However, I spend a lot of time on the internet reading the latest video game news, and talking about them online. So while I wouldn't say that my times are wildly disproportionate, I do think that I spend more time reading about them than I do play them.
Man, I didn't even realize that until now. I spend an enourmous amount of time on the internet looking up things FOR gaming (ie, LCD TVs/sound systems/PS3 - Xbox 360 Wii news) and replaying various next gen movies rather than working on the pile of RPGS I still have yet to finish.

Sometimes I even start reading reviews of games I've beaten, I'm not sure why, but somehow it's quite strange that I can sometimes find reading about games more "stimulating" than playing the actual games. But not always, just to let you know.

Indeed, I can't even play Clocktower for SNES (LOL WIMP) but reading the walkthrough is almost like a suspense/horror novel.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
