Games I Need to Fucking Finish Already
We all do it.
Buy a game, excited to see what it has to offer. Bury ourselves in the first hours, having a great time, admiring the story, the new and interesting mechanics, or sometimes even just the nostalgic place in our brains that a game managed to tweak.
Then you have to go back to work on Monday. Your wife (or girlfriend, or boyfriend, or hell, Mom) needs you to head out somewhere on Tuesday night, then there's a basketball game on Wednesday. Friday, you're heading to a movie, or to the bar. Saturday, you head out of town to go golfing or get caught up in cleaning or yardwork.
Or, most insidiously, that new game you've been excited for since three E3s ago finally hits shelves, and that last big thing falls by the wayside.
This is a role call for all of the neglected software sitting around my game shelves right now, or piled next to the TV, deliberately placed in my line of sight to make me feel sorry for it and pop it back in.
I'll finish all of these. Someday.
