isPermaLink="false">http://chris.pirillo.com/2008/03/11/how-to-beat-video-game-addiction/#comment-717558</guid> <description>Hey, I think I have the opposite problem!When I was younger in my early teens I could literally play for hours on end, with my eyes throbbing before I finally went to sleep. Those were the good days...Now im in my early 20s and I have all the games I ever dreamed of on my 360, but seriously no time/motivation to play them. With a full-time job, university, gf, gym etc it seems almost impossible to spend an hour alone with my console, and when I do it makes me feel almost guilty.And when I do turn-on my system, the maximum time I can play is 1-2 hours...I just get bored afterwords. Am I getting tired  or too old for video games or is the shock factor just not &#039;wowing&#039; me anymore to continue playing them?Honestly, I think its great that I don&#039;t play that much anymore, but I really miss it.  I really want to beat all my games- Mass Effect, Fallout 3, BioShock, DeadSpace, Halo Wars, Lost Odyssy, Midnight Club, Halo 3 but have no motivation/ routine. I tend to play too many games at once, without ever finishing one. Anyone advice?</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey, I think I have the opposite problem!</p><p>When I was younger in my early teens I could literally play for hours on end, with my eyes throbbing before I finally went to sleep.

You can&#039;t just blame it to games, there are several media that can be addictive, there&#039;s TV, music and real drugs (which the society hasn&#039;t eliminated successfully). Sad thing the game is played the other way around. It was supposed to entertain you during your free time but it turned out it&#039;s becoming a problem for some. Keep enjoying the game, but live a real life ^^</description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Nice tips.
