Forums - Gaming Discussion - So, before the "silly season" kicks off, how is your backlog looking?

I'm doing great. I decided to buy very few games this summer and instead focused on clearing my backlog, and now I only have a few games left. I think I'll complete my backlog just in time for Halo 5's release.

Around the Network

Splatoon
Ni No Kuni
Wolfenstein The New Order
Wolfenstein The Old Blood
Metro Redux
Fez
And a bunch of Virtual Console-games

Forgot The Order 1886



Actually very good. Got Splatoon. Beated it. Finished Earthbound. Almost done with KI: U. Replaying ALttP right now, I think I'm almost done with Metroid Prime 2, haven't touched Rayman Legends, and I'll start Metroid Prime 3 when I'm done with 2... If I get going daily or once every 2 days, I may not have a backlog before September, or until I buy another game at least.



Bet with bluedawgs: I say Switch will outsell PS4 in 2018, he says PS4 will outsell Switch. He's now permabanned, but the bet will remain in my sig.

Barely have a backlog. That's what only buying games you actually want beforehand does for you.



I've kinda written off some of my older games. I just play them when I can. If the eighth gen, of games I actually intend to beat, it's not that bad.

I already pre ordered until dawn and Gears.  It's gonna be a great year!



Around the Network

I gave up on my ps3 back log :/

Doesn't look like I'll make it this year either, still to start:
- Batman Arkham knight
- Bloodborne
- Far cry 3
- Dragon age: Inquisition
- Metro redux
- Destiny
- Watch dogs
- Wasteland 2
- Dreamfall chapters
- Broken age part 2
To continue:
- LBP3
- Project cars
- Drive club
- Hohokum
- Toren
Almost finished
- GTA 5
Currently playing
- Everybody has gone to the rapture

I was thinking about getting Splatoon, I guess I won't.



So big, I had to make a spreadsheet with time of play per week and number of hours of each game.

Spreadsheet shows me, I should not buy more games until september 2016 so I can clear my must play backlog.

 

 

Forgot to add I should replay FF9 on 2015.

And "Everyone Has gone to rapture" also should be added for 2015



Since I'm all but abandoning my PS3 backlog, all I have to finish are:
-Batman Arkham Knight
-Everybody's Gone to the Rapture
-Sound Shapes (maybe)
-Another TLOU playthrough



#1 Amb-ass-ador

I don't call it backlog anymore... It's clear that I won't play most of those games. Finished all my SNES games as a kid, but not all my PS1 games and it got worse from generation to generation.

Maybe 150 retail games, not counting the stuff from steam bundles or free games that I didn't want.



I buy an average of 6 games a year and beat an average of 3 games a year. Problem is, most of the time, the 3 games I beat in a year are from my backlog. The 6 games are also spread across all my game platforms. I have a Wii, Wii U, 3DS, Ps3 and Vita. Occasionally buy stuff on Steam as well. So my backlog is terrible. I need a 2 month holiday dedicated to gaming to clear most of it.
