Since this 7th generation is the last one where I´m purchasing systems and games, I´d have to say none.

But I´ll still be damn curious to see how things play out next generation.

 

Why are you leaving gaming?

 

Hey man, well it´s due to me not really enjoying games so much nowadays.

I started gaming in 1988, with the NES, and my enjoyment with games hit its peak during the 4th (SNES/GENESIS) and 5th (PS1/N64/SATURN) generations.

When the 6th generation (PS2/GC/XBOX) started, the fun I have while gaming also started slowly going down, and has picked up speed.

I mean, in this current generation, I still find fun, but it´s diminished a lot, not even the Wii´s motion sensing/IR pointer capabilities have been able to inject new fuel as far as I´m concerned...and the way it´s going, I think over the next 3/4 years my fun with games will come close to zero.

With that said, I still plan to keep a close eye on how the industry moves forward, who gets in and who gets out, etc...
