Too many games too little time

Halo 3, Gears of War, Rock Band, Viva Pinata, Mass Effect, N+, Rez and Burnout Paradise. The list of games I've either played or wanted to play all week. It's weeks like this that make me wish I could just say "screw it" take a couple days off work and laze around the house playing games like I was a high school kid again. Of course if my daughter wasn't quite as addicted to Viva Pinata I might have played more of the others. She's still too young for daddy to be fraggin' noobs (halo/gears) or shagging boobs (mass effect) while she's still up and wanting to watch.

On the bright side, being a holiday weekend there will be much Rock Band played around the house while family is over visiting. m/ >.< m/

No point to this post, just musing as a way of putting off work for a few more minutes on a slow Friday afternoon.

I can haz halo party invite?

This is a major problem I'm struggling with myself. I actually have an unopened copy of Painkiller gathering dust as I type. To free up some more time I'm trying to cut down on my new game purchases and put more time to my existing games. As it stands now I don't any chance of getting more free game time until after the New Year.

I know what you mean Dawn, I still have need for speed, burnout revenge(only played once since I bought it), and oblivion havent played again in months, and chromehounds is making my life even more difficult in this regard LOL.

I always try to keep my hole life in perspective. But it is extremely hard when you have limited time available to choose what you want to game. The problem only seems to get worse as other games come on to the market that you really would enjoy.

I know how you feel wolf. I am married, but the kids are out of the house and 2 out of 3 are out of state.You do need to find a balance between gamming and the other things in life. I do work more than 40 hours aweek, I have a yard to take care of during the summer,and house projects. I do squeeze in a date night/or day with the wife. We also spend time watching tv or reading together. I sacrafice my sleep sometimes because of gamming.But, we all know that Novembers is going to be a tough month-then you have to throw in the Thanksgiving. PS. I notice you were not on Chromehounds last night
