I think most of us are guilty of buying cheap games on sale and taking a while to get to or never getting around to playing/finishing a game. I think this is especially true when Steam has its dirt-cheap game sales.  My backlog current stands at 3 games (Borderlands 2, Portal, and Portal). How about you guys?

umm, yea it's really large. I doubt I will ever get to some of them. Especially considering I'm a regular Rift player as well which means that is less time devoted to other games. I usually play a few hours of a game and if I don't find it exceptional I usually toss it aside and try another one. I may or may not come back to it.

It's pretty huge atm with the Steam sale.  I just got a bunch of games now to last me for the next couple months at least.

About 50-60 games.  I would normally say it's because I don't have time, but it's really because I'm not all that interested in starting up a whole game and playing it front to end right now.  Other things occupy my attention far more readily.

I'm currently at 90+ - and that's just for the PC. I've got about half a dozen for the PS3 as well. If you care to see my backlog list of games you can check my blog (http://www.gamespot.com/users/neatfeatguy/show_blog_entry.php?topic_id=m-100-26006542).

I already know I'm crazy. Probably 15% of the games listed I don't like or can't get them to work since I last tried.....and yes, a couple of games on my list are of poor taste. I only picked them up because they were cheap (couple of bucks or less).

I try to update the list as much as possible or as I see fit. I recently added 4 or 5 games due to Steam Summer Sale - F U Steam!

So my struggle continues.....sadly, it continues and never ends.....never ends :-(

I have over 70 games that I have to complete, not counting games on PS3 and Xbox 360 I have sitting there, asking to be beaten.

On the up side, I have (almost) every modern game I'd ever want, and just about ever PC game I'd ever want except for a few of the Splinter Cell, Starcraft and Serious Sam games.

Oh, I don't like to think about it. I think in maybe 20 years I'll have cleared the current backlog, but of course by then 20 years worth of new games will have built up. :P Major offenders are all of Assassin's Creed, The Witcher 1 + 2 and Dragon Age: Origins.

About 125 PC games, 5 Wii games, probably 50 iOS games, the list goes on. Am I proud of it? No, but that's what having a 1 1/2 and 3 year does to your gaming time.

I have maybe 5 or 6 games on my steam list I haven't played, I might actually play 1 or 2 of them. A lot of games with like .5-1 hours though.

Roughly 15 games.  Some have been on the backlog for a long time and some I got during this sale and I do intend to play them over the next few months.

SPAZ

Anachronox

FTL (Beat it once, but I still don't feel like I'm done)

Red Orchestra 2

KOTOR 2

 

Games I own but haven't played:

Crysis 2

Crysis 3

Assasin's Creed: Brotherhood

Dishonored

The Walking Dead

Europa Universalis 3

Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon

To the Moon

Dark Souls

Natural Selection 2

The Bard's Tale

Probably like 50, but there's a bunch of games there I will never play. I got them in bundles I bought for other games. Just counting the games I want to play, there's around 20 games I have yet to beat. Most of them I have at least installed and played a few minutes of but just haven't focused on them yet.

I don't think I know... I don't think I would like to count either. Just recently I bought 5 games off of the steam sales and have bought 10 games or so this year and will end up buying close to another 10 or maybe 15 more till the year is done and only 5-10 of those I will actually finish and this has been a slow year for me in terms of games purchases.

My actual Steam baclog isn't really that big. It's just that most multiplats I already played on PS3/360 I bought again because they were so cheap and I figured I'd want to replay them eventually. Now I have dozens of games with little to no play time at all.

It's pretty huge, I deicided to finish AAA games first and just barely finished Witcher 2 since the game came out, currently have about 70ish games in my Steam backlog, and totally gave up on my PS3 backlog as I probly will never get to play them.

Just PC games? Let's see, I need to finish.. Battlefield 3 Medal of Honor GTA IV TES: Skyrim Metro 2033 Mass Effect 2 GRID Bioshock Bioshock Infinite Far Cry 3 Far Cry 3 Blood Dragon Rage Tomb Raider Dead Space 2 Deus Ex: Human Revolution I'm sure that I missed a couple. And I also have about 50 XBox 360 games that I need to finish, but I doubt that I'll ever get to most of them...

At least 100 games. And this isn't even counting the games that I want to play again. 

I'll finish it all... eventually.
