Do you immediately play the sequels?

Confusing title, probably, but allow me to explain.

For example, let's say you get Dragon Age and Dragon Age 2. You haven't played either, but you own both of them, and you're eager to play them. Of course, you start with the first Dragon Age. When you're finished, do you start DA2 next, or do you finish another game before jumping into the second one to avoid "burning out" on the series?

I immediately play the sequel if I bought it. I don't get burned out very often, because I only play a couple hours each day. I found that if I play marathon sessions I get bored. The game stops feeling fresh. On the other hand, if I miss a few days gaming I will also get bored mainly because I forget what all I was working on in the game the last time I played. If I just play a little bit every day, I never get bored. Kinda wierd.

If you're asking if I immediately buy sequels, no way at all. I always read reviews and follow player discussions on the game before buying it. This is assuming its a new game. If it's an old game with a nice sale (Steam), I will sometimes buy a game that seemed interesting without doing a lot of research. The price has to be pretty low though. Besides, playing just a couple hours a day, it takes a long time to finish a game completely (I try to get most achievements and secrets). If I bought a lot of games all the time, most of them would just sit collecting dust.

I never have to make that choice. I always make sure I have completed a game before buying another. That's just one of the very few things that I learned to do from Charlie Sheens' new book Bi-winning: Learn to Win a Little Here and a Little There.

I wait a bit. Like it happened with Crysis where I bought Crysis: Maximum Edition. I played Crysis. Then I played Final Fantasy XIII. Then I played Crysis: Warhead.

I play part one , then I play part 2, then I play part 3 one after the other immeadiately.

eg CODMW then CODMW2.

I always wait for a while especially if I really liked the first game because I dont want to ruin the experience. Even if the reviews for the second game are very good I wouldnt play it right away. I would try to find a completely different game, some different setting or genre. And somehow the anticipation is exciting:)
