I suffer from burnout on playing games off and on. Sometimes its just good to take a break. Other times, perhaps you need to find a different type of game to play? Perhaps play a game from a genre you're not really fond of, or try playing a game that was never released in your region.
Play something co op/splitscreen with a friend. Whether it's something simple like Mario World or a Call of Duty game, sharing in the excitement of another player who's physically there can help.
Maybe replay some games you enjoyed a lot too. I've been slogging through Dragon Age: Origins and replaying something got me out of my funk and back to DA:O.Quote:

Play Daze before Christmas and/or get the Funcom logo tattooed on your wang.
I'd say pick any of the above, should work like a charm.
I get it too, find other hobbies like music and movies or start a youtube channel.
I find that if you need to go away for a month, you have an opportunity to find who will be the first to reach out to you.
so many of our relationships are distant, yet we have our families in the reach of our fingertips, so its okay to slowly lose our ambitions as long as we do it silently.
I'd try picking up lighter, easier games to start with. Instead of launching into a game that either has no win condition or can take forever to win, just go for something more enjoyable. Chip's Challenge, Commander Keen, Jill of the Jungle, games like that.
Get a relationship for a month or two. After that you will be completely disillusioned with people and ready to go back to games.
