My backlog is big enough that I've decided not to buy another game until I've finished them all. This means I've also delayed buying any nextgen console, as this serves as extra motivation to get through it all 
Last game I bought was GTAV for PS3 on release.
My list:
GTAIV (almost finished)
Dishonoured
Mass Effect 3
Skyrim (almost finished)
Skyward Sword
Halo 4
Gears of War
Alan Wake
Witcher 2
FFXIII (almost finished.. I think)
Bioshock
Yakuza 4
Fallout 3
Chrono Trigger
FF6
Sleeping Dogs

damn I must be one of the few gamer that don't have a huge backlog
I think I got too much free time and I rarely can prevent myself of finishing a game in less than a week.
Current semi official backlog:
-Farcry 3
-Farcry 3 Blood Dragon
-Bastion (though I just stopped playing)
-Withcher 2 (mostly only because I can't play because my computer can't handle it)
Games I play:
-Diablo 3 (here and there)
Waiting for:
-Binding of Isaac Rebirth
-Farcry 4 (in hope I can run it)

Never played it sorry. On bulletstorm it might actually take 8 hours I cant remember clearly if i beat in 3 days playing 2 hours a day or if it took 4 days. I do remember being both disappointed at the end in a "that's it?" sort of way and the lack of rapey thoughts[footnote]http://www.foxnews.com/tech/2011/02/08/bulletstorm-worst-game-kids/[/footnote].Hazy992 said:
I've got about 50 games so far in my backlog that I haven't yet finished or even started, and that's not including 10-15 games that I have already finished that I want to replay.
In hours I would say I would need to have about 750 hours to finish them all. Well at least I've got a month off of working coming up soon so I hope I'll get through at least a few of the games during that time.

At least 150 or so games on Steam alone. Another 90 or so on GOG(though some of those are 3-4 game compilations of older games).
And a few on PS3. I still have to play Silent Hill 1-3, God of War 2-3 and Final Fantasy 9 and 10. Oh, and Breath of Fire 4 and Okami.
And I ever find a cheap copy of Dark Cloud(or DC2) there's that.
I figure by the end of my life I'm gonna own every game in existence and only have played a tenth of them.
I just finished the Mass Effect Trilogy(including my first time playing Mass Effect 3), so I'm still kind of recovering from that(Not the ending, which I thought was good enough, but just doing 3 big games in a row and sinking a couple hours per day into).
I'm gonna play Dreamfall:Chapters(since I'm a backer and I've been waiting for a good 7 years to see them try to answer of the questions from dreamfall) and the season 2 premiere of The Last Door next.
After that, I'm not sure what I'm gonna play. Opening my GOG or Steam Library is NOT helpful at all.

Singularity takes about 10 or so hours, tops.Hazy992 said:
I felt it was like Bioshock but not quite as good, which it too bad considering I loved the concept(I'm a sucker for time travel games).
A whopping 177 (maybe more, rough guesstimate) games across 12 platforms. The pain of being that guy who owns every single console and handheld..as well as a PC. Just not enough time to play them all, especially since I'm a completionist and trophy hunter.
...None, I've powered through all of them and I would look into my next title but at the moment spare time seems to not exist. Hopefully I can get this gremlin off my back and can get time back for actually acquiring and playing games. It is worse when you have no time and all the titles you want are massive time sinks.
Off the top of me head: About five or six.
-Legend of Grimrock 2
-Borderlands 2: The Midquel
-A Link Between Worlds
-Bioshack: Infinite (maybe)
-Divinity 2: Original Sin
-Dragon Commander (Now that I have it working; silly NVidia drivers. >_<)

It's manageable. I played through a lot of my backlog this year and got rid of a good portion of the ones I never saw myself getting around to so it's down to a relatively trim ten or eleven games.
Right now I have...
Super Time Force
The Banner Saga
Metro Redux
Bayonetta 2 (Considering I bought it last week, I don't know if this qualifies)
Pikmin 3
Phoenix Wright: Dual Destinies
Rhythm Thief
Max Payne trilogy
Bastion
Elite Beat Agents
Plus I've picked up Earthbound, Yoshi's Island and Aria of Sorrow on the Wii U virtual console and should get around to playing through those eventually.

Nothing... if a game doesn't interest me enough right now in this moment to play... I don't see it as worth playing. Recently I checked The Last of US off my "sorta" list. The gameplay was uninteresting, I can careless for another zombie game, and I found it too graphically violent... which is my number one reason I can't stand zombie anything anymore.
-_-
The Lat of Us was the last game I sorta still had on the backburner, and now I probably will never continue that game ever again.
So there.

lol wait...the website wants me to individually add all my games?
LOL that would take a whole damn day, between steam/gog/origin and humble bundle....fuck. a whole damn day of just organizing and adding games to there. Fuck that.
I will say my backlog has gotten exponentially huge, and even if I just averaged 10 hours to beat all my unbeaten games, it would still take 2000+ hours....
so yeah, I've accepted I'll never catch up, and just play what I feel like playing and be happy ^_^

I've pretty much given up on ever finishing my backlog but there are quite a lot of games that I plan to finish in the near (maybe not so near) future:
Fallout New Vegas (started once, started modding, never finished it and encountered quite a few bugs)
Arcanum (finished like..50%? wanted to start it again)
Arx Fatalis (Played the start of the game sooo many times but never got far)
Wizardry 8 (started once, got annoyed by the level-scaling but I still liked the game and want to finish it some time)
Magic Candle 1-3 (played 2 and 3 as a child, liked it but it went way over my head)
Dark Messiah of Might and Magic
Evolva
MDK 1+2
Icewind Dale 1+2
Thief 1 + 3 (recently finished 2, played a lot of 1 + 3 but never finished them)
