I used to get really excited for games. I remember finding a game I like and reading everything I can on it before buying, mostly cause my parents would only get me two games a year. (Birthday and Christmass.)
Now, if I find a game I like, I just go to the store and buy it. You could say that the magic left.
Although I'm really looking forward to disciples 3, Mostly cause it's only released in Russia for now and there's no current release date for the Americas.
