this happened to me. the only games i play now are Melee and occasionally Civilization.



Give up on it for awhile and then look at your game library and decide what sounds fun to play. I recently started playing Mario Golf: World Tour again and having a blast. Didn't realize I didn't complete the challenges and still had a bunch of stuff to unlock.  I don't even need nor should I purchase any new games.  I bought way too many and haven't even played 15-20% of them.  I still have urge to buy new games though.



Maybe try playing with friends. My most enjoyable times are playing with them, especially games like Mario Party and Smash Tour/Run. So much yelling is involved, but we all laugh in the end. x ) Or like Mike said, play your old favorites. I sometimes go thru a megaman X or Sonic 2 run just to recall old good times x )

I need your help here guys.

Gaming isn't as fun as it used to be and no matter what I try to do I just don't enjoy it...Its something that has been slowly building up for the past 2-3 years and I am finally at a point where I do not enjoy gaming at all.

I have all the money necessary to buy consoles and best games that the industry has to offer, but ithe concept of gaming just isn't engaging to me anymore. It's either too tedious, too slow, not fun, too stressful or a combination of things. When I have spare time that I used to dedicate to gaming I usually find myself reading books, watching sports, even doing house work...all before I would consider booting up a game or two.  

Is the party over? Has anyone lost their gaming mojo and somehow eventually got it back? Should I just accept its over and move on?

Have you played games like Journey and Until Dawn? I haven't played the latter but from what I've heard it offers a unique kind of experience. Maybe such games are not your cup of tea. I just think you need to play something different.
