The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Seeing as its the last month of the year i thought id look back and try to remember what the fuck ive accomplished since January. As usual, not a whole lot.... But in gaming terms i should have gotten payed by the hour!
This thread shall require you to review your year and list any games you have Started and Beaten to Completion since January. And i dont mean 07 titles only, or finally finishing the last 2 hours of Okami or any shit like that.
And if there was any goals of specific interest that you set for yourself or inadvertantly succedded in, they should be noted as well. But seeing as i dont play MMORPGs, i have few of those.
Anyway for me it was the year of the backlog.... All games i have started and beaten this year;
PS2
God of War II
Mercenaries (With Mui, the wuss)
Fatal Frame 2
Silent Hill 2
Viewtiful Joe
Soul Calibur 3 (all unlockables)
SW Battlefront 2
Metal Gear Solid 3
Red Faction
SoTC (Hard mode)
Ico
God Hand
PSX
Riven
Space Hulk; Pixels of the Blood Angels
SNES
Uniracers (gold in all tracks)
Flashback
Super Metroid
Yoshi's Story
Genesis
Various games on the Sega collection.

klonoa 2
ratchet and clank up your arsenal
guitar hero 3
guitar hero 80s
phoenix wright 2
portal
half life 2

knytt story
Bioshock
Mass Effect
Half-Life 2
Half-Life 2: Episode 1

Halo 3
Metal Gear Solid 1
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Elite Beat Agents
Yoshi's Island DS
Super Mario Galaxy
Towards the tail end of this year I have resolved to only buy ONE game at a time and wait until I've completed it to buy another and move on.
This rule has various caveats, such as the ability to purchase any Wii party titles if I'm having mates round and Virtual Console and XBLA titles are also exempt.
With that in mind, this year I have completed:
Crackdown
Another World (Quite a number of times)
Prince of Persia (2D original)
Heart of Darkness (I got addicted to this type of game, see the two above!)
Super Paper Mario
TMNT (oddly I got very very addicted to this game)
Psychonauts
Zack and Wiki
Portal
Assassin's Creed.
I'm currently getting on with Super Mario Galaxy and enjoying it immensely. Mass Effect has already been bought thanks to a cheap-ish deal and I've given it a quick play, but I don't know if it's the type of game I can really sink a lot of time in to.
Best game I've played and completed this year though would definitely go to Zack and Wiki. Fantastic.
::Edited:: To my shame I forgot Portal, my second favourite title of this year!
Also Rocket Slime (main plot), Phantom Hourglass (main plot), Pokémon Pearl (main plot), Hotel Dusk and Guitar Hero on easy.
I also unlocked every truck and every paint job in Excite Truck.
I blame university life and my general incompetence when it comes to high-level gaming - you'll notice that the three DS games I completed are more about collectathons than beating the main game.
Oooh, I forgot the other games I completed during Lave's Sunday Morning Gentleman's Club:
Sonic the Hedgehog 1 on Master System (first time I'd played it and possibly my favourite sonic game!)
Super Mario Land on Gameboy (on original grey gameboy brick no less)
Half-Life 2
Half-Life 2: Episode One
Half-Life 2: Episode Two
Half-Life 3: I'm Joking
Portal
The Darkness
Halo 3 on Legendary (Co-op)
Guitar Hero 2 on Hard
God. I have pretty much spent the entire year playing EVE and have accomplished nothing
D:D:D:
I guess I am pretty space rich.
I didnt include the many hours i spent destroying people in Soldat... It alone is enough to let me know that online gaming will dominate me if i let it. And dammit i wont let that happen!
Conquests
Digital Devil Saga 1 (for the 2nd time)
Digital Devil Saga 2
Uncharted (both normal and hard)
Heavenly Sword
Guitar Hero 3 (medium.... not quite through hard yet...)
Final Fantasy 3 DS
I'm currently trying to get through FFT PSP and Metal Gear Solid 3
Failures
Grand Theft Auto 3 (meh, kinda bored me after a while)
Resident Evil 4 (the game's just too freaking intense for me)
Final Fantasy 1 PSP (the girlfriend took the psp and played this game, so I did somethings else)
Disgaea (Kinda got bored, but more I dunno...just didn't feel like finishing)
PC
Psychonauts (Or was that last year? I can barely remember.)
Half-Life 2: Episode Two
Portal
Tomb Raider: Legend (I played it for free through Gametap.)
I stopped playing WoW, but I don't know if that counts.
DS
New Super Mario Bros.
Pokémon Diamond
Zelda: Phantom Hourglass
Wii
Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi 2
Metroid Prime 3
Super Mario Galaxy Virtual Console
Sonic 3
Super Metroid.
I think that's all of it. Initially I wouldn't say that I've bought/played that many games, but listing them like this make them seem like a lot.
Finished
Guild Wars: Eye of the North
Neverwinter Nights 2
Neverwinter Nights 2: Mask of the Betrayer
Company of Heroes
Command and Conquer 3
Pathologic
Tomb Raider: Anniversary
Tomb Raider: Legend
Metal Gear Solid 2
Bioshock
Call of Duty 4
Stalker
Rainbow 6: Vegas
Half-Life 2: Episode 2
Unreal Tournament 3
Portal
Peggle
Dark Messiah of Might and Magic
Test Drive: Unlimited
Started
Enemy Territory: Quake Wars
World in Conflict
Witcher
Gave Up
Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts - Waiting for a patch
DiRT - Lost Disc
Psychonauts - Got annoyed at shittyness of gameplay
Jade Empire - Couldn't get widescreen to work properly
Crysis - Runs like a dog
I beat the EQ2 Echos of Faydwer expansion I guess. Finished all the raid zones and the Sword of Destiny quest. Only thing I did not get to kill was bristlebane. Oh and bioshock was beaten as well.
I stopped playing WoW, but I don't know if that counts.
....
I think that's all of it. Initially I wouldn't say that I've bought/played that many games, but listing them like this make them seem like a lot.
That counts bigtime. I wont state my unrelenting hatred of WoW in depth here, but i am not a fan.
Thats the thing... I was kind of shocked to realize how many games i played this year. I had no idea until i focused my powers of list making on them. I dont know if its been my busiest year, but it sure as hell looks like it. I had 2 on the go pretty at all times.
The ones i didnt mention were;
Ecco 1 & 2

Well, I finally beat FF7 after playing it for 10 years... I also beat MGS1 twice in a row and it's sad because I consider FF7 and MGS1 two of my favorite games and I've only just beat them? Haha, I was really bad with games when I was younger and I never beat them.

I've had a shitty year so I wasn't able to game much until recently, I didn't even have Internet for most of the year.
I thought I'd spent more time on PC this year but when I think about it I've only really been playing those two games. Also, I know I'm late to the whole Mario thing but I never had nintendo consoles growing up so BACK OFF. And I've assumed that getting the highest rank in VF5's quest mode and beating the arcade mode on the highest difficulty constitutes 'beating' it. As does gold on all tickets for Motorstorm, though that tested my usually zen-like calm.

I thought I'd spent more time on PC this year but when I think about it I've only really been playing those two games. Also, I know I'm late to the whole Mario thing but I never had nintendo consoles growing up so BACK OFF. And I've assumed that getting the highest rank in VF5's quest mode and beating the arcade mode on the highest difficulty constitutes 'beating' it. As does gold on all tickets for Motorstorm, though that tested my usually zen-like calm.
