THUG 2
NBA Jam (Xbox)

And I don't even like playing single player...

[Sotenga]

The list does grow...

Dynamite Headdy - I thought this game (or at least the American version) was damn near impossible at first, but if you work hard at the stages, learn where all traps are, and find out how all bosses attack, it can be accomplished. Hell, I even won all four Basketball rounds, got a secret code, and fought the real final boss, the Greedy Corporate Tyrant! Goddammit, Treasure rules.

Ristar - So much fun this one was to play. Grabbing and bouncing, grabbing and bouncing... uhhhhhhh... grabbing enemies and bouncing off of them, that is. Nothing perverted there. This game has some real damn awesome boss battles (I especially like the pre-fight sequence with Uranim where he's throwing large bolts at you, and you can't see him offscreen, but you can see him toss it at you via the monitors in the background), and although some of the level designs come a bit too close to imitating stages from Sonic games, Ristar is still excellent regardless.

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow - Beaten, flogged, conquered, obliterated, done, done, DONE! And yet, I'm not done. I'm still playing it to power up my souls... who knows? I may get nine of every single friggin' soul in the game someday.

Dynamite Cop - I played through all three of the normal routes, but I'll be damned if I can beat any of those Showdown levels that don't allow any continues. Great fun, however, definitely worthy as the sequel to Die Hard Arcade/Dynamite Deka.

And my most recent accomplishment...

Bangai-O - All forty-four levels beaten in one day. Does that tell you how addicted I am to this explosion-fest? :D

[Nez]

RE4 (GCN) Sigh soo many Magnum rounds left. I wish I had a chance to use that weapon. Oh well great game. I'll be picking up the PS2 version when that comes out.

[Cirrus]

So far:

Resident Evil 4 for Gamecube (such an impressive game.)
Ratchet & Clank 2/3
Fahrenheit (also called Indigo Prophecy, Highly recommended!)
Golden Sun 1/2
Casltevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Phantasy Star 1
Astro Boy: The Omega Factor
Super Punch out (for the 1000000th time)
Link's Awakening DX (10000th time)

Also, I finally got a hold of my collection of old PC games, so I've ripped through the Quest for Glory games, the first 2 Secret of Monkey Island games, and Commander Keen 1 and 2.

and the big one:
Super Mario Brothers. I considered this quite a milestone, since as a child I constantly got stumped on 8-4, and if I did find my way through, that damn final hammer brother made a mess of my tiny self. Finally ran under him and took out the big man. What a game.

[Crush Crawfish]

Since I last posted in this thread (August) I've beaten these:

Killer 7 (GCN)- Freaking awesome game, easily the second best game I've played all year. It had some of the best boss fights I've ever encountered in a game.

Sonic CD (GCN Gems Collection)- I waited roughly 12 years to actually play this game, and I must say it was worth every minute. Easily one of the best Sonic games ever created.

Sonic R (GCN Gems Collection)- It's not nearly as bad as everyone makes it out to be, though the soundtrack is nothing short of bizarre. @_@

Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow (DS)- Okay, so I technically haven't beaten it (I still need to get Julius mode and the good ending) but whatever, I did get the worst ending. Counts in my book. :P

Jump Superstars (DS)- Awesome smash bros-esque fighter. Any manga fans with a DS should really import this one. Though I still have a few cards left to unlock....

Ossu! Tatakae! Ouendan (DS)- Without a doubt the best game I've played this year. It's a music game from the creators of Gitaroo-man that simply couldn't be done any system other than the DS. An absolute must-play.

....I'll add the rest later. :/

[roushimsx]

Just beat God of War yesterday. Fantastic game and worth every bit of the $35 I spent on it. Wish I hadn't waited two months to play it, but god damn did I have a hell of a lot of fun.

I'm generally not a big fan of boss encounters, but God of War did 'em pretty well.

Next on the plate is Shadow of the Colossus, which pushes my Xbox games futher back into the queue :(

[djbeatmongrel]

King of Fighters 94 (CD) Shit herdien was harder then Rugal!

King of Fighters 96 (Neo) Damn great game. Huge improvment on 94/95 Mr Big is a fun charictor to use.

[-hellvin-]

Recently beaten:

Gamecube - Prince of Persia: Warrior Within

Really fun game. I love the platforming in this one just as much as the original. Apparently I got the bad ending, as I killed the empress and basically everyone died horribly. From what I read, you have to find all the life upgrades which I apparently missed quite a few of. Oh well, something for another day...

[Nez]

Finished Vampire the Masquerade Redemption.

