wtf, do you guys have jobs or anything?

I play about 5+ hours a day and I'm having trouble finishing 20-30 games in a year.
For example, I'm just about to finally platinum gundam 2 dynasty warriors, after roughly 160 hours. I'm working on etrian odyssey (40 hours in), Uncharted 2 (80 hours of game time)

That right there is two months worth of gaming.....
On top of it, I haven't even touched COD2 story mode yet, I'm getting Bayonetta in 5 days, have a 2-games-out gamefly subscription of which I haven't even started the game I got 2 days ago....

My definition of "finishing a game" is when I complete the singleplayer mode and not when I get my platinum trophy or 1000G.

But that's such an arbitrary marker! Finish singleplayer....on just one difficulty? Not even attempt "hard/extreme mode" or online tournament/competition?

THat's SUCH a waste of money imo!

If the game is mediocre: one playthrough

if the game is good: one playthrough and looking for some achievements afterwards

if the game is great: one playtrhough and getting as much achievements as possible without wasting too much time (one playthrough limit)

if the game is awesome: 2 or 3 playthroughs and getting at least 80% of the achievements

 

If the game provides a good co-op mode, I might complete it more often, but never with the same friend.

 

In the end it's still cheaper than going to watch a movie in a cinema. (costs/entertainment ratio)
