Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

[biggiejerseys]

Nailed it.

Basically if I see a game at the $15 or less mark I'll buy it. The games on the left are the games I've played/solved and the games on the right are the games I might have started but definitely haven't finished, and many of them haven't even been open/tested.

Moved games in here trying to organize them and the 360 games will fill up the entire shelf now, which at 44 to 48 games per shelf puts the 360 games at roughly 500. And this gentlemen... this is why I can't drink.

And I thought I had a lot of games.

It's gonna be hard to finish all my games before the PS4 comes out due to being gone so much.

Yes it is. I have 12 I want to finish plus new games coming out I want to play as well.

Re: Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

I think I can do it. I'm waiting until, at the earliest, March to buy the PS4. Probably even April. I have Mass Effect 1, 2, and 3. Injustice, Lego Batman 2, Skyrim, Just Cause 2, Sleeping Dogs, The Last of Us, Lego Marvel, and maybe but doubtfully the next COD. And maybe a few others I'm forgetting. But if I knock out 1 a month I think I can feel good about going into the next gen clean, so to speak.

Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

My list of games I would like to complete before new systems come out - Games with P beside them I have played but didn't complete.

Uncharted 2'
Uncharted 3
Batman: Arkham Asylum (p)
Batman: Arkham City
Heavy Rain (p)
inFamous
inFamous 2
Red Dead Redemption (p)
Grand Theft Auto IV (p)
LA Noire
Tomb Raider (p)
Bio Shock Infite (p)
Sleeping Dogs (p)
May Payne 3 (p)

Plus I have these games I am going to buy for sure this year -

Last of Us
Grand Theft Auto V
Beyond II Souls
Watch Dogs (probably wait for PS4 version)
Madden
NCAA
Battlefield 4
COD

There are more I probably missed out on and some of the games on my list are more important than others. My gaming ADD has caused me to miss out on a lot of great games. I have started finishing more. My rule now is don't start or buy another game until the one I have is finished.

I need more time!!!!

Re: Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

I've shelved all of my games, aside from:

MLB 13 The Show (PS3/Vita)
NBA 2K13, 2K12, 2K11 (360)
Hotel Dusk: Room 215 (DSi)

That's all I have time for.

Like a fool, I went out and bought 4 games today. Dead Space, Fallout 3, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed, and Mortal Kombat. I haven't even beaten the Judgment campaign yet, hardly played it.

Steam....you're not helping by selling Dark Souls for $7.50.

Oh my. Is Fall Out 3 the GotY edition? Even if not, it's the one that's going to suck the most time out of your schedule unless you play a lot of online competition in Mortal Kombat.

First Dead Space was awesome! Play at night with lights off.

Re: Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

I just got Tomb Raider and Bioshock Infinite as part of a new video card purchase (in large part due to the fact that Dark Souls was chugging heavily on my PC, even with the DSfix mod).

The goal of this thread....I think I'm doing it wrong.

Re: Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

Two and half games down -

I finished Tomb Raider and Heavy Rain and I am guessing I am close to being halfway done with Bioshock Infinite - Amazing game BTW.

I am picking up Arkham Asylum ( I lost my save and I think I was almost done) , Arkham City, Uncharted 2 and 3 today from Best Buy and I own Sleeping Dogs. Those five may be the last ones that are not upcoming releases that I am able to finish on my list.

State of Decay is released on Wednesday.
The Last of Us next week.
NCAA Football in July
Madden in August
GTA V in September

Yeah, there may not be much time to go back and play some of the others on my list. It looks like I have missed out on some gems. I may just keep my PS3 instead of selling later on to pick up some older games and or to have a blu ray in my bedroom.

Re: Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

I haven't played Tomb Raider since the end of March. I'm probably just going to start over when I finally get back to it. Such a good game; I have no idea why I don't play it.

Right now The Show and NBA 2K take up most of my gaming time with Injustice getting what's left over.

Re: Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

With all these games I never finished or even played on the PS3/360 it won't be hard to wait a few years before picking up the PS4.

Re: Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

I've simply stopped buying console games. Next console game will be next gen.
PC is dominating my gaming right now.

Re: Guilt, gaming and the "too many games" syndrome

I always switch between BF3 on PC and Myteam on xbox constantly. But I've been in a myteam mood recently. Shame they didn't put myteam into the PC version or I would of got it
