Beaten in 2011

[heybtbm]

Finished Dead Space 2 tonight. Minor Spoiler: The last 10 seconds are great. Totally didn't expect the humor after 10 hours of death and carnage. You have to finish the 1st Dead Space to truly appreciate it (I'm sure most people will). Genuinely funny.

Jan. 5th - Dead Space (on Impossible difficulty).
Jan. 23rd - Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Jan. 29th - Quiz and Dragons.
Jan. 30th - Dead Space 2.

[JSoup]

1. LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1 - 4

2. Ecco the Dolphin

What a bullshit game. Difficult to control, hard to play, the game gives you no clue on what the damn objective of any given level is and Ecco takes getting hit like a fetus in a microwave. However, I will say that the game is super pretty to look at.

[Aussie2B]

1. Solatorobo: Sore kara CODA e (DS) 1/3
2. Pokemon Snap (N64) 1/4
3. Goemon: Mononoke Sugoroku (N64) 1/28
4. Spyro the Dragon (PlayStation) 2/1

Played through Spyro nice and quick, just like I was hoping for. I think it took four days of playing, and I didn't even play that much those days.

1. LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1 - 4
2. Ecco the Dolphin

3. Streets of Rage

Fun times. I had spent a lot of time with the thrid game when I was a kid, but I never really got to play any of the previous titles. Amazing soundtrack coupled with fun gameplay. Will play again, seems like it would be really fun in co-op.

14. The Simpsons Game (Xbox 360, 2/1)
15. Orcs and Elves (DS, 6/1)

Being afan of the Simpsons I had fun with the game. It was great being able to explore the town and see familiar 'hot spots'. More fun (and easier) in two player mode. Oh and the cut scenes and quotes were funny.

Orcs and Elves - short but had fun exploring the dungeons, beating the monsters and collecting the treasure. Sound was surprising good too.

03. Resident Evil: The Darkside Chronicles (Nintendo Wii - January 29th)

A buddy of mine comes in from NJ to visit a few times a year and we always end up playing light gun games, last time was Umbrella Chronicles this time it was Darkside Chronicles. This game seemed a little easier to us or maybe we played it on a different difficulty setting, we played for around 8-12 hours in a couple days and had a good time with it. We always just hated the single player parts why couldn't they just make it all 2 player!!!!

5. Zelda II: The Adventure of Link (NES) 2/7

I just beat Zelda II for the first time ever, and I sure feel accomplished. :) Not only because just about everyone had played through it but me (especially among my family and friends), but also because it was damn tricky at parts. And having played through it completely, I all the more don't understand the hate because it's definitely a very good and fun side-scrolling adventure game.

Haha, I realized I am doing something quite different from everyone else here. Since my post is on page one, I keep just editing that post. I have been a busy gamer. I'm participating in the gameplay tracker on Atariage.com and also keeping track of what is done in my wordpad document. It's a playthrough and buying checklist. I am also recording videos of all gameplay by using my capture card. So far I have not beaten anything I haven't played before. But I am making sure that I no longer leave games that I buy CIB unplayed.

Beat this one on beginner just to pass some time and try to rescue some P.O.W. Really fun, enjoyed it a lot more on the PSP than the DS the huge PSP (even if it is a 1000) sceen just made it so much better! :)

Will do someday. Any Westone game is a must-try in my book.

Mobile Suit Gundam Encounters in Space. It sucks losing your PS2 memory cards. Every single game I own for the PS2 that I haven't played on my PS3 means that I have to make a brand new character, unlock all modes, difficulties, characters, alternate costumes etc, etc, etc. On the other side of the same spectrum, I've just increased the replay value of all my PS2 games(atleast those that I've played and plan to play again.) Even though I finished Mobile Suit Gundam Encounters in Space, there's more content on this game than almost every other non RPG title I own for the PS2, and even some of the RPGs, so it'll still keep me busy for awhile.

