Title: Games you completed this year.
Post by: Rman on August 21, 2007, 04:43:13 PM
Long story short.  When I started college I stopped gaming.  I still played multi player games at school but I gave up single player games for the most part.  Once I started playing games again, which coincided with college graduation, I started keeping a list of games beaten for motivation.  I do this with my other hobbies as well, such as books, restaurants, and travel. 

Here is my current list for this year.  It includes games beaten only.  I played much more and I've still haven't beaten some notable and excellent games in my collection like Crackdown and Oblivion.  Share what you can remember for this year.

January
none

February
Castlevania: Portrait of Ruin

March
Dead Rising

I took a pretty lofty break from videogaming this year.  The only games I can think of that I completed are God of War 2, Guitar Hero 80's Encore, and Maximo: Army of Zin.  

After I get through Bioshock, I'm gonna go back and clear out my backlog, which consists primarily of Gears of War, Lost Planet, Zone of the Enders 2, God Hand, Skies of Arcadia, and a few others.

Prole, your list makes me want to play more RPGs.  It's hard for me right now since I work full time and go to cooking school on weekends.

I should bring my DS to work, I have nothing to do this week. The teachers don't start until next week, so I'm just twiddling my thumbs while I sit in my office and listen to Sports Radio.

People should make fun of you because more than 1/2 the games you beat were .Hack.  :punch

Most of what I did this year was clear out my backlog:

Shadow of the Colossus
God of War
Metroid Prime 2
Resident Evil 3 (for some reason, this was the only game in the series I never touched)
Super Castlevania IV (I couldn't beat that shit whenever I was like five)

Currently working on:

BIOSHOCK HOLY SHIT
Rebeating Super Metroid (because I can't remember any of it)
Rainbow Six: Vegas
Motorstorm (probably will never happen)


360 games I might finish on a rainy day that I was close to finishing until my system red ringed for the second fucking time:

Dead Rising (seriously, every time I pop this fucker in, 3RLOD. AND IT'S FUCKING SHORT!)
Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion
Crackdown (I will have to rent it though, but I got about halfway through it off of my friend's copy.)

Games I will beat this year, guaranteed:

Halo 3

It took me like 42 hours, but I wasted a lot of time. You can probably beat it in 30-35 hours.

I just finished Anuenue. Now I can freely go back in time. My time is 50 hours, but that's probably because I didn't know until not too long ago that time still went by when you paused the game.
