Test of your gaming passion

Most of the time I honestly have to motivate myself to play games, even if I enjoy them immensely. Of course, early on I'm all "omg this game is awesome" and play it every chance I get, but soon enough I just lose interest in playing it that much. I still enjoy it immensely when playing it, it's just that getting past that first hurdle of actually starting the game up that I usually do not really succeed at.

I was never really all that fond of long gaming marathons. I always feel like I should stop after so-and-so hours/minutes of gameplay, and oftentimes do so. Even if I have nothing else to do. I just cannot bring myself to play the same game for 8 hours or something like that. With RPGs maybe I'll play for quite a while if the story interests me, but for most games I just can't.

Hell, early on during my quest to beat Shadow of the Colossus I used to play only long enough to get from the Temple to the colossus and defeat it. (strictly) One colossus per sitting for me. Later on I started doing 2/3 in one sitting but yeah... was never all that fond of sitting down for long hours playing the same game.

Unless it's something like Winning Eleven/Pro Evo, but even then that's only if I'm playing with other people... which would mean that I'm not playing the game for the whole time. I can do a combination of playing+watching for a while, but just playing? Nah.

Unless you're talking about Championship Manager/Football Manager.
