Do you guys keep a list of all the games you've beaten?
I do, in an office document and I'm very anal about it. After I finish each game, I wrote it in.
Through out the years, I've had many lists. Physical ones. But about a few years ago I started with keeping a list on my pc in a digital form.
I have 3 copies, and I update all 3 once I finish a game. One is on my pc, one on a usb stick and the other on google drive, up in dem clouds.
So I'll share my list with you. I lost my physical list at one point so keep in mind that the list gets chronological somewhere around 100 or so. I can't vouch for chronological order before that number.
So here's my list. All the games I finished.

 

[Heimdall_Xtreme]

You are the first person that i see do that

 

[DESTROYA]

Not really , I don’t have to document all my fun time. Just seems a little excessive .

52 Games - 1 Year Challenge

Well done corrosivefrost! Congratulations, corrosive, too! Yeah, August is really bringing 'em in. May be worth tracking the counts per month going forward. Could be interesting.

Amazing you have Gravity Rush 1 and 2 in the list!!!

Amazing games, both of em.

 

[spawn]

I actually do the opposite. I have a list of games that I want to play, but haven’t had the time

 

[Mistershine.]

I don't keep track but I've been gaming since the early 80s and know I completed over 100 games on the spectrum alone, then there's all of the systems since so I guessed at more than 300.

OP facilitating old stereo types of gamers being socially awkward knobs.
Thanks for that.

 

[Humdinger]

I used to do that with the books I read, but I've never done it with games. If I need a list of what I've played, I think you can just look somewhere in the consoles' files and find it. (edit: Now that I think about it, that would just give you a list of games you've played, not necessarily finished.)

 

[Virex]

I swear. It's like everyone in GAF is being used for free research

How is keeping a list being socially awkward knob?

Because I'm embarrassed for you just reading about this list.

Deep.

Seems pointless. No one actually cares what games you complete, other than you (that is not meant to be read as either condescending or as an insult; just a statement of fact). It would be the same as if you tracked what movies you have seen or tv shows you have watched.

Who cares what people say, is free to do what they want.

I even think it's a good idea.

 

[BigBooper]

No, I just tag games as completed once I finish em.

 

[Northeastmonk]

It’s a nice pick-me-up. I kept a running tally for a year or two. I wrote a page worth and then just stopped. It was cool to run a tally and then I just started to do it mentally. I sometimes run a tally of what I completed. A thing that I liked was posting screenshots to Facebook from PSN and from my Switch. The PS4 Facebook integration went away though. I liked being reminded of a game I played or finished, like an anniversary or something.

 

[MDSLKTR]

That and a backlog list, and I rate games once finished. It's on a excel sheet so it looks like I'm working.

what’s pretty cool is GOG Galaxy links my other accounts (Steam, PSN, etc) and kinda, for the most part, keeps track of everything like this. Shocked me seeing actually how many hours I game a month. GOGG won’t read every service’s achievement tracking but gets a lot of them, on top of hours played

I thought about that but somehow I feel this is a better solution. If I see how many hours I've put into something, I'd probably be shocked.
Tbh, I don't even know why I keep a list. This is the first time I've shown it to anybody. But somehow, the list is important to me and I keep updating it.

 

[Armorian]

I started to use this site few months ago https://myvideogamelist.com/

 

[LOLCats]

One of the reasons I like trophies, keeps a record of your games played.

on a side note, i bet OP grocery shops with a list.

 

[TUROK]

I keep a notebook in which I do the same thing. Don't have it on me at the moment though.

I like making lists. Keeps me organized.

 

[zcaa0g]

It doesn't seem that difficult to remember if you finished a game or not even if they number in the 4 digit range much like movies on whether you ever watched one or not.

 

[TheGreatYosh]

Autism check

 

[JAMMA]

Do you keep a list of the movies or TV episodes that you finished watching?

wtf lunacy is this thread?

 

[pennythoughts]

I have steam categories setup for backlogged games, games I want to replay eventually and games I'm completely done with.

A ton of people do it for books on Goodreads. Surprised there isn't a similar thing for videogames honestly.

 

[888]

I started a small list of games I’m playing because a few games and can get forgetful. It kinda helps me finish things because getting things off lists is kinda gratifying.

 

[Aidah]

That's cool man.

Yeah, I do keep a list of games I either finished or played for at least 2 hours before flushing, however it's on a yearly basis. I like seeing what games I played by the end of the year and it makes coming up with a top ten easier.

Edit: Hey, a lot of great stuff on that list.

 

[Nightrunner]

Nah. Kinda seems like a waste of time tbh.

 

[Bakkus]

Nope. If I were to guess it would be somewhere between 100-150 games.

 

[Tesseract]

i don't keep lists of any kind

 

[Platinumstorm]

Yes. I have a review system that I do. I have 426 games that I've reviewed. I don't finish many games anymore though, and I have a backlog from PS3, Wii U, and 3DS still.

 

[Greedings]

No. It’s a little obsessive.

 

[Deleted member 740922]

Were we supposed to?

 

[TLZ]

That's cool. I never did have a list.

Thanks for that.

 

[Damigos]

My trophy list keeps track

 

[Touch fuzZy. get BizZay]

Ever since I started posting in neogaf goty threads, I keep a list of the 20 or so games I play each year in a text file so I can remember what I played. I can kind of understand your compulsiveness a little bit, I feel very satisfied when I check off a game as being finished on that list.
