I can't *believe* these lazy developers keep making file sizes so damn large. Btw, how does technology work?
DO YOU HAVE A HUGE BACKLOG?!
DO YOU HAVE GAMES SITTING ON YOUR SHELF, JUST COLLECTING DUST?
Why... why don't you play your video games? God knows you spend months - no, years - hyping that next game to high heaven, only to play for an hour and then decide to hop on GAF and start hyping the next game on your wish list.
What are your reasons?
- Spending too much time browsing GAF, instead?
- Enjoy hyping games more than actually playing them?
- Not willing to deal with all those bugs and glitches pre-patch?
- Got tricked by the bullshots?
- The online was broken last time you played? Unbalanced, maybe?
- Got stuck on an especially difficult section, and shelved it?
- Bought the game cheap, even though you never actually intended to play it?
- It's just sitting on the shelf, still sealed?
... ALL OF THE ABOVE?

Well then get off your ass, and go sit on your ass. Think about the games that you really do want to play at some point, but just haven't yet. Think a bit longer. A little bit longer.... .... NOW NAME ONE! Share that game here - explain why you bought it, why you're not currently playing, and why you think it's a good title to be the next one you play!
... Then, actually play it. Play it right now. No excuses. And in the next 24 hours, come back and share your impressions. Was it good? Was it shit? Did you spend an hour installing updates? Do you think it's worth playing some more... decide if you want to play it some more. If not, NAME ANOTHER GAME.
Here, we'll give those that don't come back and give their impressions a hard time for not being able to deliver. We'll also share our games and our stories. And maybe, just maybe, you'll find someone's experience to be worth pushing you over the edge to try the same game.

I'll start: I'm going to play GTAV on PC. Here's the problem; I played it on PS3 for a while, but holy shit did the framerate and jaggies destroy my enjoyment. I got about six hours or so into the story, but couldn't really press on with other games stealing my time. So, then I bought it on the Xbox One - now it finally ran decently. I played for about 10 hours, and then decided to wait for the PC version. FINALLY, the PC version came out: 1080p @ 60fps with all the options maxed out. I really love this game - but after playing the first 5 hours of the story for a THIRD time, I couldn't push on. I grew bored. There's so much to do, and so much to explore; I loved the characters, the music, the story. Everything is just great - so why is it just sitting in my Steam Library not being touched? This could easily be one of my favorite games ever - but it's not going to be if I don't play it.
