've wanted to play, so I'm waiting for Dragon Age - it's gonna be great.

I read and talk more, My life consists of me sitting in a shop which I own waiting for customers and roaming around these forums and gaming websites for the latest news, I then go home have tea, look after my 2 girls, put them into bed and then sit and watch the telly with the mrs, I work 5 days a week, work with a local football team for under 12s, games on sunday which takes up half the day, so only really get a day and a half with the family, so trying to find time to actually game is hard, I do bring my PS4 to work with me, but find myself thinking I'm sort of missing out on the true experience of the game due to having to work imbetween playing and end up turning it off and just reading so on the rare occasions I can play my game at home on a screen worthy of it and headphones which just do wonders for the game, one day that will change once i build my Gaming Room in the loft, just need the money for a really decent curved 4K screen and a couple of gaming chairs and a decent surround sound system. it's the dream lol

Probably reading, but that's because when I play I like to play in large chunks and I often don't have that kind of time. But with reading I stop whenever I want.
