I own over 760-something games. Recently I've had a spate of "i don't want to buy any more games", and the games i've bought leave an ash-like taste in my mouth (I'm looking at you Batallion Wars 2!)

Out of those mass of games, I doubt I've completed more than i have digits on my feet and hands, and this has to change. Something has to give, i WILL enjoy the games i have, or i WILL get rid of the damn things.

They take up my money, my room (and in the case of MMO's, my life) and it's time that they do something for me. It's time to...

Play games.

Oh i play games. I normally get stuck, then after a few tries, give up and never go back. Xbox and their achievements helped a little (especially doing CoD2 on Veteran mode... oh lordy the hours i wasted on that bastard for those stupid achievement points!), but there isn't achievements on all games is there?

So where to start. Do i go back to basics, pick up the NES or SMS and start loading the games up, or top down and pop one of the 360 or Wii games in? Either way, I'm going to keep track of the games i play semi-daily, my thoughts on the game, and then when i complete it, I'll add it to the (hopefully soon to be) growing list on my blog.

I want, by this time next year, to have finished.... what's a reasonable amount of games? 30? 50? 100? I want to finish a set amount of games by this time next year.

It all depends on the game. 50 games is a game every week with two weeks for spill over. I would aim for that.

As for the game, start on the NES and go chronologically if you can. Pass over a few RPGs if you want 50 games.
I only keep about 30 games to my name... play about 6 of them a week at the most.
Hmm there's the hassle of digging the NES out and finding all the bits for it. Still if i can find the portable TV, i can set it up next to the bed.
Fucking eh, 760 games?! Thems be a lot of games.

I only have around 100 between all of my consoles. I feel so inferior.
And another thing. I've said it before and I'll say it again. I love your avatar!

She was my favorite character in the Aliens VS Predator arcade game. What I wouldn't do to play it once again. That and Bucky O' Hare.
Find the first game in a series, then start from there, finish the series, move on. Break it up with single shot games.
Sell em' on ebay. No, I'm kidding. Hell I think I beat like 10 games last year haha. I don't have the time to try and beat that many games..I'd say 30 would be reasonable.
i think you should sell the games that you aren't ever going to play anymore to us robots. we will be more than willing to take them off your hands for a reasonable price.
Sell?! WHAA! I keep saying "i should sell some games" but then conveniently forget all about the decision soon after.

I bought Phantasy Star Universe (And Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Blue) on Thursday, so i'm playing through PSU's single player at the moment. I'm not going online with it, but for £6, you can't really argue at the single player. I have but never played the original PSO's so this is my final nod to their greatness.
