Wholeheartedly agree with you on this one. That "new" feeling is a massive craving, but then there is the absorbed feeling when you find a really good "hour sink" game. It's much worse coming out of that and not knowing what to do next.

I went through this a bit when I first started with steam sales about 6-7 years ago, doesn't happen to me anymore.

Fist4achin2699d ago

I have a huge backlog myself, but I am constantly chipping away at it. I usually don't buy too many games full price unless I want to show support for developers or it looks to be that good and I want to play it right away.

There are some moments though where I look at my catalog and can't decide what to play and then take a month off from playing anything at all.

All in all, I do love gaming and I relish those games that really do suck me in and keep me thinking about it until I am able to play it again. I think we all can get into an occasional funk and that's ok.

Stop GAME shaming ME! /s

I don't fall into this category really which my friends assume I do with a library of over 500 games on steam. Rarely are they new releases and most were acquired through a bundle. I do have a nice backlog and I guess I'm more prone to buying something new rather than play one of the old games I bought but haven't touched yet, but in the end I slip back into the game I feel most comfortable with at the time.

I will likely never have the time to play half my games, and I am okay with that. No shame felt here.

Sony just needs to up its resolution and framerate and it'll be quite the service, still don't like streaming though so doesn't really matter to me.

SpaceRanger1538d ago

Why is Xbox GamePass on this? Not a streaming service.

CaptainCook1537d ago

Xcloud will be included with Xbox Game Pass this year

RazzerRedux1537d ago

And they announced that.....when?

CaptainCook1537d ago (Edited 1537d ago )

@RazzerRedus
Here's the link from the engineers themselves talking about Xcloud at Xbox London Event 2019.

"There's 2 things.. We are going to give you the games you own from the cloud or the games you've purchased in the future, and we will bring Game streaming to Xbox Game Pass so you are Free to discover and play anywhere and everywhere"

SpaceRanger1537d ago

Once again, why is Xbox GamePass on this? Your comment only further proves my point.

RazzerRedux1537d ago

@CaptainCook

Thanks. I missed that announcement obviously.

Neither is Uplay or Origin. "Journalism"

2pacalypsenow1538d ago (Edited 1538d ago )

The only game streaming services are PS Now, Stadia and GeForce Now.

Xbox Game pass, Uplay plus and Origin aren’t streaming.

Exvalos1540d ago

Omfg lmao!!!!! Never a more perfect time to say that

badz1491540d ago

Father__Merrin1540d ago

these cretins are all over ebay you search for a game key and something cheap comes up once you click on the post its actually not a game key but rather access to a account. theres no option on ebay to report them

arkard1540d ago (Edited 1540d ago )

Should be, what does not participate in digital sales (unless something changed im unaware of) so a sale like that is against there terms and conditions

I was wrong, they do allow digital items now.
https://www.ebay.com/help/p...

But I checked and there is still a reporting tool on the mobile website at least. You have to scroll pretty far down to get to it though

nucky641540d ago

not sure about that. i used to sell digital codes from blu ray movies i bought. i never used them so it seemed like a waste. i usually put them up for sale for a third of what the entire movie package cost me. the last time i tried to do this (around 2 months ago) i get message that trying to sell digital copies isn't allowed.

nucky641540d ago

so true. i was always curious as to how people were allowed to do that. now i know - they aren't supposed to.

Cyb3r1540d ago

Some websites sell accounts too Im surprised that noting is being done about this

JackBNimble1540d ago

And they're all stolen accounts

1540d ago
JackBNimble1540d ago

Why are they calling this trading accounts, this is plain and simply stealing.
