How Many Unplayed Games Do You Currently Own?

i have played at least 30 minutes of all of my games, but if you count less than an hour as unplayed then "i can't even begin to think about it"

yeah i probably have at least 10 games i bought on steam when they were <$5 and havent touched yet

If this is counting non-current games, then 'I can't even begin to think about it'. For starters I have at least a couple of dozen or so PS1 games that I picked up cheap, as many PC games, and there's a couple of Sega Saturn games and I don't even own a Saturn. Funnily enough, I've been very disciplined in with Steam, as I've played everything I've bought there.

Just some very recent XBLA purchases, but that's because I've had a clear out and traded the (physical) ones which it was clear I wasn't going to play.

I bought a Humble Indie Bundle and never played any of the games. :/

HIB is for charity though, so it doesn't really count.

i don't think i've even downloaded any freeware that i've never played, far less paid cash money for something.

tbf some things i might've played about twice.

oh and i've got Skyrim installed cos our Elliot bought it for my birthday despite me telling him the engines on the computer wouldnae take it

I bought The Witcher and ME2 but never actually installed them

The Witcher is like a 2GB d/l or something.

no wait, the Enhanced Edition is 8.4GB

yeah someone got me a game as a gift on steam, not yet played. which is shameful I know.
Also a couple of other Total Wars games on Steam, which were all on offer one weekend.

I also bought the complete batch of the Monkey Island games, not the old classics but the newer ones. Played the first one of the batch, didn't like the new style animation. Never bothered with the rest. Think it was a one off deal or something.

voted 10-25, but given the # of iOS games I buy on sale & then sit sit sit on it's probably over 25. those Christmas sales are so good!

I have a tonne of games that I've bought but I'm saving for long months of recovery an inevitable major operation or what have you. Mostly RPGs. I've never played a Bioware game but I buy them when I see them on sale. JRPG collections, Bethesda stuff. Never even opened them, seeing as I'm healthy as an ox, win-win, you see

50-100, I tried to count it, but I'm sure I was leaving a bunch out. A lot of those are Steam cheapies and indie bundles, but a shameful amount are just games that have been left on a shelf, sealed and never opened, for years...

Hah, I didn't even count iOS. Even the ones I paid for... that would add another dozen or so.

I rarely buy used (though recent Best Buy and Gamefly sales have been taking their toll) but it's really hard for me to resist a current generation game that I have the slightest interest in that's ~$5. But the nice part is, I really don't spend that much since I hardly ever buy games at release, and never at full price.

I'm a crazy hoarder when it comes to video games though, no doubt. You'll see me on one of those cable shows in a 20 years, all alone, dying in a collapsing house, but instead of dead cats it'll be mint condition cases... I went through a REALLY long time in my life where I had ample time to play but no money to buy these games, so maybe I'm just kinda backsliding hardcore

I voted 25-30, pretty much all RPGs. The others range from "fodder for convalescence" (MGS 3), gifts (Uncharted), highly recommended and bought for cheap but haven't played (Psychonauts, Eternal Darkness), a couple of iOS titles that I'm saving for a long flight (Monkey Island, Pirates) and a handful of N64 games that I bought as a teenager in a fit of completism (Conker, Excitebike, Paper Mario, Blast Corps)

i voted 1-5. i own a lot of games, but i also play a lot of games, so most get played at some point or another. (notable exceptions are games like europa 3 on Steam whatever that i bought and my macbook couldn't really handle system reqs so i'm waiting for computer upgrade before i can really play them.)

man i am totally difft from you guys.

i usually mainline 1 game at a time until i've totally seen its last little corner, most often a big marquee title. i game on an xbox. i am the enemy! maybe

I basically never buy hard copies of console games unless I know I want to play them a lot. But iOS games and other downloadable games are a different story.

I hoard them too. w/ every console I say I need one fighting game, one air combat game, one pro football, one college football, one soccer, etc etc etc. & then lots of rpgs which I'm gonna play one of these days I promise, right, when it's very rainy

& like others I wait until they've reached low price & I get all the dlc in the GOTY edition so there are all these expansions & sooooo much content & I can never start b/c once you start you're gonna want to play it into the ground so instead I'll play another round of Ticket to Ride ON IPAD thank you very much

& oh good grief if I had a pc or didn't complain about booting into windows I'd be even worse b/c gog.com every week has some sale where I'm like "yes I loved the Temple of Elemental Evil module so I should get the game, sure, I'll have 40 hours sitting around for that"

A bunch of cheap PS2 horror games (Fatal Frame, plus II III, Siren, Clock Tower 3, etc.) and Xbox games (XIII, Advent Rising, Pariah, Deus Ex, etc.) that I still plan to get to. Doing pretty well on the 360, though - just Shadows of the Damned & Brutal Legend waiting after the latest Silent Hill).

xp you dodged a bullet, i hated ToEE

Oh god. If Steam counts, the high end.

My PC CD-ROM copy of the original GTA is still in it's cellophane wrapping.

i usually mainline 1 game at a time until i've totally seen its last little corner, most often a big marquee title. i game on an xbox. i am the enemy! maybe

this is me pretty much, except for iphone and even then i tend to play to death if i don't delete immediately after trying and disliking. however ticket to ride has been sitting unridden on there for a few months now.

i play everything i buy, but since since "coming back" into gaming and actually having money (versus high-school allowance) for these things, i tend to buy new games rather than finish old ones

right now, i've still got to beat:

- uncharted
- gta 4
- katamari damacy
- silent hill 2
- final fantasy x
- medieval II: total war

and shit tons of steam games, mostly humble bundle stuff

speaking of Katamari we shd have a thread for "what games will you never finish 100 percent because fuck collecting a million roses right?"

I'm not going to count games bought through Steam, etc, on a whim as that would be truly depressing. But between XBox 360, PS3 and 3DS I have over 20 - basically any 'big' title from the last ~2/3 years that hasn't been nominated in the C&P polls... What a colossal waste of money. I have a rule that I don't buy full-price games, but the moment a title-of-interest drops below £20, I'll scoop it up even though I know I have an ever-increasing list of unplayed games.

*that hasn't been nominated in C&P = games I haven't put on my ballot, I mean.

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

I didn't want to do the homework to find out my answer to this poll but 5-10 seems about right (not including Might&MagicM1-5 in the anthology edition). Mostly unplayed PS2 games.

got arkham asylum yesterday, so i guess that makes it 1, you monster

the poll's options were a little too large...should've counted by 2's, fool

pfft, if people were being honest and including steam/iOS games I am not taking these answers as honest

10-20 ps2 games, 5-10 ds games, 20ish steam games

If we exclude indie bundles and things bought for under £5 in Steam sales (way too many) then probably 1-5, but I have a big stack of PSP and PC games which I have played for half an hour each and fully intended to come back to at some point months/years ago

probably a couple of PC games which I bought (again, in sales) and then discovered didn't run on my graphics card too

yeah, i'm like, really? i'm the only freak with 50-100? come on fellas
