Who here is a gaming addict that's finally bitten off more than they can chew?

I need a clone just to catch up on the games I own and need to play. It's gotten to the point where it feels like a damn to-do list because I have so many games that I haven't played or beaten yet. Bioshock Infinite? Installed, but shite...I still have Hitman, AC:III, Crysis 3, and Tomb Raider installed that I haven't touched, god knows how many other games are sitting unplayed in my Steam library.
Gaming is freaking overwhelming when you're not a kid anymore and can't devote every waking hour to beating the latest game you've bought.
This is just a thread of support for those who may have realized that gaming can be a curse as well as a gift, and sometimes we all need help...

Im a gaming addict who finally understands what it means to truely game. When i truely game it means im really hooked and if im really hooked that means only a game our two im hooked on. When on console i was so back and forth between 7+ games looking for the one or the fix. That wasnt my perception of an addict. Being able to play months of arma 2 and its mods alone =addict.

This. I fully expect my new upgrades to my computer to put me back in this scenario.
Also, although it is great, Playstation Plus has drowned me in games... I am worse than I was ever before about playing a it of tons of games.

Its not a brag.

I wasn't suggesting you were bragging. I just miss you is all and this is the form my grief is taking.
But no, I likely won't understand.

That's why I only buy one game at a time. Finish one, go get the next.

The problem is getting hooked on one game and then neglecting others, actually. I've got 190 hours in Far Cry 3 because of mods. I've been looking forward to Crysis 3, Tomb Raider, etc., so it's not that I don't want to play them, it's that I'm not having my "Blitzed" moment with them yet, so they get put off. And a combination of Steam sales and putting games off means your yet to play list grows pretty damn quick.

I did, and it fricked over my college, but it was mixed with other problems.
Sometimes you just gotta learn to disconnect. I've barely been playing video games lately because I just don't have time. Does it irritate me? Yes, but I've just got so much on my plate it's not worth it. In a year and a half when I get my CPA, I'll probably play a ton more.

Well i think your an addict. Seems like you really want to play those games and when you do you really get into them.
