I always end up getting bored of all my games because I end up over playing them and beating them too many times.. Just looking for some personal input here. I need to find one that will keep me entertained and busy for a really long time. Dont get me wrong video games are really cool I just hate how fast they get "old" to me. Also they would be fun again if I had someone to play them with.. But then I run into some difficulties lol.. :/

I'd suggest XBOX 360 (in case you don't have it already).

A lot of great games, unlockables increase the depth of each game, and then there is LIVE, which will make you play games until you break the pad. :wink:

First game to buy: VIVA PINATA ! !!

Yeah I know what you mean, back when I played runescape it completely consumed my life, I could easily play 48 hours straight, only rarely getting up to eat or go to the bathroom, get a little bit of sleep and play for another 48 hours.. In the end it wasnt even worth it, just one big waste of time now that I look at it lol.
Also Im too poor for an xbox360 but maybe some day I will be able to afford it :)
Here are the systems I have. Super Nintendo, N64 and PS2. Also I have my windows laptop but it sucks and cant play any of the new games, just to let you know. :wink: Any suggestions?

Whenever I find a game with a mission editor, I know I have something to fill my days for at least a year, but that's just me. You may not be as crazy about that type of thing as I am.

Try Shadow of the Colossus for PS2, God of War 1 and 2, Baldur's Gate 1 and 2, Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly, and Mario Party 3 and 4 for N64. Hope the list helps. Shadow of Colossus is the most incredible game I have had the honor to play in a while, matched only in beauty by God of War 2.

multiplayer games for PC usually keep me interested for quite a while. It all gets boring sooner or later though.

Gothic II: Night of the Raven never gets boring. I've played for nearly 50 hours and is still not finished. And when I am finished, I can play the game again as a mercenary or magician instead of a palladin. :)

the game for me that never gets boring would have to be Starcraft, After 9 years, the multiplayer realm is still very much alive and kicking!

Or the system fails.

I would recommend that you get Command and Conquer- The First Decade, and play online in CNC Generals Zero Hour.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl (when it comes out) has a level editor and has loads of options and a great single player mode. It also has online multiplayer.

However, it's on the Wii. The game doesn't have motion control and although the Wii is the cheapest out of the PS3, Xbox 360, and Wii, it all depends on any other games you want for it. As long as your not fussed about the graphics (although they are very good for the console) you should be OK. People are probably going to disagree with me about getting a Wii though.

Blitzkrieg/Burning Horizon/Rolling Thunder

Cheap as chips these days but the best RTS ever [no resource production/gathering just combat and logistics].
I say this mainly because of the large amount of free mods and campaigns/chapters/maps available from the player community at

bkportal.co.uk
[google that to check address]
I recomend material from mrFrost72 and Manhunter but there is also GordonCZ's awesome and challenging Achtung Panzer campaign and the Road to Victory/olmsteads mod combo makes the original campaigns just brilliant.

peace j
