I miss staying up all night playing videogames. I try to force myself to do it sometimes and have fun like I did when I was younger...But I just can't anymore. Whenver I finally get the chance to sit down and play I always feel like I could be doing something more productive like walking the dog or washing my armpits. These thoughts gnaw away at me until I break down crying and throw the controller across the room... Where the hell does conviction come from anyway? Would a lobotomy take care of it?

No you just need better games. Try GTA3 or Deus Ex.

Deus Ex is my type of game. I can't wait until the sequel comes out on Xbox.

The times when I could get lost in a videogame were special times. Every now and then my friend, brother and me would stay up playing Goldeneye 'til late.

Video games are evil. they rot the mind and erode the soul. Take up masturbation.

I don't like them as much as I used to. Particularly on the PC (unless it's emulators). I still play the dreamcast a fair bit, but that's mainly either Rez or playing socially with mates.

Why did video game companies stop producing 2D platform games. That was my favorite genre (mario - metroid - kid Icarus ...). 3D is OK but there's still a lot to do with the platform game concept.

I don't know. For some reason developers have it ingrained in their heads that if it's not 3d now, then it's not going to sell. My all-time favorite game on the Playstation was a 2d sidescroller (Castlevania : Symphony of the Night) and as far I know it sold VERY well. In fact, it garnered 'Best Playstation Game Ever' from at least two of the major console magazines. Videogames are just like women : Bitmaped textures and highcount polygons are nice but it's the engaging gameplay that keeps you coming back.

There's a new 2d Castlevania game for the GBA. The 2 d platformer is alive and well (play warioland 4 on the GBA!)-just only on handhelds :)
str_ph: Kid Icarus was wicked. So hard, but really good.

Yeah it took me ages to beat Medusa and I don't know if any of you remember solomon key. I never finished the game - completly impossible for any sane person. I decided to not play this again (with an emulator) because it's to easy to cheat with those emulators ; I would never have the pleasure to finish it in a 'fair' way.

I remember Solomon's key- I had it on the spectrum as well as on emulators subsequently. As to emulators being cheating tools, I know waht you mean, I completed manic miner thanks to the save feature in a speccy emu :)
Neetta: Commander Keen was a bit before I got into PCs but I rember playing it over a mate's house and thinking it was pretty cool. Especially the pogo stick. What was that other similair game they (Apogee/iD) did? Cosmo or something?

Yeah, I bought Harmony of Dissonance the day it came out. I don't know.. It's a solid game but it's no Symphony of the Night. The music is pretty shallow and the animation gets on my nerves...Argh.
