Shameageddon 2014: The Chagrinening

Time to bring this back, because it did such a wonderful job last year of helping me keep my gaming priorities straight. Sarcasm. That'll be the theme for 2014.

So now we start 2014 proper, I've reorganized the list to include every major item in my backlog and - for the sake of my sanity - I'm only including games I own. There's still a lot, but then I'm expecting to fill most of January and February with this business. Beaten games get moved to the bottom, with their completion date.

(Apparently this list is the top Google result for "Shameageddon" and "Chagrinening". Two very real words which I can only assume are used a lot on the internet. I'm dumbfounded.)
