    Hello fellow Youtubers.

    I am planning to do gaming related New year promise for 2016. I am planning to play my unplayed Steam games in next year. I am going to challenge you and my channel watchers to join my cause. Unplayed games can be also from GOG, Gamersgate etc.

    Even if you have many physical copies. Also the is no platform restrictions.

    One of the playlist for my front page will be dedicated to other Youtubers that join to my challenge and post links to their videos and i approve them to shown on my channel.

    Currently i have 212 unplayed games on my Steam account, and many of them are from bundles etc. Where you actually wanted 1-2 game, but get 3-5 games that you don't wanted. Also many games from annual Steam sales etc.

    I have done some ranking for these videos and there is currently 99 games on my to-do list. Do you think that 1 year will be enough time to play these games and also done some videos about these games and my progression.

    Also planning for some thumbnail templates to use in these videos. Also some general scripting of videos and taglines and some intros are in planning stage.

    Will document my journey mainly in my Youtube channel and post these videos to x social media and blogs.

    What do you think about this idea. Wanna join my cause and do your own promise/challenge videos for your unplayed games. Is 99 games doable in 1 year and how much is minimum time to play one game, before starting new one.

    <EDIT>
    Because MGN forums has own thread for Youtube videos, so i post my new videos there.

    Or if you like more copy/paste your link

    I actually have to push myself to complete some games. I keep buying new ones before i complete my older ones. Still need to complete MGSV and such...
    Maybe a good promise for 2016 to first complete a game before i buy a new one xD

    I'm in that same problem as you. It's why I created my channel, The ADG Man Cave. I get games like everyweek. Some I get personally, some are giving to me from my freelance work website work. I never have enough time. Hell, I'm one of few people who think games have gotten too long. Anyway, good luck we have similar challenges. Maybe we can make a friendly competition out of it. I'll be watching.

    Here is my "rules" or guidelines what i follow with my gaming challenge 2016

    My "Official" list of games for this challenge contains 99 games (out of 212)
    that i actually wanted to play, but don't have the time.

    212 games in 1 year is quite impossible if you want to actually play and enjoy
    your experience. 99 games is also quite much, because i am working part-time father and
    i must also sleep ;D

    So to successfully say that i have completed the game and can count it as played, i must
    play it atleast 4 hours and maximum hours to play one game is 20.

    This is my challenge for myself and other gamers alike. Play your unplayed games in year 2016.

    Join my cause and tell your story and how many games you have to play in this challenge.

    Also post your progress videos here.

    You can follow me in many ways, but 3 main ways are

    PS. Hey moderator's of this forum. Is this a right place to submit more of my challenge videos and texts.

    Year 2016 is here and i have just played 1st episode of Telltale's Jurassic Park - The game.

    Game itself has left me very mixed feelings and it feel's like a misstep for Telltale games. But again, they have learned their lesson from this game and perfected it for Walking Dead and newer Telltale games.

    I had been away and just enjoying the holidays mainly. I will say..I'm not sure. We are trying to restrict too much promotion in general discussion. For the mean time, you are fine. Future posts of your videos should go in the video section.
