Default Pissed off at gaming!

This is really pissing me off. I can't find the damn time to play all these games. I am going back and forth between Resident Evil 4 and the Japanese GT4 but I have Zelda: The minish cap and Mercenaries sitting on my desk at home as well. That doesn't include the games that I haven't finished yet like Metal Gear, Halflife 2 and Prince of Persia 2 (which I won't until I finish the above first.) What the hell is wrong with this industry? I should take 2 weeks off and just finish them all then go back to Counterstrike, Halo2 and Toca online.. haha.. Anyone else feel my pain?

I used to play video games all day, but now, between work and school, I no longer have any time for them. Only games I really play anymore are multiplayer games, usually at house parties with copious amounts of booze.

I'll be a nice guy and help you out... send me your JDM GT4 and JDM PS2/modded PS2 and I'll play it for you. I'll even pay for shipping!

I actually own a Japanese PS2 as well as a US one..

Yes, I am a freak.. I got the first run Japanese PS2 when it came out in Japan. I was one of those idiots waiting in line the day of release since I was there on business. Too bad my current position doesn't allow for me to travel anywhere other than E3 or else I would have a PSP as well..

I keep starring at the JDM PS2 and JDM GT4 online and as I'm about to waste $400, I hear this little voice in my head... "must save for our wedding, must save for our wedding, must save for our wedding".

BTW, how do you convert the 240V Power Cord for usage in the US? Some sort of adapter or converter box or simply switch out the power cord for an US PS2 one?

I totally feel your pain!
I am working on Halo 2, GTA 3, Metal Gear Solid 3, and Mario Sunshine... I am almost done with Halo 2 and GTA 3. I need to finish Metal Gear before the US version of GT4 is released. Minish Cap is a great game, I finished it about a month ago or so.
Nintendo also anounced the realease of the new ZELDA game comming to game cube late march.

I beat MGS3, and am in the middle of GTA:SA -- but right now all my gaming attention is being devoted to the new Zelda. I plan on getting RE4 soon, but I'm afraid I wont be able to beat it in time for GT4.
