Pile of Shame

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.

List items

• 

  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.

• 

  2. Psychonauts

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

• 

  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.

• 

  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.

  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.
