I might throw a giveaway up here in a bit, haven't decided yet.

With New Years coming up, I've started thinking about what I want to do for a New Year's Resolution with regards to Steam. I spent the last 20 or so minutes skimming my library and picked out a decent amount of games that I have wanted to play for the longest time, but never got around to playing for some reason or another. Here is the extremely short list of games I chose:

http://pastebin.com/gn2HpHLD

Whoops, not so short is it?

I think for my New Years Resolution, I want to finish at LEAST 25% of these games by the end of 2016. I think that's a reasonable goal.

Out of that list, which one should I try to finish up before the end of 2015?
This list does NOT include my planned LEGO Marathon or Tales of Zestiria.

What kind of Steam New Years Resolutions are you guys going to do?

LA Noire, Dust: An Elysian Tail, Shadow of Mordor, Just Cause 2 (it's great!)
Spec Ops The Line might be the shortest - it's a decent thought-provoking story that would be easy to finish.

I played a good chunk of both Dust and Spec Ops before, I'm wondering why I didn't continue them ><

Beat the utter hell out of Skyrim when it released on consoles, and I've cleared a lot of mod content already as well.

The point is I'm bored of it by now, I've logged at least 2,000 hours into it across PS3 and PC.

I'd love to have no backlog at all. Not necessarily beating every game, but put an hour or two to tell if I want to. My wallet is certainly helping with that fact right now, but you guys certainly aren't. I've been pretty good about playing my games I won here and I'm all or most of the way through a tonne of my recent ones, but not enough.

Tomb Raider and Just Cause 2

I think for the new year I'd like to at least start up and try about 50% of my current backlog or at least every game that I've won.

Is that a game you want to get, or are you suggesting that for me to play?
If the latter, I've beaten it and maxed 4 different characters on it already :P
If the former, go for it, fun game even if it's a little grindy.

My New Year's Resolution is to make at least one drawing a week. More would be better but the bare minimum is one. I got a tablet for christmas a year ago and after the initial excitement settled down I didn't really draw as much as I should have and I want to change that in the coming year.

Games I want to finish next year are:

  • Alice: Madness Returns
  • Alien: Isolation
  • Amnesia: The Dark Descent (been putting it off for too long)
  • Armikrog (thanks Santa!)
  • Banished
  • Beyond Good & Evil
  • Bound by Flame
  • Fable Anniversary
  • Grim Fandango Remastered
  • Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor
  • MURDERED: SOUL SUSPECT
  • Pillars of Eternity
  • Republique
  • Resident Evil 4
  • State of Decay
  • Skyrim
  • Transistor
  • Valkyria Chronicles
  • Watch_Dogs
  • XCOM: Enemy Unknown
  • Ziggurat

You should consider joining the Backlog Assassins thread/group. (There's also a public group on steam called Completing the Backlog which provides some good motivation to play more games)
