Nowhere near as much. I was only thinking about this the other day actually. How up until about 4 years ago (when I was 14 and under), I used to play games so much. Especially my favourite series like Final Fantasy, Resident Evil and Silent Hill. I remember all I would do is think about playing them all day when I was at school, then once I got home I'd have dinner then be playing them from like 5pm till 2-3am. Sometimes I wouldn't even go to sleep till like 5am and and I'd have to be up at 8am to get ready for school. Then on weekends I'd play games pretty much all day. I miss those days. Now I casually play maybe 4-5 hours a week, unless one of the series I was obsessed with as a child releases a new game like RE5 and Silent Hill:Homecoming, in which case I will play them pretty much non stop until I complete them. But other than those, I don't seem to be interested in games nowhere near as much. :(

I'm pretty bored lately, and feel like I need a good RPG to get absorbed into since I have a 2 week half term starting friday. Problem is, is that I can't really find any decent RPG's anymore for 360.

I've already played and completed everything with Oblivion and Fallout 3, and I didn't like Lost Odyssey or Final Fantasy XI.

Anyone got any other suggestions?

I agree. Both RE 4 and 5 are brilliant games in their own rights, but I just can't help feel that the games are almost seperate to the Resident Evil series. I love Resident Evil 4 and 5, the focus on action is amazing and I love the fast paced nature of it, however I miss the puzzles, the slower, creepy zombies, the typewriters, and just the general scariness of the older games. I loved the mansion/labaratory/building settings and felt that these settings made the game all the more eerie, rather than the newer games which don't really have any scare factor at all.

I hope that RE6 will revisit the traditional approach aqgain, but updated too, similar to the RE 1 and Zero on GameCube, if they made the newest game similar to them then I would be extremely happy!

There arn't many games this year which I am truly excited for, except for Bioshock 2, and I would say FFXIII but we won't have that till next year.

So my preorder from GAME came early, so I've been playing it the last hour and love it but want to play it online, and ive joined a few games but the people I play with have no idea at all what they are doing and also just run off and do there own thing/ shoot me/ or steal everything. So it would be good if I could find someone who is willing to play from the beginning for a hour or 2, who is familiar with the RE games and likes to take it serious and have fun. So anyone interested?

Now is one of the best times to buy one. It is the cheapest of the current gen consoles and there are 3 bundles to choose from. I'd definitely recommend buying one, it won't set you back much money as opposed to purchasing a PS3 which is still quite pricey. And don't worry, I'd guess there is still andother 3-4 years left of the 360 before the next gen console from Microsoft is released.
