I am embarrased to say my number, and it's not pretty. I like to make a game last so i will play about 6-10 games in a week,for half hour or an hour a day -one or twogames per day, not all of them togetherBit manic but i like to play games like they are serialised rather than one big triple feature. You?

Rotating between two is difficult, I start forgetting button combo's! The last time I did switch playing, it was Condemned 2 & Legendary. I never did finish condemned. :(

I usually Only play one game at a time and play it constantly sometimes I play a RPG along with a shorter game switching between the two or abit of multiplayer. I'd Say 3 is the most I play at once.

When I switch games I have a habit of not finishing it. In theory it works great to take an RPG and play it a little at a time, while playing other games. My problem is I have a hard time getting back into it. I was really liking Dragon Age. Had put about 10 hours into it. I put it down to play the God of War collection. Since then I've played probably10 other games, and about to start God of WAr III. But have yet to go back to Dragon Age. It's now been a couple months. When I do get back to it, I'll probably start over.

Generally have a "main" one on the go which can live in the PS3 for weeks at a time. Will sometimes switch it out for a quick go on something else. I mainly enjoy racing games and am currently deeply involved in NFS Shift but will occasionally swap out for a bit of Ashes Cricket or Tekken 6 :D

I always try to focus on 1 or 2, maybe 3 but those are weird cases, and of course in different plataforms.

I made the mistake of buying too many games at once im rotating between FF13,BFBC2,WKC, and Resonance of fate. I also still have Mass Effect 2, Fallout 3 GOTY,and God of War 3 unopened.

I'm currently juggling too many games to count so who knows when i'll beat them all. After looking at my collection, it's almost scary how many games that I have yet to complete.

Last gen I pretty much played one or two games at a time only because I would only have a few new games at a time. This gen I stocked up on PS2 games that I missed out on (MGS series, Prince of Persia series, DMC series, FF series, Shadow of the Colossus) and I have pretty much ignored them all except for MGS 1 and 2 because I've been too busy with my PS3 games. However, I'm dedicated to finish them all this summer cause I hate buying games and not playing them. So yeah, too many games can be even worse than too few because when there's too many, you spend/waste more money and I found that I've enjoyed them less when I try to play them faster so I can move on to the next game.

About 4 or 5 it' hard to choose what I want to play as I have far to many PS3 games at the moment I own just over 81 PS3 games and I'm always changing I'll play half of a game then move on to the other I usually end up not finishing the others.

Only one. If I don't finish a game, I never buy another one.

Most of the time I only play one game at a time until I finish it, feels like you're more involved and not rushing through it with other games in mind. If I were to play two games at once though, they will definitely not be two RPGs.

yeah i can't do more than two or three. I can play Tekken and some pointless FPS games for fun whenever, but a full fledged game that requires you absolute attention I can't juggle around so much.

The most I've done is like 4 or 5 at one time, but not like seriously into them. Sometimes I like to take a break from a game and play another one for a couple hours even though it's not on my "official" playlist.

I'm rotating between 3 PS3 games right now although I'm just about ready to call it quits on one of them. Star Ocean has just become abysmal. It's honestly one of the worst RPGs I have played. Dead serious. I can't believe I've invested 40 hours into this game. The characters are lifeless, the visuals terrible, sidequests boring, item creation system is expansive but just too complicated, and it's just yawn-inducing. Cutscenes are lifeless, boring, and long. The only redeeming factor is the battle system, but even that gets to be tedious after awhile. Ugh.

Basically my post turned into a rant about Star Ocean. Sowwies.

So, out of those two you chose to finish Legendary? *facepalm*

Yeah I play max. 3 games a time, usually 1 or 2. And if it's 2, it's usually a single-player narrative game and a sports game that I play with friends.

I really only do that with a multiplayer game and a game I want to beat on campaign. For example, while I was playing through Mass Effect 2, I would continually go over to MW2 to play online with my friends. I normally don't play through multiple campaigns at once, like Mass Effect 2, God of War III, and Heavy Rain.

2 or 3 at a time, can't handle more, but most of the time I end up buying even more games without finishing the ones I already have. I have a pile of games I haven't even started, I'll try to play them these holidays, I hope