[wfnjstallion]

1) God of War III (PS3) I could've done without the timed jumping sequences, but other than that an amazing game as expected.
2) the Conduit Special Edition (Wii) Nothing here we have not seen a million times before, however for a quick run & gun it was an enjoyable game.
3) Mario Super Sluggers (Wii) A great game for my wife & I to play, of course once she fell asleep I took on the single player adventure.

Well I got this game a a few years ago (2006?) from the girl I was seeing at the time as a valentines day gift and never beat it. Today I started over completely and played through the game on the normal setting. This game is so good, I have no idea why I never beat it earlier, maybe it was that stupid shark you had to run away from I have no idea. I highly recommend this game to anyone who is a fan of rhythm based games. With 3 ways to hold the controller there is something for everyone.

For some random reason in parts it reminded me of Phantasy Star Online...! I definitely recommend. Might have to icjk up Mass Effect 2...

Still going strong. Finally broke 30 today.

Sonic Triple Trouble's 5th Special Stage was giving me triple the trouble it normally does and I spent 4 hours getting good playthroughs for both Sonic and Tails with all emeralds each. Figure it takes 25 minutes or so just to get to the 5th Special Stage, then if you mess up twice in a row at it in Meta Junglira Zone its harder to get to the Special Stages in later levels so might as well retry from the beginning. I ended up with three bad takes and two good takes.

I used to play Sonic Triple Trouble back in 7th grade but hadn't tried for all the emeralds back then and hadn't played it as much as Sonic 1 & Sonic 2 for Game Gear.

Since I've been stuck in bed with the flu, I needed a handheld game to play, so I went with the first Dragon Warrior. I've beaten it on NES before, but the GBC version has a fair amount of differences.

New to list:

#4: Marvel vs. Capcom 3 [Arcade mode beaten; Akuma unlocked] (PS3) [2/20]

After having some trouble, I did finally beat the Arcade mode...after having to use continues several times during the fight with Galactus. However, I managed to get in the finishing blow with Zero; which, after having to do the fight several times over, was very satisfying (Also, defeating the shadow characters he sent out in less than 10 seconds by locking them in an air combo as Tron really felt good).

I still have more characters to unlock, although I think I'll take a break from it to finish up the first Dragon Warrior.

Ugh I give up trying to beat all of Sonic Blast for Game Gear's special stages in a row. Sonic is ok to use throughout the game and I got close to getting the last emerald with him, but Knuckles is quite a bit harder to control in this game so I didn't even try to get all the emeralds when I used him. The outcome would have been the same anyway. Beating the game without all the emeralds is like playing a game on normal mode. Beating it with all emeralds is like playing a game on hard mode. That's how I figure it. Just like like getting 100+% in the Donkey Kong Land / Country games or all the stars in Mario. Not necessary but it is a bonus accomplishment that is sometimes rewarded with extra levels.

[Swamperon]

1. Alex Kidd in Miracle World

2. Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance

A female characters only playthrough. It was pretty challenging for the first 10 chapters or so. The defence mission with 3 characters was rather difficult. Glad I did it though as it made me use characters I'd previously disregarded. Recommended!

I beat Steam Hearts for PC Engine.

I cheated and used save states. I just wanted to see if it was as shocking as I heard it was. It isn't. The cut scenes are BORING and long. The game itself wasn't bad though.

I also beat Air Zonk on easy mode :D

Ah, it's so very nice to have an N64 again. This is easily one of my favorites on the system, it holds up well even today and I can't wait to see if they make any changes to the port on the 3DS.

5.) 2/5 Final Fantasy IV (SNES)
6.) 2/20 Shadowgate (NES)
7.) 3/1 Bulletstorm (X360)

I wasn't going to pick this one up initially, but I realized that I simply had to have the Gears 3 beta. I was surprised by how fun this one was. Definitely not worth 59.99, but it was an enjoyable romp.

Edit: I failed to mention that the dialogue was ridiculous, and I wanted to bang my head against the wall.

