Possibly the geekiest reply yet.
Well, being somewhat of an under achiver and stuck in a dead end job, most of the big events in my life are experienced through a joypad.

A particular timesink of mine is little big planet. For those of you who haven't heard of it, it's a platforming game (think super mario) where you can build your own levels and stick them online for outhers to play. I always have grand visions of great levels that will give me Internet fame and win the respect of my peers. Unfortunatly, the game has outher ideas. The level design interface is difficult and very limiting. As a result, problems
must be worked around, which requires time and a little clever use of the parts available.

Currently I have 3 levels in various stages of work, each one a fairly unique premise, with no small amount of my time and effort lovingly spent perfecting. I'd guess 24 hours of my life have been spent on them, and yet I'm unlikly to ever add the last little touches that deem my efforts worthy of posting.

Of course, this post could also be used as evidence that I never finished my "sort your fucking life out" project either:/

Now and again I'll shove the disc in.
Some of the community levels are something to behold. Get them finished!

Hmm
I used to spend quite a bit of time on that and am now wasting just as much time on Modnation Racers create a track.

Did you know that some of the users that created the best community levels have been hired to work on the sequel.

It's not just me then!
I had great plans for various contraptions, then saw the online levels and rapidly lost the urge, knowing I'd never be able to dedicate the time or have the skill to match them.

Then my (then) 9 year-old son aced all the levels that come with it which rather put me in my place even further.

I can still beat him at arm-wrestling though, which is what counts :-)
