I haven't burned out on gaming, but I do buy LESS games than ever, and I work in a gaming store.
My reasoning? It's not because I'm any less of a gamer than I ever was. Hell, gaming keeps me going. But it's just the fact that there haven't been that many great titles released recently.
I want to love the PS3, but it's been a disappointment so far (I'm optimistic about it though.
The Wii is nothing more than a fat tech demo, but I bought one solely because of DBZ BT and Trauma Center, both of which are getting sequels, so I'm willing to ride it out and see what happens.
To be honest, if not for the horrendous hardware, the 360 would be the best console I have ever owned. Period. The library is good and only getting better, and if MS actually fixes these Ring of Death problems, you might seriously have an unstoppable juggernaut on your hands.
But yeah...I'm not even remotely close to stop loving video games. It's just that lately, the selection of appealing titles has been rather thin.
