I read more about games then I actually play them , but videogames are my passion!
you still have Cable television? It's been over a decade since I cut that cord. I can't remember the last time I watched anything close to network tv.I tend to play in the evening hours instead of watching the garbage on so-called "prime time tv".
I mean, spending money on it doesn't make it an addiction. If that were the case I'd be addicted to fishing and hunting. I just bought a 400$ reel for saltwater fishing to add to my other 400+$ saltwater reels, doesn't mean im addicted to fishing. They are just hobbies, and hobbies cost money.I asked my Switch, OLED Switch, PS4 Pro, Xbox One X, Series X, PS5, Quest, Quest 2, PSVR, PSVR2, and Steam Deck this morning if I was addicted to gaming. They all said no.
Hell naw, I stream from time to time, but I was talking about the local antennae tv stations and shows that are on cbs, nbc, abc etc. like The Voice, The Bachelor, The Cleaning Lady and other shit shows not fit for watching. That's like three hours per night that some people spend their time watching.you still have Cable television? It's been over a decade since I cut that cord.

Like people on GAF even play games. All they do is jerk themselves silly while discussing the latest DF video or the latest intrigue at the Court of ResetEra.
When it stands in the way of your responsibilities. When it hurts your life, social relationships and affects your physical well-being. I have a childhood friend like this, in his thirties, alone, no job, plays videogames all day long, lives on his grandmother's pension, I visited him once, his apartment is so sad it made me depressed for a week or two.At what point is one addicted anyway? More than 6 hours every day?
Can I ask you then why you are on a gaming forum? If I didn't play games, I don't think I would be here. Are you here for the nostalgia and only talk about games you have played?Hardly,I've not gamed in nearly two years......somebody please make something to get me excited again,lol.
I've gamed all my life,I'll be 50 this year.I only stopped when this gen launched because I couldn't get my hands on a next gen system.In the time since I've become a bit disillusioned with gaming and this gen has left me very underwhelmed.I still enjoy gaming as a media and the discussions around it and would like to play games again but nothing excites me right now.....I hope that changes sometime soon.I'm hoping Starfield will be something that gets me interested again.....fingers crossed.Can I ask you then why you are on a gaming forum?

He’s still young if he was playing Destiny in college. If they said Halo 3 then yeah getting to old for to little sleep lol.Wow 3 hours of sleep is brutal. I sacrifice my sleep too but rarely go below 5 hours. Edit: or do you mean 3 hours of gaming per night?
I was playing Super Metroid at that age, but I feel like I need less sleep now, or maybe my brain has just given up and has gotten used to it. I usually sleep 5-7 hours. My beard became gray around 30 though and I got old man glasses a couple years laterHe’s still young if he was playing Destiny in college.