New to list:

#5: Dragon Warrior (NES) [3/3]

After spending most of the past weekend trying to beat it, making my character as strong as possible before attempting, I finally beat Dragon Warrior. To be honest, even with the best equipment possible and getting my character to level 30, getting to the Dragonlord was harder than actually defeating him; those red dragons I kept encountering where a lot harder to kill and a lot more vicious in battle.

With that out of the way, I might try to finish up .hack//Quarantine soon; I don't think I have much longer to go before the final boss.

[incubus421]

3/3 - Killzone 3 (PS3) - Beat the single player on the standard difficulty. I only played the demo for KZ2 and didn't really care for it. However a relative brought this one over for me to try and I got hooked...went out and rented it the next day so I could finish up the campaign. I wouldn't drop $60 on it...but this game is awesome!

2/23 - Marvel vs Capcom 3 (PS3) (beat on hardest difficulty and beat with nearly half of the characters to this date)
2/15 - Little Big Planet 2 (PS3)
2/3 - Dead Space 2 (PS3) (time = 6:07'40'' Hardcore; Platinum trophy)
1/13 - Gran Turismo 5 (PS3)

[fahlim003]

I've beaten Half-Life 2 (PC), Donkey Kong Country 2 Diddy's Kong Quest (SNES - not 100%), and Oracle of Seasons (GBC, completed quest from Oracle of Ages) so far this year. Hope to complete a few more this coming month.

#1: Prinny: Can I Really Be The Hero? [Flonne's Castle beaten] (PSP) [1/7]
#2: LittleBigPlanet (PS3) [1/20]
#3: Sonic Adventure [Tails' quest beaten] (PS3) [2/12]
#4: Marvel vs. Capcom 3 [Arcade mode beaten; Akuma unlocked] (PS3) [2/20]

New to list:

#5: Dragon Warrior (NES) [3/3]

After spending most of the past weekend trying to beat it, making my character as strong as possible before attempting, I finally beat Dragon Warrior. To be honest, even with the best equipment possible and getting my character to level 30, getting to the Dragonlord was harder than actually defeating him; those red dragons I kept encountering where a lot harder to kill and a lot more vicious in battle.

With that out of the way, I might try to finish up .hack//Quarantine soon; I don't think I have much longer to go before the final boss.

Yeah you only really have to be level 21-23 to beat the Dragonlord. I just run away from Red Dragons, Stonemen and others that live on the very bottom level. That way you can save all your healmore spells for during the final battle. Since stat points are random, this varies though.

Let's See.

American McGee's Scrapland (awesome enough to where I am thinking of doing a second playthrough)
Lost Planet 2
Sega All-Stars Racing
Rock Band 3
Sonic 1/2/3/S&K (yeah, that was an awesome weekend)

[JSoup]

1. LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1 - 4
2. Ecco the Dolphin
3. Streets of Rage

4. Braid

Deceptively difficult but a joy to play. Looks great and sounds great. Worth a play for any platformer fan. Careful, though, it's actually rather challenging to finish.

Games that I've beaten so far in 2011:

Bayonetta (Xbox 360) - I loved this game. It was fun and full of cheesecake. I beat it on easy (automatic). I won't be going back to beat it on normal or harder. Great game if you get it cheap! - Jan 2011

Jumping Flash (PS One) - I downloaded this from the Playstation Store. Played it on PSP and PS3. I love the second game but never played this first one until now. It was really good but not as fun as the second one. - Jan 2011

Steam Hearts (PC Engine) - I played this just to see how dirty it actually was. It barely is. I think there was one exposed boob in the whole game. - Feb 2011

Strip Fighter (PC Engine) - same as Steam Hearts, but there was more nudity, but it really isn't worth playing. I played it using a two button setup, which sucked. It might be better with six buttons, but I doubt it. - Feb 2011

Street Fighter Alpha (PSone classics) - God I love this game. Guy is just as much as asshole now as ever! I bought this for 3 bucks from PSN - totally worth it! I had this on Saturn when it first came out, the two versions are basically identical - Mar 2011

[Julio III]

Haven't posted this year, but here's my small list so far:

Whoa I broke 40 today. These two versions of the original Bust-A-Move were new to me. I liked the looks of the Neo Geo CD Bust-A-Move better, but the 3DO version is much much longer and offers more modes of play. I had almost 5 hours of bubble-popping action tonight. My eyes are exhausted and seeing a little blurry now.

