Not really, I have purchased around 50 PS3 games so far this gen( and rented a dozen) and what really limits me is the time I have to play those games and the fact that I want to limit the number of games still unwrapped in my backlog( it's sitting at two right now).
I have actually refrained from purchasing games I wanted to purchase because I didn't think I would have time to actually play those any time soon but right now since about 12 months I am at a point where more games come out that interest me than I have time to play, the main reason being that I have been spending a lot of time on specifics games at the expense of others games ( played 10 full seasons of franchise mode in madden10 with 10 min quarters, played 2 full season of my players in NBA2K11 with 10 min quarters ( 164 games playoff, none simulated...) and that recently a lot of the games I purchased have been long games...
Just in 2011 I am planning to buy the following :
- Mass Effect 2 & 3
- Two worlds 2
- Dragon Age 2
- KZ3
- RFoM 3
- The witchers 2
- Elder Scroll 5
- DeadSpace 2
- Uncharted 3
I do not necessary buy every iteration of a franchise though.
I did not buy CoD:Black Ops this year.( I did buy MW2 and rented Waw but never played MW1).
And I am not playing to purchase either Madden12 or NBA2K12 ( NBA2K11 has all I need in a basketball game, and Madden11 didn't feel that great after Madden10).
The main issue is really that as a generation gets older more long games start to come out that take longer to complete ( more RPGs or game like GT5 that will take ages to finish..)
