How many < unplayed games > have you piled up from Humble Bundle and Steam sales?

11-20, Steam sales plus actual boxes I have still in shrinkwrap.

Course, I only own four at the moment.

I love that you still buy boxes Gordon.I did the same for a long time, but let my habit slip away.

I love the boxes. Crysis just came in the mail today, in fact... was something like $5 on amazon.
I am doing more work on the basement, and am going to have new pics soon.... including the game collection up on the shelves.

Unplayed games that I intend to play, or unplayed games total? Some of the games I have came in bundles and I have no intention of ever playing them.

I went with total. I got some crap from HB that I'll never play, but counted it.

But is that a pile of shame though? I'm ashamed that I haven't played Elder Scrolls: Oblivion yet. I'm not ashamed that I haven't played Juided 2: Hot Import Nights because I have no intentions of playing it. It just got included with a bunch of games I DO want to play. There are other games that I bought, played for a bit and found to be stupid and don't ever want to play again.I have over 70 unplayed games. But I'm only ashamed of about 30.
What about games I've played, but have not finished. I have a bunch of those too.
Games with ZERO game play is a fairly short list. But add games I've played but have not finished, the total jumps way up.
I would say there are about 40 games that I own and want to play and/or finish, but haven't yet. I would say there are over 100 games that I own, haven't finished and/or haven't played. Only about 30 games that have not been touched but I intend to play.
I guess building a list of shame for me is like TPR sorting loot. Too many variables.
