And in the infamous words of Cadbury's, "How do you eat yours?". Or rather, how do you cope with yours? For personal reasons my gameplaying in the beginning half of 2003 was limited at best and it wasn't until 2004 that I really got stuck into things like Wind Waker and what have you. As a result, I've got almost 20 games that have barely seen the inside of my machines, let alone actually been sat down with and experienced.
No doubt we all manage to throw ourselves head first into such a situation during Christmas time, what with this ridiculous policy of companies releasing a few great titles all year around and then unleashing dozens of, at the very least, good games on us all, and I've seen people cope with this in dramatically different ways. Myself, I just panic and try to play everything at once before being rational about it and settling on a few titles at a time - of course, this means that anything I buy just gets thrown on the shelf for months before I get round to it. However, one of my friends, even though he might be really enjoying a particular game, will just offload it on ebay without remorse!
I was wondering how you all cope with them and what things you think you've missed out on as a result; as in, ignoring Splintercell on Live to catch up on some stuff and then coming back a month later to find everyone is level one million
