Just might be done

*sigh*
(Insert drama)

I've gotten to the point where Video Games aren't fun for me anymore. I thought that would never happen. But i find lately that this "Hobby" is becoming less and less meaningful. I considered myself a HARDCORE gamer. I hardly bought games, but I'm there on Tuesday morning at my local video rental store, for the weeks newest releases of games. My all time favorite video game series Final Fantasy released it's 13Th chapter...and I'm kind of disappointing. I'm 12 hours in and all it is, is linear paths to the next cut scene with monster and a hard boss at the end of each chapter. Doesn't really motivate you to go on.

I rented a game that just came out called Metro 2033. They get the creepy mood just right, but the game play ain't as polished as other FPS like MW2 or BFBC2. I guess what I'm trying to say is I'm kind of done with video games, maybe for a while. Might still play Multiplayer games with friends. I'm going to not rent games every week anymore, I will trade in FFXIII tomorrow since G-stop has a 50% trade in bonus, with my discount card on top of that I'm looking at getting almost $50 bucks for it, their sale ends tomorrow. So with that credit I'll use it to a future game that's coming out.

I'm going to go 1 week without playing my Xbox 360...let's see how that goes. I will be able to focus on other things like..LIFE.

Video games have been kind of my downfall. I was heavily addicted to Word of Warcraft for years. So when my son was born I promised his mother that I would quit playing the game when he came home. That never happened, I continued to play, and pretty much left my kid's mom to take care of him on her own. I finally quit sometime late 2008, it was the best thing I ever did. I made it a rule to this day, that when I had my kid for the weekend that I would not touch a video game, unless he is asleep.

I want to start getting back into church, I've started reading the bible again. While I'm not the perfect human being, but I'm trying. I've started writing again, I forgot how great it felt to get my mind going with ideas.
