So I made one of these about TV series awhile ago. What video games (or any other kind of game too I suppose) have been on your radar to check out for awhile, but you just never seem to get around to checking them out? They can be new games or older games, just something you've heard good things about and seems interesting to you.
Also, feel free to let people know if the games they list are awesome, or if they shouldn't waste their time or whatever. Be sure to let them know why though!

I haven't played any of the God of War series. It came out shortly after my original PS2 broke and I switched to Xbox. Never did get another PS2. But, now that I got a PS3 I need to get them in my collection.
One I need for my 360 is Forza 4 and Forza Horizons. F4 I plan on buying. I rented it and thought it was the best one in the series. FH i will probably rent first to see how it plays and the amount of cars/customization.
Kingdom hearts 1 & 2 for ps2. I've got the time to play but I've just been to lazy to pick'em up. Heard good things about the series though.
Sadly they haven't held up well. They're two of my favorite games of all time, but I played them a year ago and they just did not play as well as I'm used to from this generation. The nostalgic value and cool (if impossible to understand) story kept me around though.
I've wanted to play Saints Row 3 for a while but I've never gotten around to picking it up. That's really the only one I can think of. I've been lucky enough to have the free time to play lots of the games I've wanted to.
About Frox: for nearly 10 years, Frox has been helping women look good and feel great in easy-fit, mix-and-match, and work-to-weekend with just a few pieces by helping them make the right choices when it comes to clothing and accessories.
The sad bit is I have all these games in my collection but have no time to really play them. One day I will.
I'm in the same situation. My backlog of stuff I own but haven't even opened goes back to the PS1! I may be misremembering some of the names below:
Valkyrie Profile
Final Fantasy IX
Grandia
Arc the Lad
Lunar Silver Star Story
Lunar 2 Eternal Blue
Skies of Arcadia
Grandia II
Wild Arms 5
Atelier Iris 2
Atelier Iris 3
Mana Khemia
Mana Khemia2
Ar Tonilico
Ar Tonilico 2
Suikoden 3
Tales of Symphonia
Atelier Rorona
Atelier Totori
Atelier Meruru
Ar Tonilico Qoga
Hyperdimension Neptunia
Hyperdimension Neptunia 2
Record of Agarest War
Record of Agarest War 2
Death Smiles
Otomedius Excellent
Sakura Wars So Long My Love
Fate/Extra
Growlanser Wayfarer of Time
Trails of the Sky
Ace Attorney Investigations Miles Edgeworth
A Witch's Tale (started before Halloween but never got past the first town)
I know there's more but I can't remember and don't want to go digging through the collection right now. I also have board games I haven't gotten to yet that aren't listed.

People who haven't played Shadow Hearts or Shadow Hearts: Covenant; need to. Amazing games and Covenant is hands-down on of the best PS2 RPGs- and infinitely better than FFX.
Rogue Galaxy was good, though I got tired of the game when the cliches invaded enmasse... not to mention a few of the characters felt like tag-a-longs.
That said:
Mass Effect 3- been playing the multiplayer a lot, but have been waiting to play all three in one marathon.
Witcher 2: Assassin of Kings- bought these purely to play over the summer, and never got around to it. I can only thank Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning and Skyrim's Dawnguard for taking up all my time over the summer.

I still need to get moving on Eternal Sonata and castlevania lord of shadows. Well technically I am about half way through castlevania but haven't gotten around finishing it yet.
Kingdom hearts 1 & 2 for ps2. I've got the time to play but I've just been to lazy to pick'em up. Heard good things about the series though.
Play KH1 and 2 earlier rather than later. They're both fun action platformers, but having played KH1 3 times and KH2 twice, both games get linearly less engaging with age. I thought the whole story/worlds/concept were amazing when I was 12-13, but I could barely sit through a single ridiculously silly cutscene on my last playthrough of KH2.
Fun drinking game: Count the number of times characters say "heart" during cutscenes. It feels like 20% of the total game script.
The games I have in line to be played:
- The Witcher 2
- Civilization 5
- Psychonauts
- Charles Barkley's Shut Up and Jam Gaiden
- Final Fantasy 12 (I'm determined to slog through this game eventually)
- FF 8 (same here)
Sims. I played sims 1 extensively and was addicted. However, when my hard drived crashed, I simply didn't get around reinstalling it. Sims 2 and 3 came out and I still haven't.
Final Fantasy 8, 9. My PS1 already died when I got my hands on FF8, and my PC wasn't up to the emulation requirements back then.
Kingdom Hearts. Same situation with FF8. By the time I got KH, my PS2 was dead and my PC wasn't powerful enough for emulation.
I'd like to get my hands on Civ 4, but it isn't sold locally.

that's all i can think of off the top of my head.
But I can't find the time to play it all the way through
Mabbz on MTGO | Demgrinds on Twitch & Twitter | Helpdesk
Zeldas on Wii
Finish Morrowind and Shadow of the Colossus.
Halo4 is also on my list. I'm a bit tired of the Halo franchise, but its become a tradition.
Standard:
UR Ral Combo
Modern:
U Merfolk
R Goblins
Commander
RB Grenzo, Dungeon Warden
R Feldon of the Third Path
Ms. Splosion Man: I think I'm about half way through but I really want to finish it. It's so much harder than the first one.
Fire Emblem Radiant Dawn: So loooong... I'll finish it eventually.
I've wanted to play Saints Row 3 for a while but I've never gotten around to picking it up. That's really the only one I can think of. I've been lucky enough to have the free time to play lots of the games I've wanted to.

@Feathas: I heavily support playing SC: Covenant. The original SC is very rough around the edges and overall mediocre. But, at least it's short.
As for me, I'm not sure. Maybe Mega Man X Street Fighter.
"Can you apply the penal code to demons?"
This. I bought so many games the past couple of years and haven't played them.
Rogue Galaxy
Dragon Quest V
Dragon Quest VI
Dragon Quest IX
I would get on that ASAP, pronto, light speed my good sir. One of the best 2 intertwined games i have ever played and sat through.
On sale, that is.
I'm a bit biased, but finish Shadow before you take your next breath. SOTC is by far the best game of the previous era.
What's the appeal of this game other than the multiplayer aspect? I just cannot get into it like other RPG's.
