I have a long list of games to get through by March and I'm downloading 3 new games now
Anyone else have a bad habit of doing this? "I don't need another game, but..."
Ugh what is wrong with me

I only recently acquired it with my catch up into the world of PC gaming. It's only getting worse for me.

My steam list keeps getting longer and longer.... same for my 3ds games ownership. I still haven't beaten the new Zelda. I'm at ganon at least so i'm almost there!
Welcome to my life.
Story of my life... Seriously have probably beat less than 5% of the games I own.
Everybody has this habit. Don't feel pressured. Games are for fun. Is it fun to buy new games? Does it make you happy? Then keep doing it. If not, then stop. Is there a new game that looks so good that you have to have it? Would it make you happy to have it? Then get it and be happy. There's no rule that says you have to finish every game you own. There's no time limit. No one is checking up on how many unplayed games are in your Steam collection. Think of it as just that, a collection. Not a TODO list. Not chores you have to complete. Not a job to do. They're just games. Don't let your possessions possess you.

Nope. I buy a game and complete it before moving on to another. Unless it's a particularly bad game, but the last time I ditched a game before finishing it was well over two years ago.
I like Kung-Fu.
Dr Unne said it best. I've given up on feeling like I have to finish all my best game purchases. Even if a game is stellar, sometimes you get your fill and lose interest. You enjoyed it. The developers got paid. Everyone wins. No harm done and no big deal
But I can totally relate. After I got my gaming laptop and got back into PC gaming my list has exploded as well. Steam has some great deals. GOG has some great nostalgia. Its all awesome. But there is way too much. And I can't complain. Better to have too much to do than too little I suppose
Yes, but seeing that I review games on a weekly basis having a seemingly never ending supply of games to play isn't a bad thing.
I'm in a similar situation to shion, trying to clear a game or two in my backlog before the holiday lineup starts but I just bought Rogue Legacy and The Last of Us Remastered just arrived...
I don't know... I wouldn't be surprised if BoB had a spreadsheet for everyone.
Ah, the joys of having a backlog. I have a habit of starting games and then not finishing them, then coming back to them a few months later and starting them again. I tend to focus on one game at a time on each one of my consoles, so a lot of what I start gets neglected after a while. I buy a lot of games as soon as they come out as well, so things do pile up...but there are periods of quiet in the year (like now) when I usually catch up with things, so it all works out. I never worry too much about things; I'll get around to it all eventually.
I forbid myself to buy any new games now, just so I can concentrate on the games I have now. I don't even have that many relative to you guys, but still.
I was actually doing quite well with this until MissH smurfed everything up by buying me a PS4 for my birthday
I was two-thirds of the way through Tomb Raider on PS3 but that has taken a back burner now as I'm properly into Infamous: Second Son. It's awesome.
