Secret Shame - My Massive Backlog

Time for another confession. I've mentioned my gaming ADHD, so it should come as no surprise that I've got a massive, massive backlog. I'm talking about a backlog so massive I honestly don't see any way that it will ever be beaten down. At this point I'm probably better off just admitting that I'll never actually play the games and be done with it. I sometimes like to think that I'm a collector of video games and that makes my problem better. I know that's not really true, but I it doesn help the pain just a little

Here's just a partial list of the games I have that I want to actually beat. They're not listed by system or any particular order.

  • Halo 2 - Never actually beaten the single play campaign. Started running through it in co-op mode, but didn't finish it befored I moved.
  • Paper Mario 2: The 1000 Year Door
  • Metal Gear Solid: Twin Snakes
  • Metal Gear Solid 2
  • Metal Gear Solid 3
  • Eternal Darkness
  • Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
  • Legend of Zelda: The Twilight Princess
  • Marvel Ultimate Alliance
  • Viva Pinata
  • God of War
  • Kingdom Hearts
  • Kingdom Hearts 2
  • Guitar Hero 2 (Need to beat Expert mode)
  • Crackdown
  • Just Cause
  • GTA: SA
  • Pokemon Diamond
  • Phoenix Wright: Trials & Tribulations

And these are just the games that are at the top of the backlog. I've still got tons more games that I haven't beaten. Hell, in same cases I haven't even played them. And there's still BioShock to finish up. Then Halo 3 comes out, Mass Effect, Metroid Prime 3, and the list just goes on and on.
