fukk yo backlog

[MeachTheMonster]

Tired of hearing people talk about their backlog as if it means anything.

fukk outa here, those are called OLD GAMES, they belong in walmart discount bins, not in discussions about new hotness.

Why you mad?

 

[storyteller]

I jumped the gun on GTA with a pre-order and decided never again after that disappointment. If it's not an RPG, I'll wait for the discount bin pricing.

 

[MeachTheMonster]

Why you mad?

Cause I don't have a backlog

Then you don't own enough games/systems! Here are some games I want to finish in 2014 http://darkadia.com/member/KodeAndGame/library#!/shelf/unfinished/tag-386

Yeah I do. I own enough to fill my own playtime. No reason to worry about games I know I don't have time to play, just so I can say their in my "backlog"

Hell I'm still playing X1 launch games trying to finish before TitanFall

Backlog = a broke nikkas come up, I can't afford new games so I'm playing through all the old ones like a boss
Playing through ninja gaiden black, GTA V, Splinter Cell Chaos Theory and the Puppeteer

I'm just saying you over there playing 6s and 7s when there are plenty of 9s and 10s out there you've never played

You talking about all those indie/iphone games?

Naw I'll pass

We all know PC indies aren't scrutinized as much as their AAA counterparts. Metacritic scores is hardly a good metric for comparison.

I disagree. One of the of the reasons cats like us have extensive backlogs is due to having enough money to buy more games at a time than we have the time to afford to play them.

I'm not specifying anything you're not playing. The fact that you're limiting yourself to basically 360 and Bone tell me you're missing out on a ton, indie or otherwise. And I'm not going by metacritic either. I just think if the highlights of your gaming playtime are Rayman and Strider (which are good games no doubt), then you doing something wrong.

I rather disagree with this though homie. Gamers have very varied tastes and preferences, let lone time schedules for what games they may or may not be playing. Some cats gaming highlights are the CODs, Maddens, Marios, Halos, GTA's, some others SFIV, Mahvel, DKC, Spelunky, etc. I mean, whatever game you may choose to play whenever you choose to play them would most likely be your highlight at that moment, am I right?

Had a ps3 and wii as well.

And yes strider and Rayman are two highlights RIGHT NOW. I'm sure there's some obscure indie or wii u game you can pull out of your backlog that makes you feel better. But as I said in the op, those games belong in bargain bins, not in conversations about new games.

And the fact that you don't have a Xbox one tells me you are missing out on a ton

See how silly an assertion that is^^^^^^^^^

Kodie is not immune to the pitfalls of the fanboy

 

[chemicalsword]

at what point should an "old" game no longer be allowed in the conversation with "new" games? 2 months? 6 months?
your new games can't hold a flame to other's back log? is that the reason for your frustration??

I'm very distinctly not pulling out any game for comparison. I really don't have to. You're also talking about 3 completely different categories. Indie, Wii U and then not new games. Those three things aren't the same are they? Even Rayman has already been a heavily discounted game so that's basically bargain bin (which says nothing of it's quality). You also don't dictate rules about what games can be talked about in conjunction with other games
