Do You Have to Finish One Game Before Starting Another One?

**PotofAwesome** · 04-15-12

Me, I play a lot of games at the same time. This is why I haven't finished a lot of them. But I know some people who absolutely won't start a new game until they finish the one they are currently playing.
What about you? Are you a gaming multi-tasker, or do you take it one game at a time?

I'm always switching between games, I can usually finish them around the same time.

I only play one console game and one handheld game at a time. So, I limit it to 2 I guess.

This usually means I end up having a backlog of games waiting for me to play them! xD

It really all depends on the game itself. If it's really interesting, then I'll continue playing it before touching another game. Otherwise I'll just set it aside and play some other games til I gain interest again...which is usually a month.

Not really, I can get bored quite quickly, I have like 5 games I am claiming to be playing through right now, but I always end up playing something else.

Lol, same here I started playing 2 games at a time: one console game and one handheld game because if I play to many at a time I barely ever finish them. This will help me finish all my games :) but I also play my stimulation games as well like nintendogs and harvest moon I play those daily.

I have a bad habit of starting a game and when I get a new one I forget all about the one I was playing so using this method will help me complete all my games. Also I started using this site " The Backloggery " which helps you keep track of games that you have to complete, completed, or currently playing :)

The games I am currently playing now are Resident Evil: Revelations and Zelda Skyward Sword :) along with my stimulation games

I'm a multi game juggler. I'll usually play 1-3 games that day and rotate to the next set. Its somewhat the same with how I watch anime.

YA-HA!!!

I didn't do this when I was little, but now I really try to finish a game up before going to another.
1 on Handheld, 1 on Console.

Maybe it wouldn't be a bad idea if I did that, so I wouldn't have so many unfinished (or even unstarted) games.

However, I almost never play a single game for really long periods, so I usually have 5-6 games I'm playing at the same time, and several others I play on a regular basis (like CoD and 007 games, or puzzles)
