Do you want to test every release that you find slightly interesting?

Do you spend more time downloading, reading, burning and searching for games than you do playing them?

Do you check for new releases every day or more?

Do you think a game is old after 1 month?

I must admit I'm one of them, and I'm sad about it.
I miss the days of the c64 when I was overenjoyed when my tape actually loaded a game.
I miss the days when I got Doom and didn't need new games for months.
I miss the days when I kept on playing adventure games eaven if I was stuck for days.
I miss the days when i could sit down and enjoy games.

My point is: Less is more! That is so true. If we'll se less releases in the future, we'll gain other qualitys.

i have boxes of cd'd ive hardly looked at ... i think u may have point there

the game "download everything and don't bother installing half of it" is starting to get boring


I looked up "gormless" in the dictionary, it said "without gorm" .... so i looked up "gorm" but it wasn't there ????

i used to leech every pc game that got released...but not anymore. Now i just mount and test it. If it's good it'll last for some weeks, else i just hit the Del button.


I don't just say a 1month+ game is old, i say it about mp3, apps & movies too! Sad. And you're right, with having so much (new) games around i won't try 10x if something inside a game doesn't work Smile

Just Del.

I only download games I think might interest me. Wich means that when I download a game, I intend to play it, and I always install it as soon as I go it.

Sometime I delete it after 1 hours, if it really sucks. Sometimes I try it for a few days, and get bored, so I delete it. And sometimes (PoP:SoT, Far cry, UT2004, pandora tomorow in MP, for the last times) I really enjoy it and play it completly in 2/3 weeks. After that I keep it for a few month, I case I feel like replaying them.

I really wait for Doom3 and HL2 for this summer.

I'm waay beyond the point where I try/download every game released, only the games I absolutely know something about.
And yes the Commodore 64 days where special, I played some games for months.
Absolutely hated this:
Load
Press Play On Tape
Found I'm getting nostalgic
Loading

Exactly. That's what I'm doing. School's out so I have all summer off. I just reinstall games I didn't finish or want to play over again. Right now I'm playing Grim Fandango (never finished it last summer), Jedi Knight (same), Escape From Monkey Island (2nd time through), Max Payne 2 (4th time through), some new ones like Ground Control 2, and a whole bunch of GBA ROMs.

Even though I still download stuff daily, It's mostly movies. If I download a game it would be a xbox title, as I tend to console instead of pc gaming. The next game I'll try on the pc will likely be Doom III or Halflife 2, depending on which comes first.


Hardware: Ryzen 3700x, B450 MSI Gaming Pro carbon AC, GTX1080, 32 GB 3200 Mhz cas 14, 256 EVO SSD, 1 TB EVO SSD and 4 TB HDD.
Console: xbox, wii and xbox 360
