Too many games....

There are so many great games I missed out on over the past few years....I'm trying to get caught up this summer; but man....there are only so many hours in a day, and I find when I try to play multiple games at once one of them eventually wins out all of my attention and I never go back to play the others. :/

I was playing the heck out of Persona 3, while playing some Trauma Center 2 as well, but then I started playing Odin Sphere and abandoned the others. I don't see myself finishing Persona 3 any time soon, so it's pretty much shelved. I also don't see myself playing much Trauma Center 2 anymore either.

A few days ago I started playing Jeanne D'Arc again, and haven't played Odin Sphere again. Infuriating! I really love Jeanne D'Arc and Odin Sphere, but so far Jeanne is a total time sink for me. The hours just fly by when I'm playing.

As if this weren't enough, all the news from E3 has me all excited about new games coming out and I find myself wanting to play previous games from the respective series. For example: Star Ocean. I also played the new demo for Tales of Vesperia, which totally got me excited and wanting to play other Tales games. I also fooled around with the Too Human demo, which is in a league of it's own, but reminded me of three other games I have yet to play / finish. First is Mass Effect, which I started playing when it came out but never finished. Second is Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth, which looks awesome. Finally, I was reminded of Valkyrie Profile 2, which also looks awesome.

Oh yeah, speaking of Jeanne D' Arc; I was reminded of two other games I have yet to play by the same developer Level 5. (who I love) Rogue Galaxy and Dragon Quest VIII. Jeez! Just look at all these games I need to play! Let's recap:

  • Persona 3 (Started playing, didn't finish....probably won't for a while)
  • Trauma Center 2 (Almost done....not much desire to finish it right now.....*sigh*)
  • Odin Sphere (Started playing....hopefully I will finish it at some point...)
  • Jeanne D'Arc (Start playing, looks the most likely for me to finish right now.)
  • Star Ocean: Till The End of Time (Want to play)
  • Tales of.... (So many tales games to play....I loved Tales of Symphonia)
  • Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth (Need to play....probably will after Rogue Galaxy)
  • Valkyrie Profile 2 (Need to play)
  • Rogue Galaxy (Need to play...probably the next game on the list)
  • Dragon Quest VIII (Want to play)

Man! Crazy! This list only includes old games that I haven't played, so it isn't including the newer ones. Stuff like Crisis Core, FFT War of the Lions, Eternal Sonata, Ninja Gaiden 2, NiGHTS, and Okami. (Wii) I've updated my Wish List at GameSpot with all the games I continue to update it and my Now Playing list as I finish games / start playing new ones.

Oh yeah, I also bought Resident Evil 4 a while ago and played it a bit. I need to finish it as well...but I have until next March to do that.


I don't really know why I'm even taking the time to type this....I have a ton of games to be playing.
