Games are boring.
PDO three weeks ago, stopped a 70%.
Wario World nine days ago, done about half the levels but haven't played it for about four-five days.
Hitman 2 three days ago, I'm on about the fourth level I think, don't ever really feel like playing it.
Now PDO has faults, it's bland, repetitive and boring. But Wario World is rather good, and everyone seems to love Hitman 2.
I've had the house to myself for 10 days now; but have played less than anytime in the last six years. I've used the Q about ten times, and I haven't even bothered to take the Xbox out of my room and into the main room, which I have claimed as my room since everyone left.
And too be honest, if I hadnt got two new Cube games I probably wouldn't have used my Q either.
All I really have played is Warcraft III + Frozen Throne; but I never really feel like playing that anymore either.
So what can I look forward to, to bring the excitement back into games? The remaining seven chapters of Shenmue? The second Matrix cash in? More movie tie-ins? 'Only good for when you're drunk/brain dead' games like your stupid eyetoy and dance mats?
Anyone want to buy a Gamecube/Q/Xbox and a load of games?
Or has your imaginary sister gone shopping for imaginary clothes?

No way
And Xbox Live.
Those and Rogue Leader are all I'm prepared to swap really.
Might replace BO or QR with buffy though...
