With this month being full of big name releases I may consider for the first time, play mulitple titles, on multiple platforms, at the same time. I usually like to focus my attention on one game at a time because with my increasingly busier schedule, it would be difficult for me to realisticallyfinish games if I multitask. I am just wondering how many of the forum members are adept to playing more than one or two titles at once on a regular basis.

When Im playing a story intensive game, ill stick to that one game until Ive finished. I find it much more engaging that way, not getting distracted by other games. But if its a multiplayer game or something, Ill have loads on the go at once. Before Alan Wake, i was playing the Halo Reach beta, BC2 and DiRT2 at once. Now ill be playing all them + Forza 3 until RDR comes out on Friday, in which case ill probably just focus on that until I finish it.

When im playing games that i dont intend to play online/ multiplayer i usually try to finish the game with out playing other games to make sure i get all the game has to offer. That way if im playing, say Final Fantasy i dont get the erg to race in motorstorm or shoot someone in the face in call of duty.

when it comes to single player games i can only play one at a time and don't move to another game until it's finishes. as for MP games i generally rotate between 2 or 3 every couple of weeks. also i can't play any multiplayer game until i've finished the SP portion i don't know why though

It depends. Usually I focus on a single game more than any other, these days, but that's often so I can get my review for SWM done in time for the deadline. Otherwise, I just play whatever sounds fun at the moment.

Usually, I'll bounce around between a few different genre games. I'll play a football game every couple of days, maybe mix in a little Burnout when I'm in the mood, BC2 when I feel like shooting someone, but I limit myself to one campaign/story at a time. It was Uncharted, but currently, it's Assassin's Creed II, and I think it'll be Valkryia Chronicles.

Two is the most I could commit to and most of the time it's usually one story driven single player game and one online game.

Usually just the one, but if I'm feeling really adventurous two at once, but that's only if I want to show off and it usually dosn't achieve much.

Honestly though it varies from about 1 to 10. At the moment either two or none depending on how you look at it.

About 2-3. Depends on the game type though. I'm playing 2 RPGs at the moment, so that's about it for me. I can usually do 3 action-oriented games at once though, or 1 RPG and 2 action/adventure games.

I usually play one until I get bored of it, and then start playing another one until I get bored of that also, and then I repeat the cycle. It's a wonder that I manage to finish any games at all. =P

As many as I feel compelled to. I don't have a set number, where I'll say I need to finish a game before starting a new one.

too damn many!! right now i'm playing GOW3, just started HR even though I've owned it for a month already, just took forza3 out to play bayonetta, ME2, BC2, FF13, ahh and probably more that I can't remember. The problem with me is, as soon as a game comes out that i want, i have to go and get it, then I don't play it because I've still yet to complete the others. I'm positive the same is going to happen with RDR and AW. I'm actually sorta relieved POP didn't do so well in a strange retarded sort of way:?

For some reason I'm playing 3 games lately. Used to only be one at a time, but there's more games I'm interested in at any given moment now than ever before. I'm trying to focus on Demon's Souls right now.

I think that's why I'm playing so many right now. I got back into Demon's Souls, but have to have something else to play when I die 2 times in a row and lose tens of thousands souls :evil:.

For MP, I switch back and forth between U2 and BC2, but BC2 is lagging like crazy lately for me.

I also want to get MR this month, but may hold off until I beat Demon's Souls, which will take me a while, maybe I can attack it over the school break.
