I don't game as much as I did 10 years ago but every once in a while I catch the gaming bug.
I was hooked on World of Warcraft for a while but eventually got bored once I had a couple of alts up to level 60..
Recently, I've been going old-school for my gaming. I found a copy of Magic the Gathering for the PC (plus all of the addins/updates) and spent a couple of months playing that in my spare time. I remember playing Magic with my buddies back with it was the hip thing to do. (in fact, I think I probably still have hundreds (thousands?) or cards sitting in some binders somewhere...maybe I should see how much they are worth). So, that was a lot of fun for a while--even though I spent 4 hours getting it to work on XP properly.
Now, I am playing one of my favorite games of all time - FFVII. I recently discovered that I still have all of my PS1 games in a storage box when I had to dig through them looking for something. So, I downloaded a great emulater (epsxe) and burned all of those PS1 discs to ISOs. I don't remember when FFVII was made but the graphics are still impressive. I remember being absolutely blown away by some of the full-motion-video sequences in that game. I also remember spending a few hundred hours trying to hunt down every freakin' side-quest in the game. :) I doubt I'll bother with any of that this time around but I'm enjoying it so far. It must be a sign that I am getting old but I think most of the new games are crap. How many FPS games can you play? Or maybe all of the easy, innovative ideas are already taken. Mostly, I think it is because--like music and movies--it is big business now. And corporations like to take the safe route because it is easy money. As for me, I'll be happy killing spare time with FFVII...
