2015 - The Year of Games I Bought but Never Finished
By Hardtarget 25 Comments
So! Near the end of last year I had a baby. Those first few months, although hard, did still allow me some super late night gaming sessions. Sadly 2015 has been a different story, the baby has needed a lot more attention (I was even off work for 4 months taking care of the baby 24/7 while my wife worked and I hardly had time to play anything!).
Sadly I have a problem and keep buying new games that look fun while not finishing old games. It's a hard problem to break because video games!
So for my reference, and yours!, here's a list of seemingly fun games that I have not finished (maybe one day). They should be ordered by release date. I'm probably forgetting stuff too (The Expansion to Civ: Beyond Earth comes to mind)
 | January 27th (Maybe halfway throughish?) |
 | Remastered! January 27th (Thankfully I at least played this to completion when I was younger) |
 | 3. Game of Thrones: A Telltale Game Series I've only played Episode 1, Episode 2 came out February 3rd and I've not played it or any afterwards |
 | 4. Homeworld Remastered Collection February 25th (Again, thankfully I at least played these when I was younger) |
 | March 10th (I have put some time into this and it can't really be 'finished' but I have not played it nearly enough. Oh also at some point I bought the After Dark expansion) |
 | March 17th (I've played the first single player mission and not even launched the multiplayer. whoops...) |
 | Similar to Game of Thrones, Episode 2 came out March 17th, the difference here? I've not even played Episode 1 yet... |
 | March 26th (I've only played act 1! Also... I bought the expansion pass) |
 | April 7th (Maybe halfway done the campaign) |
 | 10. Assassin's Creed Chronicles: China April 21st (Played the first level, luckily got this for free since I had the gold edition of Unity, a game I have also not played...) |
 | Part 2 April 28th (I haven't even played part 1 yet...) |
 | May 19th (Not even close to finishing) |
 | 13. Puzzle & Dragons Z + Puzzle & Dragons: Super Mario Bros. Edition May 22nd (Hardly played at all, seems fun!) |
 | June 1st (Maybe played 1/3rd of the way through 1 bloodline... I even backed this on kickstarter, oh god) |
 | June 30th (Stupid Vinny quicklooks! This game is fun but I've only played a few levels) |
 | July 7th (Barely played) |
 | June 14th (Hardly touched!) |
 | August 25th (Not even finished 1 season!) |
 | August 27th (Only played the first area of missions!) |
 | September 1st (Played like... 2 hours) |
 | 21. Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain September 1st (Put tons of hours in, not even close to finishing) |
 | September 15th (I'm a huge Forza guy but have barely done any races in this one) |
 | September 15th (played literally 1 online match) |
 | October 20th (Not played this nearly enough) |
 | 25. Assassin's Creed Syndicate October 23rd (This really grabbed my attention for some reason, saw it on sale at Costco for XBONE and grabbed it, I should have just waited and got it cheap on PC down the line, ugh) |
 | October 27th (I have literally not touched this, at all) |
 | November 10th (Not even close to finishing) |
 | December 1st (Playing it right now? Oh god what is wrong with me) |
 | June 23rd BONUS: THE ONE GAME I ACTUALLY FINISHED IN 2015, ALSO SOMEHOW IT WAS THE BROKEN PC PORT BUT I POWERED THROUGH ON RELEASE. |
Has this kind of thing ever happened to you guys? Looking at this list, man it's a real problem. I need to stop buying things and just finish what I have, but there is always something new on the horizon that looks fun and cool! (I have to come to grips with the fact that I just don't have the gaming time like I used to and not want to play EVERYTHING)
