Might as well give this another shot. New Year's resolution in 2009 was to try to actually play and complete games rather than just buy them. Here's how I did from 2008 to 2009:

(Goal for each year was 2 per month, or 24 for the year.)

2008 Completed Games = 8
2009 Completed Games = 16

So, I still came up short, but at least doubled the effort.

Definitely would like to play a little more; getting a little older though, and with 2 kids - it's getting tougher!

Anyway, with over 500 games to chip away at, let's see how we do this year.

blue = storyline/main objective complete
green = all unlockables, side quests, etc. achieved
