    Default I have lost interest in playing games :(

    I don't know why, but for the past TWO WEEKS, I have not touched my PS2, Xbox nor GameCube controller (even PC's mouse of WCIII, and Splinter Cell)...I have about 40 games spread across all platforms, and not a single one interest me...

    I need a vacation...
    Best Regards,

    Sorry to hear that. Maybe you should take this time to expand your horizons and find some other things you enjoy doing. Maybe eventually you will get back into video games, but there is no point in doing something you aren't enjoying... well, unless you are getting paid for it.

    if you give up gaming, can i have your computer? judging by your sig, it looks pretty badass

    seriously though, take a break, join a sport, learn to play an intrument, joina club, something that'll take up some spare time. your xbox will be there when you get back.

    Same here man, out of all the games I have on the Xbox, GC and PC the only one I've been playing lately is Halo, and that's only when my friends come over. It's been a month or so since I've been on Live... But I'll start playing more (actually starting Wednesday) when Raven Shield comes out for the PC and then next week I'll have my hands on Zelda WW and a GBASP. The Xbox will get more playing time maybe with Tao Feng, but definitely when PSO comes out in April.

    i blame it on EQ......i played that on pc for 2 years and no other game on the pc grabbed my attention.

    i wanna get shenmue2 soo bad but im broke......and yet feel like i wouldnt play it if i got it. like it was just a waste of money.........oh well


    i will get over it!

    2 months and going strong I WILL OVERCOME THIS EQ ADDICTION! im on withdrawl right now.....i twitch.....and then twitch again

    If you got shenmue 2 you would be like a puppy dog lost in heaven. I had both shenmue 1 & 2 on dreamcast there amazing.... Shenmue 2 is $20 at CC i think im gunna buy it again just cuz its been a year since ive played a shenmue game and i think its affecting my overall knwledge capacity

    bottem line: you cant go wrong with shenmue 2... its worth $50 let alone $20

    I've had that problem before. I'll start playing a game or something and eventually lose interest and never even finish it.

    Well... I got the dreamcast when it first came out. Never got Shenmue for it. So when I got my xbox.. and Shenmue II came out. I bought it. Im kind of impatient ... and im not really into games that have tons of cut scenes and lots of reading. I guess it depends on my mood. Anyways throughout most of the game I was mostly wondering when I would be able to get some action. Seemed like I was just following directions back and fourth until it just tired me. And I shut it off... I guess some people are into that though : ).
    When splinter cell came out I played it all the time for like 4 days. then I just stopped.. before even beating the game. I always end up playing a game for a little then losing intrest in it =\

    hey don't worry about it. I haven't touched my xbox for about 4 MONTHS now. Ever since I gave away my NFL 2k3. You gotta wonder why I still post in this forum....

    not too bad actually. Life is sorta more fun without xbox.

    I think I'll start playing it again when I get Capcom snk 2 eo this week.


    Its been fun!

    thats sad to hear. Im sure youll regain interest once we get Halo 2 or Doom, if you dont you need psychiatric help. But pick up something new, learn guitar o to skateboard or somethin idk. Just sumthin to keep you occupied for a while until you find a new game that interests you.
