I used to play games every chance I got, but now, I havn't played a game in over few months and haven't finished one even longer. It seems games REALLY have to do something unique to keep my attention, I just seems to get bored with them very quickly. Oblivion was the last game I played hardcore.

Im not sick of them I just don't excited over them as I use to when I was young now I just play them when I can, I remember planning out my day around the release of a game and spending all day playing it now I struggle to play the same game for an hour before turning the console or PC off.

I don't play them nearly as much as I once did. I have a 360 and a PSP and I play my PSP more which I've had for a shorter time. I seem to go through patches where lots of stuff just bore me and I find it hard to keep myself busy. I have loads and loads of DVD's but have seen them all dozens of times each. I want a PS2 as I want to relive all the classic games on that. I used to have a PS2 with over 70 games, now I have 3 games for my 360 and 9 for my PSP. I think to that overall, games just aren't as fun as they used to be.

This is how it is for me. My standards and taste in videogames has changed quite a bit. I generally won't buy single player games anymore and I generally won't even waste my time playing a game that doesn't at least average at least an 8.5+ review.

You've got to me joking me, you're basically saying that you let other people tell you what to play and what not to play.

Not really. I don't have the time nor do I want to spend the funds on games that the mass of reviewers don't like. Games are way too expensive now to be wasting money on ones that may or may not suck. Like I said, my standards are much higher now.

Well, some people dont have the time for trial and error. So might as well go with something that has a higher chance of being good. I can totally understand if thats the case.

If I do by a game, I usually wait a year and then buy it on ebay, unless its a game I want to play online then I buy it straight away on ebay, I don't buy new games from retail stores anymore.

Reviews are opinion, nothing more. You're probably missing out on games you'd actually enjoy because you're allowing other people tell you what THEY didn't like.

Then you agree with me, you agree that you could be missing out on something you'd really enjoy because they reviewed it less than 8.5.

Yes I do know that. That's why I said I don't want to gamble on games anymore. As in it may be good, but it probably won't with low reviews. I stick with the games that have the best chance of being enjoyable for my time and money.

No. But I am sick of being almost literally the last one to buy a new gen console.

And I dont mean that I feel left out but mane great games are very difficult to be found if years go by.

Are you supposed to play every game in every genre that you enjoy? I don't understand how you're supposed to choose what games to buy when there are piles and piles of titles released on a monthly basis.

Sure, that's why it's your favourite genre. Obviously you're not going to enjoy every game but how will you know without even trying it?
