Both of the Wolfenstein games on the PS4. Played through the campaign on New Order, and steadily going through it to find the collectables. Loved it so much that I started the prequel, Old Blood, at the weekend - it's more of the same, just about different enough not to be boring.
Two really good games, which I picked up cheap in various sales - think New Order cost me about ?7 and Old Blood ?10. Definitely worth that! 😀

So I played a bit of EDF 2025!
I've finished EDF4.1 with Wing Diver but now need to get it done up to inferno level.
Could do with updating the review at some point as the difference between it and 2025 is incredible, they've even plugged holes on levels that were 'easy' to get power weapons.

I totalled up the number of games I have waiting to be played on my 360 - physical, DLC and Games with Gold.
64
I had to put them in a spreadsheet and use a RANDBETWEEN calculation to pick a game.
It landed on #52 - Sniper Elite 2.
Man alive, it's a gory game! If you target someone with the "bullet time" mode, the camera slows down, tracks the bullet and then shows you an X-Ray of where the bullet goes in and various skulls, ribs, spleens, hearts and giblets get blasted out.
In the first two levels, I got achievements for shooting lots of people, shooting somebody through the eye and for getting two headshots with one bullet.
I've kinda got the idea after two levels and I'm frustrated by being unable to climb through open windows because the game doesn't want me to go that way. Is it worth persevering with? Are there any environments more varied than bombed cities?
I have a plethora of better games to play.
I think I'm going to become a Strictly widow starting from Saturday...

QualityChimp - I had to do something similar a few months ago, prompted by the True Trophies web site, called a 'Bean Dive.'
Aim of the Bean Dive was that you had a month to start as many of your unplayed games as you wanted to, registering no more than five trophies (and, ideally, only one) before the month ran out. From there, you have a year to get your overall trophy completion percentage back to what it was before you killed it by doing said Bean Dive.
I stopped at 23 games, having reduced my overall completion percentage from 64% to 41%!
Of course, these figures don't include games you've already started, which can still be used to up your stats.
It's strangely compelling - and has forced me to play fantastic games that have sat on my HDD unplayed. It's even enabled me to not buy anything for a few months, therefore waiting for the likes of Mad Max, MGS5, Until Dawn and Tearaway to drop in price at some point before Xmas.
I've got Sniper Elite 3 on my list to play - I'm pretty sure there's a trophy in that for shooting someone in the unmentionables.......

Thanks [MENTION=1129]TonyDA[/MENTION]!
I'm on True Achievements, so I might do that next year (it's closed for 2015), even though Bean Dive sounds like either a hipster coffee shop or a rude sexual manoeuvre...
Whilst trying to find which of my games are shortest, I stumbled across http://howlongtobeat.com/.
Sniper Elite takes around 7 hours to complete the story, but up to 22 hours for a completionist: http://howlongtobeat.com/game.php?id=8679
I might sign up and input that shamefully long list, but I don't want to fall in to the trap of feeling I have to complete games that aren't much fun OR abandoning games I'm enjoying, just because of the avalanche of other games to play.
I might have to start The 12 Games of (Before) Christmas thread a few months early this year!
