Shouldn't the first poll option be:

I don't have a backlog. I finish each game I buy, weirdo!

I think part of the problem is a lot of the games i have are RPG's that take a considerable amount of time. The best thing to get through them is to focus on the Main quest and skip over the Side Quests.

^nah, that takes all the fun out of it. I have owned a copy of Skyrim since it came out but still haven't played it...I've even been buying all the DLC. I know I'll love it though.

Out of the games I've bought, maybe 8. Counting the games from PS+ that I haven't played yet, 80.

Yeah, since Sony started dumping all these free games on us with PS+, I don't concern myself with ever finishing my backlog...

0. I will only buy a game I want to play and beat it, then be done with it to move onto the next one. It's a vicious cycle if you start collecting them to play and don't. I try to only play about 5 - 10 games per year that I'm really interested in.

Re: What is the size of your backlog?

I don't have a backlog right now, but I like buying games on sale so especially around the holiday season I'll get up to 4-5 games (I'm also not a crazy gamer as I know a lot here are).

I'm playing tomb raider right now, when bioshock infinite hits $30 I'll get that. I probably won't be able to wait very long because I don't have much to play, but I'll wait until the last of us gets to $40-45.
