Pile of Shame

by brad

One of the (relative) downsides of covering games for a living is only having a finite amount of time to play games, and often having to play a bunch of games you'd rather not mess with. A consequence of this responsibility is lacking the time to play all the games you do want to play; I've got a sizable stack of games in my house I've always wanted to at least try but somehow never got around to. Here are some of the most embarrassing examples. 
 

UPDATE: COMPLETED

 
Here I'll list games that were formerly on this list and then done got played. 
 
Batman: Arkham Asylum 
Brilliant blend of game mechanics, great version of Batman, incredible visuals, addictive collectibles... what a game. 
 
Fallout 3 
HOLY CRAP CAN'T STOP PLAYING THIS. I might actually get the S-rank, including all the DLC. Damn.

Fable II

1. Fable II

Still exploiting Pub Games in anticipation of buying up all of Bowerstone. Isn't that what it's called? Shows you how much I've played of Fable II.

Psychonauts

2. Psychonauts

Seems like one of those games I should just turn in my credentials for not playing.

Katamari Damacy

3. Katamari Damacy

Picked this up for I think $20 after it had been out for a good long while. Probably won't ever touch it at this point, considering I have a copy of Katamari Forever at my disposal.

Super Mario Galaxy

4. Super Mario Galaxy

Bought this at full price the week it came out; still haven't gotten around to buying a Wii. I generally hate and avoid using this expression, but, FAIL.

Avatar: The Last Airbender - The Burning Earth

5. Avatar: The Last Airbender - The Burning Earth

Considering I shamelessly did the deed with Fallout 3 PC's console commands, I should probably just GameFly this and get the 1,000 points already.
