GFF is wut?

Meh, I was an intermittent gamer in 2002 when I registered. I stuck to a few genres and companies, but nothing excessive. I didn't get super excited when the newest Metal Gear or Final Whatever came out. I was never the type to pore over review sites, nor did I pay much attention to the latest news. If it was worthy, I figured I'd hear about it eventually.

These days, if it's not on my DS, I probably won't touch it. I've played Brawl twice, Guitar Hero II, three times. My PS2 has been unplugged since last summer. I don't own a Wii, 360 or PS3. I don't intend to. My television is sitting on the counter, unplugged, in the next room over. I don't have room, nor the desire to get mired down in too many videogames. Honestly, I think I played them too much as a teenager and early adult. They probably distracted me from more important responsibilities and I wonder if I'd have been more successful early in life had I never owned a PSX. (I don't think Magic Cards helped much either.)

So no, I'm hardly a gamer at all. I like my Pokemon and it's the only game whose long-term goals I pursue. I can play it in fifteen minute breaks at work, or while I'm trying to fall asleep at night. I can play it in waiting rooms or as a passenger during car trips. It's fantastic for hospital stays. But if I take a break from it for a few weeks, I'm not bothered.

At this point in my life, there are many things far more important than videogaming.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
