Default 23 Signs You're A Grown-Up Gamer

23 Signs You're A Grown-Up Gamer - IGN Originals - IGN Video


I don't think they really went through 23 signs but does anyone have anything else to add to what they already stated.

I agreed so much about not completing games. I buy them but I have no idea when is the last time I actually completed a game. I think it might have been last summer with Tomb Raider but to go six whole months without completing one.

I disagree with the not picking up pre-orders on Day 1 though. If I am hyped enough for a game to pre-order it. Damn skippy I will be picking it up on Day 1. Playing it on the other hand is a different story.

Such a child.

You could add that into the 23 because they didn't really cover 23 reasons.

Also working for a developer doesn't mean that you have to game as your hobby when you are off the clock.

idk if I would be able to do that. Game all day for work and then come home trying to relax and start up a completely different game. It would feel strange to me.

Haha, I do it all the time. The games we develop are for facebook and mobile, so I'm happy to come home and turn on the PS3 and play real games.
