Being a gamer is expensive. First there’s purchasing a console which will run you hundreds of dollars. Then you have to buy accessories and games. Theres another couple hundred, if not more. So how does one afford this hobby? Well unless you’re a rich little brat whose mommy and daddy buys you everything, you have a job.
If I could have it my way I would never leave my 360. I would only leave to eat and get more games. Oh and to take a shit when necessary. But other than that I would be glued to my Xbox 24/7, or something like it. But I can’t because I have a job. And here in lies the irony. I work to get new games, and of course to pay bills and what not, but most importantly to get games. But the hours I spend at my job are taking away from precious time killing nubcakes in Call of Duty or running over hookers in GTA4. And it pisses me off!
I work to buy games, but I can’t play the games as much as id like cause im working. Now some of you might not agree with me. You might not be as obsessed with games or you might not have a job. But if you go through what I do then you know how I feel. It freaking sucks. Anyway that’s all I wanted to say. But I know that when Gears 2 come out I will probably quit my job so I can play that for a few weeks... lol. Peace

... try having a job, working overtime, having a kid and having a fiance. I dont know how Ive put 16 hours into GTA4 in the past week.
My only advice to you is to make the time to play and stop complaining... XD

It's a paradox, alright. lol:)
I understand you so well....
getting up @ 8Am... going to work until 7PM, getting home @ 8PM, eat and then... play!!!!
the bad... after 1h and half of playing... i tend to get tired and fall a sleep...
oh well... VACATIONS.... i really need some of those :|
games only for enjoyment but if you like them so much then get in to game dev it will only satisfy your soul I know there are tons of harsh times you have to face in it but no pain no gain.

That my friend is what is known as a catch-22, a common crux to the average working-class gamer.
