Anyone else getting distracted from games by other games and not playing them?

I have too many games that I haven't been able to play because another game would come along and rob me of my attention. For start I have yet to finish: Lair, Grand Theft Auto 4, Folklore, Super Mario Galaxy, RE: Umbrella Chronicles, Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, God of War 2, Onimusha, Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy IV, Final Fantasy IX, Final Fantasy X, Final Fantasy X-2... and I'm sure there's plenty more I haven't listed but yeah, I get distracted easily.

Right now I got distracted from Final Fantasy IX by Parasite Eve, but I'm almost done with it and I'll start going back to finish the games I started.

to fully expirience those games you have to finnish them one at the time.alot of the continuity of the story is ruined when you stop playing a story based game for a long time.

Out of the 15 you've listed, I've beaten 6 of them already.

I have over 240+ games and I haven't even beaten half of them, which is just a waste.

When this happens its usually because the games you were playing just werent that great or exciting. _AbBaNdOn

This may not be necessarily true. For me, no matter how good a game is, I can't play it for long without wanting to switch to something different. I can only play a game for one or two hours at a time. Maybe its some sort of A.D.D! :)

Having owned them since the most recent Christmas, I only recently opened up and played Metroid Prime 3: Corruption and Super Paper Mario. Even when I had no games to play during that seven month delay, I would simply return to old favorites (i.e. Gears of War and Dead Rising).

Admittedly, I rushed through the games so that I could return to the Xbox 360. The Wii Remote only remains dry for so long in my plump hands.

I was like this for a long time it started about mid-way through the PS2s life cycle. I just could not stop buying the next big game, and I would push the others to the side. A couple years ago I made a commitment to play and complete each game I purchased before buying another one. Or if I decided I didn't want to complete it (didn't enjoy it) I would then move on. It has really helped. Not only do I save money, but I get more out of the games I buy.

It required alot of willpower, but once you start experiencing the benefits it becomes easy.
