I add them if I intend to play them. Multiplayer only titles are a little tricky to "beat" but I mark them as such when I feel like I won't play them anymore or if I've reached a certain goal I'd set for myself.
No rush if you're still getting entries, I'm just looking forward to seeing how we've all done.I can do it tonight (in about 12 hours). It only takes me five minutes but I need to use a Unix computer to create the images.

The only real rule is that anything that gives a plus also have to give you a minus when you get it. So if you buy Game X with 3 DLCs and want to count it as 4+, it also needs to be a 4- (if you bought it after starting the "challenge").Is there a consensus on how to approach DLC/expansions for this?
In addition to what Spyware just wrote, I'd say that it matters when you got the DLC. If you bought it together with the game (a personal example being Witcher 3 GOTY Edition) I might not count it. If instead you pick it up after beating the actual game, it might feel relevant.Is there a consentsus on how to approach DLC/expansions for this?
I gave you a +1 for each game you removed as well, since they are gone from your backlog. Here is a plot showing the summed score below and the added/completed/removed split above.[Edit: Hold on... I think I have either entered the form wrong or something is off in the transition to excel. I went +19, not 39... ]
That's cool, and how I count it myself, but figured we usually only counted completions here.I gave you a +1 for each game you removed as well, since they are gone from your backlog. Here is a plot showing the summed score below and the added/completed/removed split above.
That's why I don't add removed games to the stats btw.I gave you a +1 for each game you removed as well, since they are gone from your backlog. Here is a plot showing the summed score below and the added/completed/removed split above.

Question, now that Gamepass is going to likely be a bigger "thing" are we counting games on it like we do for GwG and PS+ games? (i.e. no net change in score?)
I would think its the same principle.

Here is a question.
If you buy a game collection. Say the Crash collection. Does that count as one or as 3?

A pretty great start to the year albeit with plenty of short games. My aim for this year is to get through some of the shorter games in my backlog and then tackle some of the beefier games once I get below 500, only another 67 to go..... One thing this month has taught me is I'm not a fan at all of horror games, Amnesia is way too much for me.
Dude, wtf? :OOH. FUCKING. NO.
Main OP
I did not finish a single game this month. It wasn't even until the middle of the month I first started playing an actual game for the first time in the year.
Since then, I've been buying like crazy. After rebuying an Xbox One in November during Black Friday, I've been building up my Xbox One collection again. And now in the week-and-a-half before this post going up, I've gotten a 40' Samsung 4K TV, a PS4 Pro, traded my Xbox One S towards and subsequently bought an Xbox One X in the past few days and now most likely today, rebuying a PSVR ahead of Zone of the Enders 2's 4K/VR release in the Spring. And in light of those purchases, I've bought games that bring out the best of each system quite a bit which has added to my tally a ton. Plus with a PSVR purchase today, I'm buying Skyrim VR.
Legit question: someone please do an intervention on me. It's getting out of hand. :<

Start tracking your spending and maybe seeing it summed up can make you slow down? Hell, maybe you don't need to, but to me that seems completely crazy!
