Never not be playing video games?

Instruction ended today and next week is the last days of class, so it's final's time duders. Even so I just can't stop playing games. Well, I guess I can, but I choose not to. Maybe? I hope I haven't developed a problem here. That being said, it's not like I'm putting my work aside. On the contrary, I'm quite busy.


The solution?

I have Forza Motorsport 3 racing itself on my TV. I beat the season mode up to Year 8 myself, but now to get the achievement for a gold medal in all the events I'm just hiring drivers to race for me. A period where I shouldn't be investing time into games seems like the perfect opportunity to do just that. Part of me feels a bit dirty, and I know I have at least one friend who doesn't approve of the AI doing the work for me, but then again it has its perks. For one, it's like having an advanced screen saver running at all times. I also appreciate being able to actually look at the detail on the car models, something I never pay much attention to when I actually play racing games because so much of my focus is on the road. On the other hand I'm just waiting for Xbox #4 to die on me.
 
 Surely my consoles will forgive me on their death bed. Please tell me I'm not alone in doing these kinds of horrible things.

@dudy80: those endurance races are what really make them impossible. Over an hour on a race? I just don't have that kind of patience after all the other hours I've spent racing non-stop.

i finally beat that game in january i think. i didn't hire any drivers, i thought it was fun to play them. one reason it took so long is because i didn't know that you could go into the race list after you got the achievement for like racing on year 9 or something along that. endurance races are pretty crazy. they are like an hour and like 1 pit stop to get gas.

i can't wait until i get far in gran turismo 5 to do like 5 hour races. i hear those are even crazier.
