Too many games to play!! Not enuf time

Too many games to play!! Not enuf time

This saddens me so much, does this happen to any of you too?

I am a VERY slow game player, i take my time to savor multiple games in short bursts. For instance it took my 8 months to complete Gears of War, I have not yet finished Stalker SOC and it has been 9 months, I am only 1/3 the way thru for bioshock and had it for 7 months, Crysis was done in 6 months, HOMM5 TOE 9 months 1/2 way thru, etc etc etc

and its NOT like i go through droughts where i dont play games, i plays DAILY....and to add salt to the wounds, there are sooo many games I have yet to play but MUST, and I am a completionist unless i feel the game sucks.

I bet my wife will put that on my tombstone! :P

This is what we like to call a good problem to have, and I have it. My to play list is as follows: HL2, Episode 1, Episode 2, Mass Effect, Dead Space, Finishing Bioshock (don't enjoy it all that much), The Last Remnant, and Far Cry 2. I've been way into mainly console/multiplayer games for a while and I figured it was time to experience some good single player experiences.

if it takes you all those months to complete a game and you play daily, then im sorry but theres something wrong with you.

LOL I can't believe it typically takes you that long to finish games. About how many do you tend to juggle at any one time?

I completely agree though, I have (and want, or will want) many more games than I have time play. I'd like more time to play them, more time to replay them, more time to spend with MP games in addition to my SP gaming passion, and more time to spend in forums talking about them. Oh well, such is life. Good luck man.

There are so many great games on the market at present - my problem is that I tend to move too quickly to the next title.

Empire Total War, and The Sims 3, in particular, have been neglected by me, but I could name others as well. I had been hoping to work my way through some of these titles this summer, but this summer actually hasn't been a dry one. We've had Arma 2, Fuel, Ghostbusters, The Sims 3, and some decent Fallout 3 content in disc form, thrown at us.

Yeah, it's a problem.

I try not to get involved in a game before I have done with the one I'm playing (that can either mean I beat it or I give up on it). Toom many games together are never a good idea, it spoils the fun, it becomes something that needs to be done and not time you spend for entertainment. I know the temptation of getting the new hot title is always around the corner, but what can wait? The game gets cheaper or other games you are more interested in come out...

LOL,I have the complete opposite problem.There aren't any games because I finish them fast (not the RPG or RTS ones though) I'm at the final few missions in Prototype and that is the last unfinished game in my collection(except(of course)mount&blade which I HATE:x).I'm going today to see if there is anything new in the store:(

It used to take me a long time to complete games as well. Tomb Raider 4 way back when took me a year to complete, but I only had that one game with me, and I was taking my time.
These days, I typically finish a game in a week or two. I think STALKER is going to take me a little longer though. chandu83

I can't even finish the first section of a game in a week - I usually reach the end of the first section about two weeks after I've started the game.

Then I'll often think that I must be at the halfway point, at least, or that perhaps the game is short and I'm almost near the end. Then I'll consult a walkthrough or a gameguide only to discover that I've barely even begun. It must have something to do with the way you play, or how old you are?

The other thing I've noticed is that if a game really excites me, then I'll often stop playing it, and want to go post about it at a forum or something.

too many ?

more like too litle good games to play :p

Yeah - Ive got a dozen games and add-ons that I have yet to get to. Heck, I still havn't finished Bioshock - *shame on me*
