How many games are you "backlogged" on?

Curse you Disgaea and your addicting battle system! My PSP battery wasn't made to handle that kind of commitment! Because of you I can't even get around to play Chinatown Wars! And Pokemon Platinum comes out on Monday! Yeeaarrrgghh!
 
Since my last reply I have pretty much finished off Mass Effect, Left 4 Dead, and fairly close to finished with RE5. I also picked up GH3 for $14.99 so had to add that to the list. Currently working on PGR4 and Far Cry 2. Still having a hard time getting into FC2. That campaign is just not fun at all to me.
 
I recently had a huge backlog of games, games that I knew I would never EVER play. The games that I usually have backlogged for years are those in which I only really like a few things about them, and not enough to actually play/beat the game.

One example is Persona 3. I bought the game brand new, 50 bucks when it came out. Actually I bought two copies, one to play and one to keep sealed. I really enjoyed the graphics, and the music was phenominal, but the gameplay was so damn boring to me. I don't even own the originoal sealed package anymore because it plummeted in price with the release of FES.

So anyway, point of the story is I recently sold all my backlogged games. Now I have room for the games coming out this year, mostly DS games, that I'm very much looking forward to. Unfortunatly a few games that were recently released that I WAS lookign forward too have gotten bad reviews (Star ocean, etc).

I'm really looking forward to playing Black Sigil, Suikoden Teikries (spelling?), and my backlogged zelda games (im currently working on Ocarina of Time, yes I missed out on this gem, next is windwaker).
 
I still have not made much progress with the backlogg list. Several games that I was caught up in ended up releasing DLC which added a lot more replay value.
I did recently complete the new X-men Origins Wolverine game. That was the best movie game I have ever played. Frustrating at points but still fun.
I am also very proud to say that I have only bought 1 brand new game this year and that was GH:Metallica. I think I might get rid of Far Cry 2. I just dont have a good time with the campaign in that game and hardly ever play the multiplayer.
Finally broke my compulsive game buying habbit!!! I pretty much just rent everything now. :sly:
