I no longer have a backlog. And I've tried all the games I've wanted to play. From here on out, I'm not building back logs, and I'm just going to get the games that interest me the most.
This year? Too many. Lost count. Next year, I'll probably buy like 10 tops. Tired of keeping up with every new game. There's too many. I'd rather just take my time with one new game at a time, and also revisit old ones.
I'm going to wait for a price drop on the PS4. I'll get it if the exclusives resonate well with me. I have no interest in the XONE. As for the Wii U... I kind of want it right now, but I don't know yet.
I think the whole idea of it is idiotic. It's like going out into public and having a name badge with your first and last name. Not everyone needs to know your first and last name, and people who put their first and last name out on the internet for someone to see. And also usually post pictures of themselves and things going on in their life, well, I just can't understand why. Guess some people don't give a shit about privacy.
I must be an oddball. I always finish the games i buy, and only get one game at a time. I take my time and see everything there is to see. I also research the games i get really well to avoid getting something I don't like. The only game that I got this generation that I didn't finish was Darksiders2. I actually thought it was a really fun game, but it was really long and got to repetitive for me. I like to complete games and then compare my opinion of it to different game reviews.
I used to do that. It's really the best way to play games. I'm slowly getting back into that. It's hard to keep myself from buying new games since I have lots of money, but I'm trying. There's really no point in buying something, if it's just going to sit there while I play other games. And also the idea of having an unfinished game really annoys me to the point where I force myself to rush through game A just so I can get to game B. And that's a waste. Like you said, I'd prefer to take my time and see everything there is to see.
I play a few hours a day, and then on my days off, I've been known to play like 10hrs or more. Most people don't even play an hour a day. That's really the only thing that defines the difference between "casual" and "hardcore." Though I wouldn't use the term hardcore either. I really think of myself more of as in the moderate range. Cause two to three hours of gameplay a day isn't that much.
