Depends. Sometimes just being out in the world. I've been playing Cities: Skylines (new city builder) a lot recently, so seeing different road builds and building layouts makes me want to play.
Gaming is more of a reward to myself after having a productive week, because the weekend is the only time I can play, if I can't hook up with my girlfriend.
Just a gamer and like to game. If i've got nothing better to do like spend the weekend with a female, or go rock climbing/skydiving, etc, then I'm probably gonna be gaming. I prefer it to watching tv.
Sometimes I just feel like gaming. To set the mood is to feel like challenge to defeat a level or a Boss from the last time I played. Or remembering the satisfaction of setting a high score. I have been playing since the coin op arcade days. When quarter up was an active term. Sometimes I just what to finish a game and I and in the Zone to finally complete the game. Waiting 2 days is a great way to get in the mood to play videogames once again.
When I want to get into a gaming mood I get a nice scented bubble bath while listen to soft music and drinking a glass of wine then I am ready to game.
When I don't play for awhile, after about a week of committed abstinence, I get these little urges. I don't really have time to play anymore, but I get into these fantasy strategy games like takeover, kingdom rush, and hearthstone and just play and scheme until I fall asleep.
