Tip of the week: Avoiding burnout – I have seen the trend a lot lately with games to play a single game non stop for weeks at a time. At the end of those weeks the player can’t stand playing the game for at least a few months. If you find a game that you really enjoy, don’t force yourself to play it everyday. Don’t tell yourself you have to beat the game or reach a certain level before you stop playing. Play it when you feel the desire to and put it  down when you feel like you have to play. Perhaps you are playing an online game that requires daily maintenance. If this is the case, find fellow gamers to either keep the gameplay fresh or distribute that maintenance. Don’t make your favorite game your job.
