No time for gaming, wahhh

[Homless Snark]

Anybody ever feel like they don't have enough time to play their games? hehe.

I'm just ending my sophmore year in college and the time spent gaming is cutting back.

It's annoying too because i'm "playing" so many games that i'll probably never finish 'em at all. Here's my list.

Master of Orion II
Homeworld 2
Doom 3
Guild Wars
Prince of Persia: Sands of Time
Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind
Half-life 2 (2nd time through)
Madden
The Movies
Deus Ex 2: Invisible War
Thief 3: Deadly Shadows
Battlefield 2
Hitman 2: Silent Assassin
Area 51



What are your guys lists and do you have the same problem? If so how do you deal hehe, do you sacrafice other things, like sleep? There was a period where I forced myself to stop gaming as much (would only play CS:S for maybe an hour every other day or so) and then recently I completely threw that aside after about 6-7 months, and have "gotten back" into gaming thanks to the inspiration of Resident Evil 4 (which is one of the few I can say i've beaten). I usually end up not having the time for the games, but then when one comes out that I want I have to get it, so I grab it, and next thing I know I stop playing one of my other games and in it I didn't get very far, so i've really only completed a handfull of games in my entire gaming career (sans cheats).

In fact the only games i've ever finished (singleplayer obviously) were HL/HL2/RE4/Starcraft/FFVII/FFT/RE:0 ... thats pretty much it heh.

Well I have recently managed to expand my social circle to include a good few girls. And I also have cast amounts of coursework. And revision.

I am getting around to the 8th time through of HL2 at the moment though. And I will have to give up one of these commodities when Oblivion arrives on my doorstep.

The LAST thing I ever wanted to do when I was in college was play video games. I don't know that I touched more than one or two games in my entire college career. LOL, they were Mortal Kombat 2 and the original Mario Kart for the SNES. Maybe a few games of Tecmo Baseball for the original Nintendo here and there.

Games come before all ty very much. No time to play games Pshhhh... ALL time is for games.

Oh and i have MANY friends in college still playing LOADS of games. Time management = key. Plus knowing when to work and when to have fun.

I dont believe in not having time for games/friends/fun.

[pomegranate]

Well, I do have spare time for gaming, but I just feel like I'm cheating myself if I don't do something more fulfilling or worthwhile, like trying to get a new job, meeting more people, reading, discovering new music, or cooking... or posting on internet message boards

 

[wilka91]

I'm unemployed. I can play as much as I want, but I don't 'cause I get bored fast ...

 

[Jintor]

I have time, but no games to play : (

Or to put it another way, I lent Psychonauts to a friend, I finished Deus Ex, I don't want to play San Andreas, Half-Life 2 is a memory i'd rather leave unvarnished, Civ 4 takes ages to load, and I like to talk to my friends anyway.

 

[Dalamari]

There is nothing out that I can be bothered to play, so until Oblivion comes out I've had to be social and actually talk to my friends

 

[weskerQ8]

me too
i have a lot alot more than your games
and thats make me feel bad

 

[RandomX]

I've got plenty of games and not much time, but it's fun because in the time that I can't be playing games, I'm still involved with games and surrounded by other gamers. Life is good.

 

[pomegranate]

I don't want to play San Andreas

for the love of God WHY?? It is fantastic!

Lies.
It's okay... just okay.
Extremely overrated imo... GTA:VC was far better...
Hell put every new feature of SA into VC and we're golden.

I have time to play on the weekends but as I have gotten older I have gotten more picky on my entertainment. I just havent seen any "great" games in 2006 yet, and only a few (3 or 4) in 2005. I dont go pick up any game these days, played to many of those games that left me thinking why the hell I wasted so much of my time.

 

[Jintor]

for the love of God WHY?? It is fantastic!

Mainly because i finished it, then played it to death, then got Psychonauts.
