The last I remember being really excited with gaming was when Starsiege Tribes came out back when dial up, which I still have, was still relevant. I remember upgrading from on board Intel graphics to a Voodoo 3 2000 and what a difference. That game consumed every free minute I had and assisted in my lack of social skills.

Maybe if I could actually get high speed and play online again my interest in gaming would come back. As of right now I am a lazy gamer; I just meander from game to game not ever really getting involved in it but rather using it to kill time.

I try to look for old games to play hoping a spark will hit in fact I just purchased Deus Ex (never finished because it crashed at a certain point) and Freelancer. I plan to pick up the Fallout bundle over the summer.

Your vote doesn't really count, as you're the industry's lowest common denominator: excited about everything, even if it is Peter Molyneux's hernia.

EDIT: The golden age of gaming were the 90s. Everything now is retreading of old concepts.

very true

I'm happy with a lot of the games coming out; Orange Box, STALKER, CoD4, GTA4, Mass Effect, BioShock... and lots coming up, like Far Cry 2, Mirror's Edge, Left 4 Dead, STALKER: Clear Sky etc. But I still feel like something is missing in this era. I remember playing Deus Ex and System Shock 2 and having 6 hours just disappear (and it actually took longer than that to finish the game, major plus) . Those games were amazing, there's nothing else like them anymore. BioShock was way too action oriented to be a successor to System Shock, and we all know about Invisible War. STALKER was closest, but a lot more flawed than DX or SS2 ever were. So yeah, the late 90's were kind of a golden age in my view. Some high quality games without the insane commercialism we have now. And for god's sake, there needs to be a Freespace 3, that story needs to have an ending!

If nothing else works, ad hominem.

If nothing else works, I suggest you get that brain back from the pawn shop. It was a stab at Asuka's rampant fanboyism, but not entirely serious. After all, Peter Molyneux's hernia isn't going to appear in any of his games...

... at least I hope so.
