Very good points and I can relate to what the article is about. It is one of the main reasons that I rent games that I want to try but may also be cautious about paying full price for. Some games always look incredible in demos and videos but turn out to be a chore, when playing through the retail game. : )

I'm in a dry spell right now, only mine consists of putting a game in and immediately wanting a new game, then when I get a new game, after about 5 mins I want another new game.

I've had many of these over the years, but as Quagmire says (that's weird) with the amount of quality games that are getting released these days, there is always something coming along I want to play.

My main problem with this new trend of constant new games is I find myself never going back for a second play through on previous games. I'll lose the enthusiasm to want to go back as I'm always looking for that next game.

I'm in a dry spell. I've played maybe an hour of videogames all week, I usually play about 25 hours a day. It really is a weird thing though, it has nothing to do with the games. I'm still probably only half way through Demon's souls and think it's one of the best games I've ever played, for some reason I just don't want to play it or anything else right now.

I don't find myself having to do anything to get my enthusiasm back though. I usually just get a rekindled interest in something else (music this time) and wear that out for a few weeks until the desire to get back into gaming comes back. Since no games I want to play are released for another month at least it should work out perfectly that I'm wanting to play again just as these cool looking games come out.
