Default Re: How do you divide your gaming time?

I've divided it as such!:

RPG's: 0%
Everything else: 100%!

It's not that I dislike RPGs, it's just that most of them are boring, pointless pieces of time-wasters. I've worn out many an A and X button just to go through dialogue. The last game that made me quit RPGs was Golden Sun: The Lost Age.

I much prefer Arcade games now. I mostly play Outrun 2, which is sex in 5-minute intervals, Ordyne on the Turbografx which is a sweet shooter, R-type for the Turbo Grafx, Mr. Driller DS, which is a nice puzzle/action game that's also makes for good time wasting, and Zelda, which is about as deep into RPGs as I'll go.

In my line-up I'll have the portable games, the quick arcade game, and the ocassional 20-hour long adventure I'll work on when I have no studying to do (I.E. Metroid Prime 2, Metal Gear Solid 3.) Unfortunately, most of my collection is made up of these 20 hour adventures, and I need to beat a lot.

Now you can probably see why I deleted 40+ hour RPGs from my gaming time.
