I wouldn't call myself a gamer. What I've found, is I like getting lost in Call of Duty: Black Ops. When I play that game, I think about nothing but that game. It's one of the few times my mind gets a rest and I've come to enjoy playing that game. Sitting in a treestand is a similar feeling, but it's more spiritual. My mind is still at work, but it's the work I love doing. When I game, my mind does nothing! LOL! I typically play one or two, 15 minute games a day. If I play for long periods of time, it's late at night on the weekend. Hence the reason I rarely sleep those days!!!
I bought a second XBox 360 (got the Kincet TOO cause those sports games are badass!!!) just for Black Ops. I had one when Rock Band was hot, then sold it. I've never played video games; I like to watch others, but I just never got bit by the bug. But Black Ops is addicting! And once I found it to be a release, I was hooked!!!
