I can't justify playing games any more. I am too serious.

Who the ******** needs justifictation.
If you need justification in everything you do then you're taking yourself too seriously.
People tend to dislike that in others.
Or so I've heard.

I picked up Metroid Prime Trilogy last Friday. I've been hardcoring on it since. <3

*total Metroid nerd*

Super Metroid makes that game cry to sleep at night

I dunno.

I'm pretty serious when I have to be and everyone likes me (for some reason). I'm not even being narcissistic. It's just the truth. Life would be a whole lot easier if I was more of my inner loser. It's kind of starting to manifest itself, but just because I haven't chosen to change anything yet.

Oh yeah, but video games. I do them. Really just Madden and CoD2 with some gaming friends that I've acquired throughout the many years of e-competition.

I just figure I could be making art instead of doing something where the sense of achievement is so short-lived. I just see some of my friends wasting their lives. They get in from a day of work and start playing games. Seems like a horrible, boring laugh.

It's all three games updated for Wii controls on one disc. There are some small nitpicks, like a few weapon effects (AKA the smoking barrel in Prime) being removed for the Wii version, and all three games' intro menus being removed in favor of one overall Wii menu, but it's a pretty solid piece of software all in all. I love it.

Eh.
For me it's less of an achievement thing.
It's more of an escape for me.
I play RPG's, and a lot of them to boot.
I've been a hardcore FF fan since I started breathing,
and have always been into the idea of living another life as someone else.
I'm just waiting for something realistic. Where the mistake you make is more than "I knew I should have used Curaga instead of Cura".
I seriously enjoyed both the Fable games even though 2's ending seemed Lack-luster in the wake of the ending of number 1.
I hated seeing my dog die. sad
It like, hurt my soul.

Maybe you should take a long, hard look at what you're escaping from. Escapism is certainly a good thing, but not on the scale required to complete something like Fable, FF or any of the more recent RPGs. Maybe, as you get older, you just become more comfortable with who you are.

From the age of sixteen, I used to play with my band for six hour stretches, sometimes more. These days I lock myself away and create for as long as I can go without food. That's true (constructive) escapism. Also, I feel I can look back and not feel I wasted my free time. Something that seems to get very tight when you really hit adulthood. I'm not trying to tell you how to live, because I make these judgements from the safety of retrospect. I'd just like to think I gave someone else an understanding of what they could be doing instead of sitting in front of a TV.

I'm a Forgotten Realms, D&D Gamer, to be honest. It's always fun to use your imagination, and the video games like Neverwinter Nights and Baulders Gate, are Seriously fun.

Life is about choices, right? So, why would you choose games over something else? I don't really see anyone answering me to my satisfaction.

People have the tendency not to realize how stupid their choices are until after the fact. That's what makes choosing such a crap shoot.

@Hect: Every time you talk it's like you're just pissing excellence at the page, man.

@Quarry: You have a point. If I could do that s**t with the creating (minus the food thing. I require food a lot) I would, but I have this school thing to interrupt it. I'm considering taking a form of personal day and finding somewhere where noone will care what I'm thinking at school during as much of the day as possible, and just thinking.

"Just thinking" days never get you anywhere.

Trust me, I took a whole just thinking year. Admittedly, it helped sort my mind out from the disproportional amount of emotional baggage and crazy that school left behind, but other than that, useless.
