    Coming soon : as my girlfriend is currently spending one day per weekend in college, that means I have some serious uninterrupted gaming time ahead of me.

    So, what I'll be doing is playing one game for one hour, before moving on to the next and doing this for the day. This will give me opportunity to play all my purchases and post what I thought of each one. Before having my opinions questioned. One day, one game, one hour.

    Depends what games they are. If they're anything other than a platformer/arcade style one, you're better off doing the complete opposite of that (What I've been doing for the last few years)

    Pick one game and play it through start to finish without letting another steal your attention.

    You'll still get through everything, but you'll actually complete games rather than leave a load of half finished ones about :)

    You've definitely a good point there. The purpose of me doing that, I suppose, was to a) let me see which games I'll play through to completion and which I'm very hit and miss about, and b) for any fellow newcomers to see which games I'm playing and to see if they may want to pick up a copy for themselves.

    I echo o1s1n's advice except the part where it falls apart when you have a love of long ass RPG games :(