41. Beyond the Beyond - PS1

Ahh, Beyond the Beyond is one of my favorite RPGs. Not a lot of people feel the same about it, but this is the 11th time in my life that I've beaten it. It took me about 22 hours or so of gameplay according to the save file.

[Swamperon]

Beaten prior to 2011 and beaten again in 2011:

1. Alex Kidd in Miracle World
2. Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance

Beaten for the first time in 2011:

1. Sonic Chronicles
2. Zelda: Spirit Tracks

3. Tales of Symphonia.

I had originally played this years ago after borrowing it from a friend but it really bored me after a while, I recently decided to give it another go and I actually completed it.

My opinion of it has improved but I still think the story suffers in terms of pacing at certain points. A few characters felt pointless and some the music is unbelievably mundane. Having said that, the battle system is fun, there is a lot of content and some the characters are loveable. Recommended if you're into JRPGs.

(Have I only beaten 5 games this year? I really need to stop starting a game up and then moving to something else, only to come back weeks/months later to it. I figure I'm currently playing: Pokemon White, Luminous Arc 2, Fire Emblem: RD, Shining Force: CD and No More Heroes 2.

That's not including the 10 or so games I have save files on waiting for me to resume after nearly a years absence.)

[The 1 2 P]

Just beat Conan. Like SW:CW:RH this game also sucked. It wasn't that hard but there were some cheap deaths to be sure. And the last boss was a bitch with his six forms to beat and nearly an hours worth of fighting him and his minions during all the various forms. Definitely won't be touching this one again anytime soon, although the flowing boobies were nice.

Just about as bullshit as the last game, but with creepy animations and music. For being a powerful dolphin, Ecco kinda sucks.

Battlefield Bad Company 2 this Monday and Blood Omen 2 Legacy of Kain yesterday.

First time I've played the single player on Bad Company 2 since I now own the game, and I have to say that once they remove the servers, Bad Company 2, in my opinion will go to a 1/5. The reason for this is that there is no offline multiplayer. Most newer FPS games suck without multiplayer and the entire reason to play through single player is to learn the controls and mechanics.

This isn't the first console FPS I've played that had online multiplayer but didn't have offline multiplayer. The first game was Unreal Tournament 3 which was later updated with a patch, but if the system is ever formatted after servers go out, even that will be gone. There are probably others, but I haven't played many FPS games.

I finished Pac-Man Championship Edition: DX tonight. By "finished" I mean that I finally got an "S" rank on every single map. The game is unbelievably addictive. Probably my favorite XBLA game so far.

Jan. 5th - Dead Space (on Impossible difficulty).
Jan. 23rd - Call of Duty: Black Ops.
Jan. 29th - Quiz and Dragons.
Jan. 30th - Dead Space 2.
Mar. 21st - Pac-Man Championship Edition: DX

[timewarpgamer]

Super Meat Boy (Xbox 360) -- Still got lots of dark world levels left to conquer, though, but I don't think I have the patience...

Might and Magic: Clash of Heroes (DS) -- I lost interest in the story pretty quickly, but the puzzle-style combat (think Puzzle Quest) is really well done, and once I started playing I had to finish it.

I picked this one up as it was going relatively cheaply at my local games store. Was it worth it? Not sure... The game initially bored me but the more I played the more I was compelled to complete it. The boss battles were ok, the mix of hack n slash coupled with platforming elements was also ok but could have been done better. I died far too many times due to the camera and awkward controls and if I never seen another Gingerbread man again it will be too soon...!

1. Sonic CD (Sega CD, March 25)
