How do you go about clearing your backlog?

Interested in seeing how other people approach their backlog. I’ve finally made a list of all the games I want to finish, and I’m forcing myself to play one of them a day for at least an hour.

As an added incentive, I’m forcing myself to wait to finish a backlog game before I can buy a new one. I’ve got a lot of playing to do between now and October.

I don't....

The backlog is too strong, and I don't have the time

Seconded. I used to really think about it a lot. For me now, if I want to play it I'll eventually get around to it or make time. If I don't / can't its not the end of the world.

I handle it by dropping things off the backlog if they are too old.

I rarely buy games since PS+ Extra so I’m not buying games to never play them. If I do buy a game it goes right to the top of the list of games to play because I obviously really wanted it.
