[Mr. Gundam]

I should note that my backlog is current gen only. If I actually listed my Xbox/GC/PS2 backlog, life as we know it would cease to exist.

[iconoclast]

Insurmountable. Seriously, if I listed my entire backlog, you'd have to scroll for a minute to get past it. So right now my top priority is:

- Clear the first loop of Ketsui & 1000 it
- Clear the first loop of Dodonpachi Dai Ou Jou Black Label & 1000 it
- Clear Original mode with Reco in Mushihime-sama Futari & get various achievements   
     -Clear Maniac mode in Mushihime-sama Futari Black Label
- 1000 Otomedius G
- Clean up various achievements in Dodonpachi Daifukkatsu
- Get at least 47/50 achievements in Muchi Muchi Pork! & Pink Sweets
- 1000 Death Smiles 2X. Already got all the hard achievements, the rest will be easy.
- Play Wrestle Kingdom and 1000 it
- Platinum Yakuza 3
- 1000 Smackdown vs. Raw 2011
- 1000 Marvel vs. Capcom 3
- 1000 Tales of Vesperia
- Complete the main story of Red Dead Redemption
- Complete 999
- Complete Persona 2

everyone here has some sort of backlog... i dont really have a set "path" - i just grab the next game i see

[cool breeze]

Too many, including games I haven't bought yet and want to play.

The two immediate ones that I can see because I haven't opened them are Yakuza 3 and Majin and the Giant.  I got Yakuza 3 several months ago and now Yakuza 4 is coming out lol.

I don't always play the next game I want.  Like, I play whatever I'm in the mood for, even if it's just jumping into Just Cause 2 and blowing shit up.

[fistfulofmetal]

any game i don't end up playing within a month or so of release isn't gonna get played until its super cheap or not at all.

[Joe Molotov]

[The Sceneman]

whoa Joe! Thats a good pile of games!

My "backlog" (plus gaming roadmap for 1st half 2011) is currently:

get around to beating (RPGs Im partway through):

Persona 4
Valkyria Chronicles
Tales of Vesperia
Etrian Odyssey 3

get around to beating:
Dead Rising 2 (at least once  )
Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 (I would have by now if It didn't hard freeze my Xbox every 3 minutes. I might try re-downloading it, maybe my game file is corrupted)

Mop up cheevs/ attain 100% in:

Super Meat Boy
Vanquish
Deadly Premonition
Bayonetta
Borderlands

Practice and get good at:
Guwange
Muchi Muchi Pork


so yeah I've got a bit to catch up on! Also need to get around to selling Alan Wake and Halo Reach, and 100%ing Vanquish and DR2 so I can flip those also.

So that I can buy:
Duke Nukem Forever
Bulletstorm (will likely be Bargainstorm soon so will wait for it)
Yakuza 3 (ditto for bargain bin item)
Resonance of Fate
Child of Eden
That new Suda/Mikami game (Souls of the Damned? cant remember the title)


Also I would appreciate some direction in which order I should tackle this backlog! I should get cracking on Vanquish so I can sell it while the gettings good.

[drew]

i can't type it either because i don't have one

[Raban]

It looks too fucking big.

Still, I've been working away at it. Keep getting side-tracked by fighting games and games I've already beaten.

[Bildi]

Too big to list.

But I'm trying not to buy new games (Dead Space 2 :'() until I finish at least some of them.

[pilonv1]

Managed to knock off Batman AA, VVVVVV, Risen and Dinner Date recently. Put a few more hours into Dirt 2 as well but nowhere near finished. Still have way too much shit left there but as someone else said I'm buying less so it's going down slowly.

@ XFE. Just end yourself

[Bildi]

Games I haven't opened:
Mass Effect 2
Castlevania

[Bildi]

You make us all feel a lot better dcharlie.

[demi]

I think it's easier to understand that all of us will die without finishing the game we wanted to go back to. So just go at your own pace and enjoy the ride.

Oh and keep buying games you won't get to so you can resell them when it's time to pay bills.

[tiesto]

Hundreds upon hundreds of games... currently finishing up Fable 2, then onto Fable 2 DLC, and then Nier... after that, I am gonna try and beat the Suikoden, Wild Arms and BOF games I have yet to finish (that is, Suikoden 3 onwards, Wild Arms 2, 4, 5, Alter Code F, XF, and BOF2 and 4). After that I dunno, still want to play Grim Grimoire, Metal Saga, and the Growlanser games one of these days.

Also really want to play Radiant Historia, when I finish DQ6.

[chronovore]

This topic is a honeypot.

And XFE is not exaggerating.

A gamer without at least a couple games in the backlog is like a gourmand with an empty kitchen, I say.  Highly suspicious and likely a pedophile.

My backlog:

[EmCeeGrammar]

Dawn of Discovery- but I got it last week

I think most of you have a problem.  Except for Boscius.  I salute you sir.

edit: Wait, I'm also behind on fluidity, beat trip flux, and art style light trax. Everything is pretty recent though except for Light Trax.

[ferrarimanf355]

I got a gazillion XBLA and PSN games I need to play. Damn sales.  :'(

[chronovore]

Games with which I am ready to be done:
GTA: Vice City Stories PSP - Started playing in 2008, have been trying to savor the "last" of the GTA3-era writing and gameplay. As of this morning, I'm on the final mission. With the Chinatown Wars DS game on portable, and Read Dead Redemption redefining what I want in an Open World Game, I'm ready to move on.
GTA: Liberty City Stories PSP - Been playing this even longer than VCS, for the same reason.
Just Cause: I've had this forever, unopened. Now it may be time, well, just 'cause.
Red Faction Guerrila: At some point after all this, I may get tired of getting in and out of cars to kill a guy.

Games which I haven't even started, but keep thinking I will:
Banjo Kazooie Nuts and Bolts: Hopefully I won't get tired of building cars to get in and out of.
Guitar Hero 5
Midnight Club: Los Angeles
Burnout Paradise
Batman Arkham Asylum
InFamous
Kinect Road Rage Drivers R Us Joy Ride
