So many games, so little time! (need advice)

I can't completely agree that it is irrelevant. People like different games, and you and Jaxel may have different tastes, but determining a pecking order maybe something you really want to think about. You don't have to listen to our advice there, but it can help.

30 hours in a year, explain that to me. I can't really solve the problem unless I know what is actually causing it.
 
It's simple: either pick one game and stick with it until you beat it or make a schedule of the games you want to play and when you want to play them and stick with it. If you can't do either, then you will be stuck in the same situation you are in now asking for advise.

No, our interests are a moot point in this conversation. I'm not here to ask for what other peoples' interests are. Putting that aside, you could still answer the question by placing yourself in my position with your own interests.

So yeah, putting our interests aside, is there a solution to this madness? I believe Malice has the most constructive post yet, but I've tried forming a schedule and that didn't work unfortunately, lol. As for why it took a year to get 30 hours in, that was simply because I kept getting distracted by other games.
 
ok, i finished like 95% of all available ps2 rpgs and i had the same problems. work, girlfriend, drinking and real life issues prevented me from playing as much as i like.

solutions: as Malice said make some kind of schedule. what you need is time and you should keep playing on a regular basis. like after work take two hours to play games every time it's possible, then do everything else. dedicate specific days off only to gaming. stick with one game until it's finished. if you have more than one you wanna play, start with the oldest one, in order to prepare for the more recent games. try that!
 
Thanks Jay. I'm working through Wild Arms: Alter Code F at the moment. I've been pretty consistent with it lately, so I'll stick with it until it is finished, then start something else. I feel a little silly playing some of these though, lol.

For example, I've already played the original Wild Arms, so going through Alter Code F is like playing the original, only with better graphics and a couple of extra features. I also have Star Ocean: Second Departure for PSP I want to get around to playing, but I've already played through Star Ocean: The Second Story :/

It just kind of feels like I should be spending my time on games I HAVEN'T played before the ones I have played, lol. It's just so hard to peel myself away from these remakes though. It makes me feel nostalgic and I like seeing all the new stuff they add, comparing it to the original.
