I have the same problem, too many games and just not enough time to play them all. I'm usually playing about 3 at any given time.

Same here. Between making games myself and looking after two little ones, my game time is down to maybe 2 hours a week when everyone is in bed. Haven't even put in Uncharted 3 or Batman-AC yet. PSN+ is just adding to the list as well. There were a bunch of titles I wanted to play that I simply had no time for, like Just Cause 2 and Infamous 2 that I couldn't help but download once they went free on PSN+. Now they sit on my harddrive. Waiting for someone to show them some love. :)

Same here. I've got a pile of about 25 games (just this gen) that I keep meaning to get back to. I'll finish Final Fantasy XIII eventually. :P

The biggest contributor to my backlog is definitely the seasonal Steam sales. My PC backlog currently looks like this:

Alan Wake
Alan Wake's American Nightmare
Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY Edition
Batman: Arkham City
Darksiders
Dead Space
Deus Ex: Human Revolution
From Dust
Just Cause 2
Legend of Grimrock
Limbo
Trine
Trine 2
Two Worlds II
The Witcher 2

Those are the games that I have barely touched. There are probably 20+ more that are in various states of completion.

With so much available to me, and the means to legitimately acquire pretty much whatever I want, I find it very difficult to stick with a game for very long before moving on to something new. I call it "Gamer ADD".

My strategy is to dedicate my gaming time to one game and focus all of my attention on beating it.

EKWB reportedly plagued with financial disarray many gaming pc's left without parts

EK Cooling allegedly has slipped itself into a hot soup of seemingly endless financial woes, where it has not paid its staff, suppliers, and contractors for many months as the company is facing liquidity problems and a surplus of inventory left unsold, stuck in the warehouse for a more extended period. Gamers Nexus investigated these claims made by former and current personnel, where he found trails of unpaid bills lasting as long as three to four months and unpaid raises that accumulated for almost a year.

EK Water Blocks has two entities—a Slovenian-based headquarters and a US-based subsidiary, EK Cooling Solutions. Steve narrated the series of events in detail, stating that the company was reportedly irresponsible and negligent regarding payment. Consequently, partners and employees are forced to share the burden of alleged mismanagement. It all begins with its extensive range of products, leading to a surplus of goods. EK has over 230 water blocks, 40 liquid cooling kits, 85 reservoirs, 40 pumps, 73 radiators, and 212 miscellaneous accessories.

Yes this is not about video games directly but indirectly this will impact the pc gaming/workstation space hard.

This company is massive one of two in the water cool space so if it goes poof then thousands out there have no spare parts or half built computers.

SO yeah i know not about a video game but think of it as amd leaving the pc space but this is ekwb that could be leaving water cooling in the pc space

Jayz2cents a supporter of there products also has issues

As someone that has built a watercooling rig. EK is big, but there's so many numerous watercooling part companies out there. EK's stuff isn't exactly amazing quality for the price compared to others either, it's just ok. Much like Corsair. The impact would be negligible long term. For perspective the majority of my parts are XSPC, at most I use EK for my gpu waterblocks and fittings. Both easily replaceable.
