malachi1987 Posted May 9, 2018 Share Posted May 9, 2018 (edited) Thanks to a good friend of mine of always coming thru with good banners I been recently slowly attacking my backlog and been trying to think of a cool run way to keep me from destroying it. I been toying with the idea for years and always ended up failing. Been seeing all these posts and how something like this has helped them so figured why not. What I'll do is get a number generator online somewhere and have it randomly pick a few numbers from each of my spreadsheets. Few from my ps4, and ps3. Once I completed atleast story or plat it will get crossed off my list. Only way I can buy new games is if I complete enough games. It will be 1 point for every game not on my list and 3 points for it being on my list. I'll need 35 points to buy a new game. I'm hoping by the occasional comment from y'all this will keep me motivated to knock it down. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ozNfNTfvwtHnUTZ_GSmO-S9ZixWUM9_Prr0ePqS1wvA/edit?usp=drivesdk I'll also take requests from the masses for a game to be put up on there. PS4: 1.wwe 2k16 2. Helldivers 3. Far cry primal 4. Batman arkham city 5. Deadpool PS3: 1. Pac-man and ghostly adventures 2. Velocity ultra 3. Batman arkham asylum 4. Infamous 5. God of war ascension Current points :0 New games bought :0 Edited May 10, 2018 by malachi1987 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lojtana Posted May 10, 2018 Share Posted May 10, 2018 I myself am a person who is really indecisive when it comes to choosing the next game I want to play, so I really like your idea with the random number generator. Maybe I'll steal this idea and implement it in my own Backlog Reduction. I've seen the idea that you can only buy a new game once you have earned enough points around the forum a few times now and I personally don't have the restraint for that concept, but it's really interesting nonetheless and I wish you the best of luck with reducing your backlog.

(: Thanks, I know I'll probably end up folding on points if a super sweet deal shows up on Amazon and best buy. But as you can see my backlog got way out of hand. Hoping this keeps it fun or atleast interesting Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malachi1987 Posted May 29, 2018 Author Share Posted May 29, 2018 (edited) Since I can't seem to focus on what's hand I'm going to start gearing up for my 10yr anniversary since I first started popping these bad boys. I'm going to atleast have 10 ready by then but going to try to do a rain day of all my coolest plat titles and pray I can do them all that day Edited May 29, 2018 by malachi1987 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
