A lot, way too many to think about trying to list. Especially if including Steam and stuff I got in big sales/bundles.

I suppose I'm stingy, but I don't usually buy a game that I'll keep in the backlog of games to play. If I buy it; I'll play it. Usually that means I'll play it until the end, because I bought it knowing that I would want to see it until the end.

Most of the games I've gotten that end up unfinished or unplayed are things that have come free, or extremely inexpensive, but aren't ones I'd necessarily have picked up otherwise. So PSN titles, Humble Bundles, Epic Game Store free weekly games, etc.
Sometimes I'll also pick up a game I'm interested in, but don't necessarily have time for if it is deeply discounted ($5-10) and then don't get around to it for a year or two though. Last one I bought (discounted) and actually stopped playing was Sakura Wars (2019), which I mentioned in the "What are you playing?" thread.

Hey, looking back at my 2016 post I can see that I finished all the games mentioned!
While my backlog is still noticeable, I rarely abandon games that I already started and I also have been buying less games overall - I've already passed on many Steam sales in a couple of years due to already having so much good stuff to play. I'm passing even on free games due to knowing I won't play them. From all those free offers on Epic Store, I only ever got GTA V, which, interestingly, is one of the rare few that I never finished.
By the end of this year I'll have gone through most of my unplayed Steam games, at least the major ones. I'll also work my way through a couple of still unbeaten DS/3DS games, as I finally replaced my 3DS, and then finish a few more japanese Saturn games. My Xbox/360 library is fully beaten right now.
Right now, the only new games that I'm really interested in buying are around 6 Switch exclusives (Bayonetta, Astral Chain and Zeldas), as I'm strongly thinking about getting the console. While my Steam wishlist also has some nice picks, I'm not in a hurry to buy them.

- Resident Evil 2 Remake
- All the Yakuza games
- All the Metal Gear games
And I'm pretty sure many others I can't remember too.
Some I have played, but haven't got that far, some I haven't even touched.
Many of those I got through PlayStation Plus, but I still would like to go through them.
So yeah, I have a huge backlog still.

I know right. I started them, even Origins, but I didn't get far at all. They are definitely on my must do list.
