Just because I shelve games does not mean I didn't like them.

Shelved:

Metroid Prime 2: Echoes
(dunno why, it just lost the appeal the first had, but I might play it eventually in the future, although I'd rather just play prime again)

that's pretty much it, I beat all my games. Can't believe you ppl buy so many games and then don't even finish them lol. Send em over here.



when you say shelved,

how much did you play of these games?

is it straight away,you just don't like it or do you go along way,obviously it varies

Sheesh you guys (and gals?) are wimps at finishing stuff.

The only game I've shelved is Lair which I only bought for 1.59 to see if it was really that bad (for the curious it wasn't but it wasn't that good either).  I do have some unfinished games due to time issues but I'll finish them later this year (the main one being Siren Blood Curse).

I'm thinking I I should just ask those of you shelving games to mail them to me - I'd save a fair bit on money as it looks like a lot of decent games are being shelved there.

Hey, be reasonable - when you buy games as often as some ofu s do, and some of them are as big as they are (Persona in partiuclar is pretty big), it's only natural that some will not be to one'sl iking. I mean, I intend to go back to Persona 4, yes, but can I really be blamed for setting it aside when I've got so many other games to play?

Only game I havn't beat this gen is Dead Rising and Gears of War



 

I have a sad record. Majority of the games I own I have not beat.
My list would be fairly long to list but I shelved more games than I've ever beaten.

Many were just started
Some were played enough
Few were shelved unopened

Yeah it's under 360 list

As far as how long I play them before I shelf it varies, at least 3 hours though.

@d21lewis - I just meant THIS gen lol

And yeah I shelve games when other games come around as well, the first 3 months of this year was bad for that, I blame that for not finishing Darksiders :P  And because it's shelved doesn't mean I won't go back to play it, just 95% sure I won't :)
