it's called: My STEAM library... I actually wished Steam would give money back if you buy a game, don't install it and leave it for a year just sitting there...

Idk I have like 30 games. Here is what I did to finish my games. I organised it all into 3 piles. 1st pile was finished games, games that I do not need to bother going back to. 2nd pile was games that are still playable after you finish, for example uncharted 2 for the multiplayer. 3rd pile was unfinished games that I rarely played. With the 3rd pile I stacked them in order of my excitement for them and just started on them from top to bottom. I have like 8 games left to beat/play to its fullest,

Weird I thought it was perhaps the 1,000+ games you have on your phone.

You and me both bud. Too many games so little time.

I have that problem. I just lie to myself and say that I'm a collector. It takes away the pain. On the plus side, I often do go back and play games that I put on the shelf. I've finishe Valkyria Chronicles three years after I bought it and I'm playing Dead Space right now. I don't mind having new experiences on stand by.

I think I'll post a list of all of the games I've barely played since this gen began. I need something to be depressed about.

It took me over a year to finally open and beat NSMB Wii...  I still have at least 5-10 Wii games that I have barely played or haven't played at all.   I use the collector crutch also.  It is almost like collecting sports cards but at least you can open it one day and actually play with it.  You don't have to worry too much about your hobby until you reach Angry Video Game Nerd collecting levels.  You might have a problem when you drop 500+ on the CD-i to play the terrible games just to bitch at them.

Although that reminds me that I haven't linked these awesome videos in awhile...  At least the Nintendo / Phillips deal resulted in this.

Just force yourself to play one of the games.
In my experience even if you're undecided about playing a certain game, just pop it in and play it and you gonna have a good time.
The weird thing is, even though I had lots of fun with such a game, I still need to force myself again the next day to continue where I left off.

Okay.  Let's do this.

PS3:

• Dead Space:  Made it to the asteroid section last night.  Had it for three years but I'm finally playing it.
• Devil May Cry 4: Got it for $10 or something (same day as Dead Space).  Played it for about two hours.
• Final Fantasy XIII-2: Got it the day it released.  Have no idea what the fuck is going on. Still bought the DLC.  WIll beat is someday.
• inFamous:  Got it the week it came out.  Got bored with it but I'll force myself to beat it.
• Nier:  Got it for $10 about a year ago.  Was having fun but then I stopped playing it.
• No More Heroes Paradise:  Hated every other version of this game so I bought it on day one and I hate it.
• Prince of Persia (2008): A Christmas gift from '08.  I need to finish it.
• A lot of downloaded titles but I'm not gonna turn on my PS3 right now.

Wii:

• Kirby's Epic Yarn:  Played the tutorial and liked it.  Never played it again.
• No More Heroes:  Heard it was a great game.  Bought it and hated it.
• No More Heroes 2:  Enjoyed the original so much that I bought the sequel and hated it.

• Red Steel:  I got pretty far into it before I put it on the shelf for years.

• Blue Dragon:  Had it for years.  Was having fun with it but then got sidetracked.
• Bully:  Haven't played it once.  My kid beat it, though.  Looked like a ton of fun.

• Deadly Premonition:  Was great but reaaally tedious outside of story missions.
• Condemned 2:  Haven't even played it.  Someday.
• Dark Sector:  It was $9.  I liked it while I played it but I didn't finish it.  Halfway through, maybe?

• Dead Rising 2:  Loved the first.  Didn't enjoy this one.  I'm probably one hour in.
• Dragon Age Origins:  I REALLY need to sit down with this game some day.
• Fight Night Round 3:  Got it for free.  It was evidence but another cop gave it to me. Never even played it.
• Ghost Recon Advance Warfighter:  The first great 360 game.  I stopped playing it after three missions.

• Episode From Liberty City:  Couldn't bring myself to play these two.
• Halo ODST:  After I finish Halo 2 (currently playing), I'll play it.

• Star Ocean 3:  Got it with a Gamestop gift card.  I really want to play it someday.
• Dance Central 2:  We played the first one like the world was coming to an end. Why didn't we play this one as much?  I even bought a soundbar for my livingroom TV just for this game!!
• Child of Eden:  I was having fun with this one but then I just stopped playing it.
• Perfect Dark Zero:  This game is a lot of fun, actually.  I only play it co-op, though.  When my partner (PrincessNYA420) wants to play, we'll play it again.  We're on mission 4.
• Prince of Persia The Forgotten Sands:  The only PoP game that I didn't own.  Got it for $5 from XBLA
• I have probably 100 (or more!) XBLA games.  I probably beat a third of them.
• There's a ton of other 360 games in my closet but I didn't have room for them on my shelf anymore.  Hell, most of the games in this list aren't even on the shelf right now.  Off the top of my head, NBA Street, Tenchu Z, and Ninja Blade are resting safely and barely touched in my closet.
• *edit* Add Max Payne and WWE 12 to the list.  Two day one purchases that were really good but somehow got pushed to the side.

Okay.  I DO play a lot of games and I do beat a lot of games but I've bought waaaaay more than I could ever play.  Sometimes, I want to play a game and I don't play anything because I don't even know where to start.  On top of that, games like Resident Evil 4 and 5, Gears of War, and the Batman Arkham titles get multiple playthroughs (like five or more) while other games don't even get a second glance.  And that's just the way it is.

I say we take all the game's that we played for a whole of 10 minutes, sell them, and only buy a game one at a time. Don't buy a new game until we're done. I think that'll solve all our problems.

I think my problem was that I had to buy every single game I was remotely interested in.  I was buying ten games a month at some points.  Hell, probably many points!  There's hardly anything I want on the horizon for the next several months so I think I'm good.  This is a good time for me to do some catching up.

I do want to buy Castlevania Lords of Shadow, though.  But I don't feel like I NEED to buy it like I did with a lot of other games.
