i jsut got my 360 for close to 2 weeks and probably played it about 8 hours all up. but im really finding it hard to play all my games that i got with it cause i've only played 2 of 5 as of so far.

skate has taken up most of my time and then a fair bit of gears of war. but other than that i have dead rising which im dying to play, lego indiana jones, Marvel ulitimate alliance and soon to be viva pinata which im getting real cheap of a friend.

im onyl in high school but its like wen i get home all the time jsut goes from 2 hours of basketball then 2 hours of homework then time to sleep and do it all over again. its like where is all my free time going.

it probably doesnt help that im one of those people who dont really like short gaming sessions (why skate has gotten so much attention) but jsut want lengthy sessions where you can get the story of a game and really get sucked in.

does anyone else have this probelm where they not only have games jsut sittin on the shelves waiting to be played yet to much other stuff going on to get close to a good gaming session?

chill out!

games are meant to be for fun.

if you being entertained enough by one game then just wait until that has lost the entertainment value and then play another game.

its not like they are going to dissapear off your shelf?

i dont get this problem, but then again i dont have many games...

Heh. You young'uns nowadays...

Wait until you get a career job, get married, and have kid(s). Then you'll look back at all the free time you had in college and high school and wonder what you ever did with it.

Now get off my lawn, you crazy kids!!!

I've had that problem for about 17 years now. The end result? Roughly 100 games that never got finished, and a few more that never got played.

It'll get worse after high school. Post-secondary education, work, vehicle maintenance, co-habitating long-term relationships....

When you're 22 and want to have sex the choice between FIFA 08/MGS4 or What Not To Wear/The Hills/Wii becomes a very, very easy one to make, unless you like masturbation.

couldn't be more true. Haven't even played a lot of the games I own and for whatever reason feel the need to keep buying games. Eventually I feel this disease will pass

I hear you. I am teacher, a high school soccer coach, husband, soon to be father, and graduate student. Between work, coaching, grading, studying, and family, I'm lucky to get in a half an hour. Yes, I have games just sitting around waiting to be played. On the up side of things, by the time I do get around to buying/playing a new game, it has been out for some time and I don't have to pay full price anymore.
