    Question Clearing out my backlog

    So I have loads of catching up to do, here is my wishlist of games: https://www.playfire.com/larch/wishlist What should I add and what should I remove so I can start knocking them down one at a time.

    Skip Brink (from what I heard).

    Dead Island probably not much fun alone.

    Darkness 2, buy at half or bargain bin price (will post review this week still).

    Dead Island wasn't half bad (only played single player though) - dragged a little towards the end though. Still definitely a brutal game.

    So it is time we did a check list again. For sanity's sake.

    Kingdoms of Amaleur - unopened.
    Shadows of the Damned - unopened.
    Red Faction - unopened.
    Uncharted 3 - unopened (most likely sacrilege I know)
    Skyrim - still not finished.
    God of War 3 - opening level......
    and BF3 - have to, just have to, make Eagle.

    Then there were 3 or 4 titles from the last KH sale - also not opened.

    How are your lists going?

    I've sold so many games in the last couple of months that it's actually done wonders to my backlog. :P

    Progress in the last 6 months:

    Finished
    Assassin's Creed Revelations
    Batman Arkham City
    Crysis 2
    Deus Ex Human Revolution
    Gears of War 3
    inFamous 2
    Portal 2
    Resistance 3
    Shadows of the Damned
    Uncharted 3

    Progress
    ICO & SOTC Collection [started]
    Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess [about 20 hours into the game now]
    Nier [about 5 hours into the game]
    Soul Calibur V [cleared story mode and busy trying to unlock all equipment]

    No Progress
    Darksiders
    Persona 3 FES
    Persona 4
    StarCraft 2
    Star Ocean The Last Hope
    Super Mario Galaxy
    Super Mario Galaxy 2
    Valkyria Chronicles

    Still sealed
    Alice
    Skyrim
    Rage
    The Witcher
    The Witcher 2

    Biggest things keeping my backlog afloat at the moment is the lack of
    1) A gaming PC
    2) The will to play SD games

    Recently finished Uncharted 2 and Killzone 3, so feeling a bit better about where I'm at.

    Shadow of the Colossus HD - got through the first 5-6 bosses, stopped to play UC2/KZ3
    ICO HD - not started yet
    Duke Nukem Forever - just started recently (Wow. Just, wow.)
    Rage - not started yet
    Borderlands - not started yet (shush!)
    Gears 3 - want to do way more MP, just don't seem to be able to squeeze it in
    FIFA 12 - play occasionally, but not enough
    Mass Effect 2 - not started yet (again, shush!)

    Forza 3 is absolutely murdering my gaming time at the moment.
