I haven\'t played consoles for a long time... last game i played on ps2 was tekken4 and dc was virtua tennis and SC.

Pc gaming i still do, but not many games really get me anymore. It\'s hard when it\'s all been done before.

Of course I play less than I used to. I am married with children. Ok maybe only one child at the moment but I would rather spend time with her right now than playing videogames all day long. I still get in about 4 to 7 hours a week in but that is mostly on Friday nights and Saturday mornings when the kids still in bed.

Well, like the other ppl here I maybe play a bit less. But that\'s more becuz of external factors like \'free time\' and \'money\' than
videogames themselves. But my passion for games and how they
are made has only increased. Heck I study 3D animation now becuz of videogames. Of course the study takes alot of time away. But I\'m still as much, now at age 24 ( almost 25

), into videogames as when I was a small kid.

I usually only find time to play on weekends when the wifey is still sleeping (I\'m an early riser...) or when she\'s running errands...

I played Drakan: The ancients\' gates for about 4 hours total this past weekend... & 2 games of NHL2001 with my brother.

I play around 2 hours a day. Last night I played SOCOM for about 4 hours. I dont think that I could ever grow out of video games. They just need to come up with some different styles. I think that is the only reason people "grow out" of them. Thats why Online gaming is so addictive. Think about the first time you played a game. I cant remember the FIRST game that I had, but I remember the first game that I owned. Super Mario Bros. I was like 6 or 7 years old. My Dad baught the NES for me. It was supposed to be a birthday gift, but he couldnt wait to give it to me, so he woke me up at 11:00 pm and we played for hours.... WOW. Havent thought of that for a long time. Anyway. I have been playing for ever, and will continue to play forever!

High prices on videogames are damaging the industry itself. In Europe the prices suck (please, don\'t speak about quality).

Christmas usually marks the time of year that i dont play video games. But from August to December i play the shit out of my PS2. I\'ll play Madden or NCAA College Football for at least 9 hours a day some weekends.

But besides those 2 games, i dont have anything else to play until a good basketball game comes out.
