: Even after nearly 30 years of gaming, I'm still not yet burned out. I still
: enjoy my hobby and I look forward to what the future holds. I'm getting a
: Wii U because Nintendo has never disappointed before with any of their
: systems (the Virtual Boy notwithstanding). I'm interested in getting a PS4
: because Sony has always had a decent selection of exclusives and what they
: showed at the announcement last month was pretty impressive. Watch Dogs
: (not an exclusive, I know) seems like an interesting new take on the
: open-world sandbox genre, a genre which I generally don't have any
: interest in (I liked the first Crackdown, but could never get into GTA).
: I'm also looking forward to Destiny. Yeah, there's plenty of stuff the
: industry does that's worth complaining about, but there's still a lot of
: good games to be had.

: If I may ask, why exactly do you feel burnt out as a gamer?

I think I've just gotten tired of the same old thing. I also really have no desire to buy yet another console. Having had so many x boxes fail over the years, I don't want to beta test another damn x box again. My wife and I have been through a very rough last two years and I think it's taken a heavy toll on me personally and gaming just doesn't feel fun anymore.....frankly not much feels fun these days.
