What are the top priorities in your backlog stack?

Maybe just play the games instead of going online as much?

Wish I could. My career has me traveling out of the country quite a bit. I don't have access to anything but my Vita for a while. Still, I find I get distracted a lot when I am home.

I have quite a few games that I haven't properly played yet and are on my list to get into. The problem is like everyone else, I work full time and have responsibilities etc. A lot of my games I need to play are for my PS3, which some will know I only bought earlier this year.

1. Mass Effect 2 (PS3) - Everyone says the series is amazing.
2. Eternal Sonata (PS3) - I wanted a good RPG to get my teeth into. Still haven't played for more than an hour.
3. Dragon Age (PS3) - Haven't played yet, beyond the first 15 minutes
4. Secret of Mana (SNES) - Played for about an hour or 2 ages ago. Seemed really good, but haven't played since.
5. Super Metroid (SNES) - Only just got this and really enjoy it so far. Need to keep it up.
6. Yoshi's Island (SNES) - See above
7. Child of Eden (PS3) - Like Rez? Why have I not played this more yet??
8. Fallout 3 (PS3) - So hard to get into. Every once in a while I play for aout an hour or so, get into it, then leave it for weeks/months.
9. Napple Tale (Dreamcast) - Played this once, never played it again.
10. Phantasy Star IV (Megadrive) - Awesome RPG and I've never even come close to completing it. What the hell?

Most here do (look at all the backloggery sigs here).

For me... I don't know. I just cycle through my stuff till something really catches me. Arkham City has really gripped me and to a lesser extent Age of Empires 2.

By far the biggest problem for me right now is time. 50 hour work weeks.

I'm also playing Age of Empires II! Nice soundtrack, eh? All I'm doing this summer is boxing and playing strategy games. It's a painful combination. Heavy bag makes my wrists sore.

I just play whatever I feel like. Sometimes I find a game for a dollar and don't play it for six more months. If I seek out a game I want online, I usually play it right away. But I don't worry about my "to do" list. Since I like a variety of games and I don't know what I'll feel like when I'm done, I just enjoy them as they come.
