Subject: I've given up on gaming.

“I didn't want to wake up. I was having a much better time asleep. And that's really sad. It was almost like a reverse nightmare, like when you wake up from a nightmare you're so relieved. I woke up into a nightmare.”

I hate to admit it, but games aren't as great as they were like around 2000-2007. Ever since 2008, games have been getting worst. I'm just not interested in them anymore... I personally haven't played my 360 since 2011, and I'm playing mostly indie games now for like 1 hour a week... Are games getting worst or am I just getting old/growing out games.

A cornered fox is more dangerous than a jackal.

And from FOX, two phantoms were born.

You are growing out of them.

It's probably a combination of the two which is causing your problem.

I haven't turned on my xbox in months. I don't have as much time now as I did a few years ago, and I haven't found a game that I've like as much as Halo 2 and Halo 3.

心の中に弱い風が吹いています。

Both. Quality is going down as developers rush to get their games out the door in order to rake in the cash. I also find myself finding games to be less entertaining as I get older as well, so I say both.

If we disagree, it's nothing personal, opinions are opinions.
Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

Brighten your day with science.

I'll bring the tritium laser cutters if you bring the beer!

Funny story.

What kind of games do you play? I could recommend you some stuff.

From the ashes

Sounds like you are growing out of them, games aren't really getting any worse..Well, most games aren't.

Some people grow out of them, I sort of am too. The game I've been playing most is Dark Souls, and when I'm done with that, my hours playing will plummet to zero. Preoccupations take root as you get older, that is for sure.

You look around.You fire your weapon before you realize.
Its just me. I fall and you walk up. You cry why.
When i pop up. You look at me in wonder. I say,"ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL."
You bend to my will and go to a cliff, walk off, and fall.
The last thing you hear is me stating as fact,"All will fail the battle of life, you just went early"

The games are definitely not getting worse. The only thing anyone can legitimately claim is that they are staying the same, but there is no possible way you can say that video games are actually getting worse.

You are probably just moving on. Just like any other type of hobby that you get bored of.

I barely buy games and they have become so boring for me. Which sucks since I've always loved games.

Play with friends.

I have a group of 5 friends who I play Halo 4 Custom Games pretty often with, and it's always a blast.

I feel the same way whenever I play games alone. Frankly my friends are the only thing that makes it fun for me anymore.

There are still plenty of fantastic games that you haven't played. Even if you're not interested in the latest releases, you're perfectly able to go back and check out games you missed.

Or you mite b growing out of them. Who knows.

Games are business rather than what they should be, art. Just like cars, most features that were on one car that people liked then others are going to implement them, i.e. power windows that aren't needed but all cars have them. Also, I see that 2000-2007 were the golden years of Halo. I believe games ought to be given more artistic freedom because 343i or Microsoft's puppet is trying to put CoD in their game to sell it better but this ain't the automobile industry and making similar games just would reduce the consumer's incentive to buy different games since if all games are the same then what's the point?
