I still say 6% completion ratio over 100 or so owned games > 60% completion ratio over like 5 games.

Joe, I love your Gaming ADD™, but let's be honest here. You dabble in games. You've played 101 Xbox games while I've played 19.

I get that you're not a completionist like I am. It doesn't bother me except in rare cases like when we're playing an MMORPG together and I can't get you to focus on that game enough to be successful with us. Most of the time, it's just cute to see you bounce from one game to another.

Hell, you've had more exposure to games than I have by a wide margin. Who do I call when I need "what to buy" advice? You, duh. You've had a larger variety of experience than anyone I know. :-P

The first step is admitting it. Frankly I can't play crap games for more than 20 minutes. And it's no fun to waste 20-50 bucks on that.

A spreadsheet for your achievements? Oh my god.



I think Joe and I might have the same problem. When a new game comes out that I HAVE to have, I play it for about an hour and move on to whatever it was I was playing before. I have about 10 games that I havent even taken the plastic off of yet.

So? I bounce between games. My major problem is I rent a lot of games. From my Achievements it's easy to see which games I own and which I've rented...
