There's always something else for sure. I've just finished getting those games that I have some irrational fear they will disappear forever.

I've only got Ratchet & Clank Into the Nexus that I have to have day one this holiday. I want to play Assassin's Creed IV and Batman Origins badly, but I don't feel the need to get them day-one for some reason.

I played the demo for the first one and felt there was so much going on on screen that I couldn't see the fighting. However, I love zany crazy games like this, and the more I hear about it, the more I want to see it in action. 

I'm looking forward to this. I love DKC!

I'm looking ahead to several games but only the ones that I really, really want. I know that feeling when I think about a game and I get all reved up. Other games are interesting to me and I want to play them, but others take it to the next level. Those are the ones I'm focusing on. It's a manageable number of games. The best of the best in my humble opinion.

It can be good to have some barriers to getting new games. You value the ones you have and obsess over them less. I can always pick up an under $10 game any day of the week at one of a dozen Gamestops in my area. It makes me a little crazy.

    I totally remember doing this mad buying at the end of last gen too. As 360 and PS3 came out, I was scouring Gamestops for Xbox, PS2 and Gamecube titles on their buy2get1free sale every week, or sometimes every few days.

I got into this list thing because I got obsessed with Allgame.com's database. I would spend hours scanning through their lists and then make my own. It got overwelming, so many interesting titles from every era of gaming, so I started rating them ala Netflix to make sense of it all.

I know what you mean. I still have a humongous list of stuff, and I keep adding to it, but I've gotten the really important games. I feel I can go about buying stuff with less urgency now.

Sony might beat Microsoft this time. I casually looked around for PS4 preorders and they were all sold out at many retailers; Xbox One though? No problem. Of course Sony could be holding back on supply to make it seem that way, so who knows really.

I'm getting myself a seat to watch the crazy-go-nuts buying public this November. Who's going to win this battle of the consoles: Sony or Microsoft. Or will Nintendo come out of nowhere and sell out the Wii-U for Christmas for no apparent reason? I'm getting some carmel corn and a coffee and enjoy the show.
