I have over 100 accumulated games in my backlog, half of which I have yet to touch.

Sometimes a simple hobby like gaming can turn into a uncontrollable obsession.

no.

unless games were $5 a piece, then I might overwhelm myself.

Games that I have purchased in my backlog:

Crisis Core: Final Fantasy VII (PSP)

Final Fantasy Tactics: War of the Lions (PSP)

Fallout 3 GOTY Edition (PS3) (I'm currently playing and finishing this one now.)

Mass Effect 2 (XBox 360)

Fable 2 (XBox 360)

Games yet to be purchased in my backlog:

Bioshock (Multi-Plat)

Bioshock 2 (Multi-Plat)

Dragon Age: Origins (Multi-Plat)

Borderlands (Multi-Plat)

Wii Sports Resort (Wii)

Just Cause 2 (Multi-Plat)

New Super Mario Bros. Wii (Wii)

GTA: Episodes from Liberty City (Multi-Plat)

Plus, I preordered Red Dead Redemption (PS3) and will get Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Wii) and Metal Gear Solid: Peace Walker (PSP). So, I'm a little swamped but not too bad, especially considering that I don't see another game that I want until at least September.

I like to have a certain number of games as backup, especially before summer when there are usually not that many new top releases. But right now I'm a bit overwhelmed as well.

Played? Not really. Completed? Well,

Tactics Ogre, Terra Phantastica, Eternal Arcadia, Wild Arms 3, Metal Gear Solid 4, and now Front Mission 2. There are more games that I'm probably forgetting or dont' plan to complete anyways.

I have to still play Bayonetta and GOW3. Right now I'm playing BFBC2 (I WILL get to rank 50 and get my KDR above 2!), Just Cause 2 (I want 50% completion at least), TF2 (I don't think I'm going to ever grow bored of this game, been playing since it came out with little breaks every now and then) and Red Dead Redemption (just bought it yesterday evening and it's awesome).

Definitely swamped. Looking at two, soon to be three Wii games that need to be completed; two games for the Playstation 3 and a whopping six games for the 360. There are a couple of games on the PC I wouldn't mind finishing as well. For the time being though, the 360 will be getting my attention as that's far too many unfinished games.

just got Red Dead Redemption, that alone is going to keep me busy for the remainder of the year with the amount of challenges and missions to complete.

Then I have Shadow Complex(last weapon I got was the freeze/foam gun - don't know how far I am though), Dead Space(I'm on chapter 10 I think), & Mega Man 10(I have to kill Chill Man then off to Wily's Castle) to complete.

As for games I haven't played but want to play - it's a short list:

Resdent Evil: Umbrella/Darkside Chronicles

Metroid 3

New Super Mario Bros Wii

Super Mario Galaxy (and soon Part 2)

Alan Wake

Most of the titles above are Wii games because I want a Wii, just haven't picked on up yet... Going to sometime in the future, because I want to play Other M & Metroid Trilogy

Yes I am. And I'm continuing to buy new games. Most of my backlog consists of older PS2 RPGs and Wii titles, and for some reason I just never want to play them. I'm trying to set a schedule, but I've been failing miserably at that for some time now. Oh well. I'm more concerned about all the money I'm wasting as opposed to the backlog :lol:

Just bought the Sega pack from Steam so that's like a dozen games or so I haven't played yet. Then there's Dirt2, Riddick, Trine, Ballad Of Gay Tony, Necrovision Lost Company and bunch of others that I've just tried but aren't even close to finish yet.

I got a few new games to get through with ModNation coming next week and still got a bunch of old games to get through. THe thing with me if I don't burn through them when I first get them I either come back months later or never if the game is boring (hello GTA 4 and Silent Hill Homecoming)

Nah, I usually don't buy a new game until I'm currently done the one I'm playing. I only have Tekken 6 that I have yet to play since I got it in November but I got for free so I don't feel bad about not playing it

I'm slowly making my way through mine.

Working on Zelda: OoT, and X-Com: UFO Defense atm with a little bit of Gargoyle's Quest on the side.

But I have dozens of other games I still need to beat afterwards.

I have about 100+ backlogged games. I really need to stop spending so much, but there are so many games I want. Fortunately, or maybe unfortunately I don't have a lot of money right now to spend on games. So, I guess I'll be spending less on games during the summer at least.

FEAR2

Arma 2

Stalker SOC and Clear Sky

Mass Effect 2 (made it to the last few missions and got bored)

Bad Company 2 (got about half way and went to mp and now dont play the game at all)

Company of Heroes

Modern Warfare 2

Left 4 Dead 2

I have beaten every 360 game I own but have only beaten 1 ps2 game and 1 wii game. I think the achievements have a lot to do with it. I also have more ps2 games then any other system.

The big difference is that you can go back and play old games if they're single player games anytime you want in the future. The problem however is with online games, the community may die off over time, and then the servers die overtime, then you haveno game at all lol. I think since there's too many options nowdays, you have to pick and choose your experiences, well unless you only play game few hours at the time and start on your next game.
