My father was gaming back before people called them "video games" and he didn't stop until about 2001. He played and owned more games than many people on this board. There is such a thingn as a lapsed gamer, or a gamer who just ceases to enjoy the hobby. Coming back and playing the games isn't some quality that's inherent to you, it's about whether or not games appeal to you. Without appealing games, no one would play.

I'm not quite sure wtf you just said... but i will make it simple.

Gamer's don't just give up, they come back... if your dad is a true gamer he will come back to games.. it may take him a few years but he will come back.  If he does not then he was never a true gamer.

 

Either way... True gamer's never die

There's no such thing as a "true gamer". Just gamers who ontinue to have games that they want to play. If you didn't have any games you wanted to play then you wouldn't game, and if you think differently then you're lyingn to yourself.

He's been off the wagon for ten years. The Wii didnt' change it. The 360, the DS, the Cube, the PS2, the Xbox - all didn't change it. If he comes back it will be in th far-flung future. Sure as shit won't be soon.
