I enjoy how so many people have different thoughts, some give it huge amounts of thought and break it down into emotions and thoughts. Others, like Tom, are simply driven by memories of a magazine that encouraged the hobby. I wonder if these thoughts will change over time and as we age? Obviously past problems led me to want to escape. I wonder if, when life settles down whether I'll feel the need to escape. Or whether there will be a different reason.

Tom talks about how a games magazine got him gaming, Phill talks about how he plays games because he wants to be an astronaut ;) and I explored my gaming history. This goes to show the great variety of reasons people have for why they play games and it shows the fantastic nature of gaming that we can get such varied responsed. I am looking forward to part 2!

Though I don't think it was the reason I loved games. Definitely one of the reasons I got into writing about them, but the reason I was so into that mag between around 1998 and 2002 is because I'd finally found a publication that seemed to share the same inexorable passion for my hobby.
