I probably spend more time on the forums and reading gaming news.
Here are my reasons:
- I am 36 years old, married, 2 daughters (3 years and 1 year old)
- I drive the girls to the sitter, work, pick the girls up from the sitter 5 days are week.
- After work it is dinner, baths, playtime, and get the girls to bed.
- I'm tired!
After that... I am beat... so for some reason it is easier to sit at the computer over loading a disc in X-Box 360 and sitting on the couch.
I play "real-life" basketball one day a week and cards with the buddies one other night. So, that takes away time to game.
I normally play X-Box Live games because they can be played in quick bursts. I own the following games on X-Box 360
NBA2K7
NHL2K7
Ninja Gaiden
Gears of War
Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter
Burger King - All three (have not loaded them into the X-Box 360)
Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy
Dead Rising
Need For Speed: Most Wanted
Tiger Woods 2007
I have not loaded NHL2K7 yet or even played a full round on Tiger Woods. I play Gears of War for about 20 minutes online. GRAW is only played when a friend comes over and we play people online.
I really enjoy Lego Star Wars II because I can play a level or two when the girls nap or before going to bed on the weekends. Plus I am addicted and want to get 100% in the game.
For me it is a problem playing long story games or games that take too long to get to certain save points or goals. I am just too damn tired and cannot get motivated to play video games.
