[General Discussion] One game at a time or multiple games at once?

Yeah, I'm trying to do my best not to buy anything new for quite awhile. My backlog is absurd. It's gotten to the point where I'm dropping the idea of keeping count of how many singular games I need to finish or start, and instead I'm going by series. I buy sequels before I finish the original sometimes.

It's not that I juggle playing games at the same time, instead, I play one until it just cools off for me. At that point where my desire to play it is no longer there, I usually don't touch any game for weeks for the exact reason that I don't want more than one thing on my plate at a time. Once it gets the point that I'm not playing whatever I'm currently halfway through but I start to miss gaming, I'll take a look at my collection and pick up on something else. Even if I've made headway on that game, I usually start from the beginning.

Once I got my Wii, I began to plow through Zelda. I took a brake from it and am now determined to finish FFXII before anything, and then play Twilight Princess through to the end and I'm not going to even think about going into a game shop between now and then, otherwise I will be walking out with God of War 2 and Super Paper Mario, it's a given. And no, I haven't finished the first God of War or any previous Paper Mario games yet either.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
