No Game New Year: Game Backlog

Hi there.

This week, I've been playing more Gotham City Impostors and Streets of Rage II. I haven't really got time to write a full review of what I've been doing as I'm about to go on holiday, however last night I saw a post from Cassandra Brabon mentioning a Kotaku article about managing and playing your way through games more efficiently. The article did suggest some good ways to organise your play-throughs, though it is a little presumptuous about how long it will take to play through most games. It fails to take into account the fact that I suck. Nonetheless, after reading this, I decided to compile a list of my games to check my progress on them, and I thought I'd share it with you today.

So, there are 3 things I'm looking for (my list, my rules):

1. Whether or not I've played the game, because I'm always horribly astonished when I count the games I own and never actually played.
2. Whether or not I've completed the game, that is to say got to the end credits. Where N/A appears here it is because it is not a game you "complete" in the usual sense, usually either because it's a puzzle game that goes on indefinitely or it's a multiplayer-only game with no single-player campaign.
3. Whether or not I've got all the achievement points, which is the point at which I decide I don't need to own the game any longer. Where N/A appears here it is because the game does not use achievement points.

Also, please be aware that this list refers only to the Xbox 360. I have yet to compile similar lists for the Xbox (original,) Playstation 2, Playstation 1, Nintendo DS and Gameboy Advance. That will take me a lot longer.
