Like many I spent countless hours with my mates through my late teens and almost all of my 20's playing console games together.
With the chat around RDR2 I thought maybe playing games again after not touching any for 6 years would be a better way to relax in the evening than wine and films or documentaries, and had an Xbox One X in an online shopping cart good to go.
I dug out some of my old favourite Xbox 360 games last night and played Forza 4, COD Black Ops, Skyrim, Halo 3 and the original RDR.
Today I have downloaded a few highly regarded games on to my PC at work and spent an hour playing.
The conclusion I have reached though is I just can't be arsed, and couldn't help feeling that it was a complete waste of time.
More importantly I suppose is that sitting on my own playing a game was never that fun, it was always about having a few mates round.
Damn it, looks like it will be a bottle of wine and a film tonight then.

Remember, it's easier to criticise than create!
The weekends were mostly spent at clubs on the 'E plan diet' though...........
Maybe ear plugs for the wife and children is the answer.

Don't really have much time to play anymore but if I do have a bit of time once in a while it's and enjoyable way to relax.
