Sometimes I just want to move on to another game, but for the most part, it doesn't bother me. Which is good, considering I have 37 games in backlog (technically 44, having Megaman Zero Collection and Metroid Prime Trilogy).

Probably the only benefit to Australia's manic pricing is that for the longest time I couldn't have every game I wanted so I became quite picky. So I would never say I had too many games at one time to worry about backlog.
Although it was/is relevant since I came back from a trip to the U.S of A, with a bunch of cheapo games in tow and I do sort of get what you mean, but I cant honestly think of trading them in.

No, and I have a huge backlog too.

I feel like I have to rush through a game to get to the next one sometimes, but when do get done with a game I make sure I have everything done with it. If I wanna play it again I will wait awhile before I get back to it since I want to get through a few games first.

I have a very long list of games I need to get through but I've never felt a loss of interest in them if I've wait too long. I have The Saboteur that I've been meaning to play and I've had that game for over a year now (I think it's been over a year anyways) and I really want to get to it even though I've heard it's mediocre.

Not really, then again I tend to jump from game to game (old and new) at an alarming pace.
I'm currently playing through 3 titles at once.

[small/]and yes storeperson..I know your obligated to ask me every fucking time but if I wanted upcoming x title that bad I would have already pre ordered it...so thank you..but no...NO I DO NOT WANT STOP ASKING ME THINGS[/small]
I actually like that. I only got red dead because some guy recomended it to me while I was either pre-ordering some games or buying something. I really enjoyed it too.
edit: OT: I have never had a backlog of games seeing as I am to poor to buy more games then I can play. Maybe now that I have $70 saved up for steam summer sales I will experience that. Oh wait I have one right now what with that huge Warhammer 40k sale. I should proabably be playing those...
