Sounds like my dream job, assuming you have absolutely no end-users that you need to speak to Cheesy

Yes I still play games
To be honest I think I will still be playing games when I am an old dodger living in a care home riddled with arthritis but still managing to use enough anti-inflammatory tablets to enable me to hold a joypad or mouse.

I play mainly now on my Ps3 though My 360 is still sat by the TV for the odd bash on Forza 4 or WWE (insert number here) or GTA IV

the PS3 does everything so very well that it is on the most, in fact its amazing it hasn't yet given up the ghost. MW3,Skyrim and Oblivion are probably my main poison at the moment.

As for Retro - I think I own pretty much everything I could ever want now and I am in fact thinking 'shock horror' of putting some stuff away in boxes as it hasn't been on for a while. I really need to remove one of the Amigas from the bathroom too as it has been in there for a few months now - I have 3 or 4 Amigas now (just in case) - hell I have two BBC masters just in case and an acorn electron for backup lol
If it was popular in the UK I 'probably' have it by now with the exception of a few rarities and the ones that I didn't love that much - e.g. the 8 bit ataris (800 etc) - apart from the VCS of course Wink
The commodre 64 and speccy tapes are taking up far too much room as are Amiga disks so I need a damn good tidy and put away.
Most of my computers etc lie dormant now though most of the time as I can emulate almost everything now pretty well.

I sometimes think will I ever stop being a big kid and to be honest the answer is no , never - Ill still be playing Dizzy,SWIV,Lotus,Sonic,Mario,Monkey Island,Defender,Citadel and others when I am old and grey.
and when they eventually lay me down to rest I will be buried with a C64 and my tombstone will read - Another Visitor - stay a while, stay forever !

I don't play video games anymore. I mostly chase 20 yr old girls, hate my profession as System administrator, behave myself improperly for my age and try to catch up what I missed 15 yrs earlier - because of the same stupid video games. Smiley

[EDIT]
I also realize this is my first post on this place in several years.

AH Lindo, I remember your nerdiness from the 'old' days!  It's good to hear that you've still got the passion, although a little worrying you haven't yet grown up...  But then it's good to hear you're hoarding things positively.  Give it 50 years and your collection will be worth loads!

Ever since World of Warcraft came out back in 04, I havent been able to get into any games. As much as I loved Diablo 2, Ive hardly played D3... it was okay. I buy all sorts of Xbox games, and never play them... Dante's Inferno looks so good, yet I never play it.

I mostly just stick to simple iOS games, asynchronous games are quite fun. I tried to get back in to the Heroes of Might and Magic, and Transport Tycoon remakes, but no luck

Still playing, and quite a bit too. Usually PC games, they're dirt cheap nowadays, thanks to online distribution. I'm mostly doing strategy games such as Paradox' Europa Universalis games, RPGs and a variety of indies.
I'll probably never stop playing, but when I quit being a bum I'll have to cut down I suppose.
