    I gave up tv years ago for similar reasons and never looked back. Who needs tv? I am a journalist, for god's sake, and even I never miss an issue or story on behalf of my tv aversion. But in the ever expanding gaming universe I feel there is enough fun to be had for a lifetime.

    I share your disappointment over the terrible quality of after sales, fixes and fan-base comitment of today's great distributors. As for the rest of your complaints, sorry, I think you just suffer from overload. Go cold turkey for a year, then switch on one of your all-time favourites.

    Oh, and don't expect the highest intellectual satisfaction from a buncha pixels, please.

    I get this feeling sometimes then switch back to PnP RGPs...

    Then when I have had enough of other people and switch back to some good SP gaming...

    Then branch back to MP...

    It is a cyclic thing really...

    One thing doesn't change though, I am a gamer at heart, the gaming does not go away. It is just the medium changes to keep things fresh...

    I don't whatch TV very much becuase the lack of interactivity loses my interest. I only like TV or films with a particularly good story, I don't watch it just to pass time...

    So is it gaming you want to give up (focusing your life on more "serious" and "real" persuits) or is it just PC/Console gaming you are feed up with?

    Simple and honest question, if this is the case why stay on a PC game forum?