Wow wasn't expecting to finish this game as fast as I did but I was enthraled at the end. Got the good ending now ill go back to see the other 2.

[-hellvin-]

PS2 - Shadow of the Colossus

One of the best PS2 games I've ever played. Really freaking addicting. Flew through this one in about 2 days ;D. I'm defenitely going back and doing hard mode as well as time attack on both difficulties to unlock everything.

[djbeatmongrel]

Gitaroo Man was today's victory game. its one of the best music games i have played

Katamari Damacy (PS2)

[boozi2]

Hmmm... Lets see...
Minish Cap
Golden Sun: The Lost Age

Working on:
Final Fantasy 7
Tales of Symphonia
Dragon Force
Shining Force 1
Shining Force 3 (All 3 Scenarios)
Fire Emblem (1st one on the GBA)

Probably finish some of 'em by the end of the year :D
Ahhh, knew I've forgotten something...
Skies of Arcadia. Definitely one of the best RPGs I've ever played...

[Ryaan1234]

Mad Maestro(for the 2nd time)
Jet Set Radio Future
Freedom Force
Zelda: the Minish Cap

and so far those are the games I've beaten this year.

[roushimsx]

just beat Skies of Arcadia Legends on the Gamecube. Really felt like a classic 16 bit rpg with nice Dreamcast visuals the whole way through.

Oddly enough, it took me 44 1/2 hours to play through, the same amount of time it took me to play through Tales of Symphonia. I wonder if I should test my luck with any other GC RPGs just to see if I can clear them in 44 1/2 hours as well, heh.

[Tanis178]

to my recollection this year:

splinter cell chaos-theory -3 times (man do i ever love this game) (xbox)

kotor2- at least 5 times altready (xbox)
jade empire- as good a play as kotor (xbox)
LTTP- 2-3 times i think (snes)
shining force neo (ps2)
kingdom hearts (ps2)
smb3 (nes)
star wars bounty hunter (ps2)
star trek elite force (ps2)
nfs-high stakes (ps1)
front mission 4 (ps2)
ace combat 4 (ps2)
evolution (DC)
sega rally 2 (DC)

technically i suppose i can't really add older point-driven games to this, most really don't end, but i suppose high scores i can be satisfied with could count as well :P

[djbeatmongrel]

Today i finally beat the very last boss in Metroid Prime 2: Echoes. christ this game is hard but i persisted. although i cringed once it said theres a hard mode. its really one of the best Cube titles to date

KOF 97 (normal difficulty) Neo CD Orochi got knocked the fuck out.

KOF 98 (MVS Diff) AES found a way to kick rugals ass with terry not much he could do. Hes the only carictor I have trouble with save for the horror of heidern, (THE HORROR!)

[GaijinPunch]

I recently cleared ESPGaluda II on 1 credit.

[Jumpman Jr.]

Oh man... I've been playing The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons on my GameBoy Color and I desperately want to try to beat it before the year is up. I think I'm in the last dungeon, and I've done most of the side-quests (I think), so hopefully with a few hours of gaming in today, I won't have to post this in the "Beaten in 2006" thread.

[Nez]

Baten Kaitos Finished only took me 60hrs and a few months to beat. Good game but the card system can be a little frustrating and will screw you at the most inapropriate times. Finished all the side quest but one.

[DLord0]

Let's see, this year I managed to get all the way through:

Breath of Fire GBA (never beat the original on the SNES)
Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow
Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance
Devil May Cry 3: Dante's Awakening (easy mode only so far)
Gyakuten Saiban
Gyakuten Saiban 2
Gyakuten Saiban 3
Kingdom of Paradise
Persona 2: Eternal Punishment
Shadow Hearts
Shadowrun SNES
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II

There are quite a few games that I've played for quite a while that I unfortunately haven't gotten around to beating yet through:

Prince of Persia: The Two Thrones - Probably more than half-way through, the axe/sword boss fight annoyed me to no end though and I actually broke one of my PS2 controllers over this one, haven't touched it since.

Shadow Hearts: Covenant: In Russia at the moment, probably have plenty of stuff left to do.

Metal Gear Solid 3: Snake Eater: Killed everyone up to The Fury, is in the fortress at the moment, but haven't gotten around to playing more.

Arcanum of Steamworks and Magick Obscura: Quite close to the end here as well, looking for the Vendigroth device at the moment.

Shadowrun Genesis: Close to the end as well, killed off Ogami Ito and is running against Renroku in search of clues at the moment.

[jajaja]

Beat Sword of Mana for GBA last night.
Great game! :)

[Nez]

Another one bites the dust:

Finished Vampire the Masquarade Bloodlines. Good game but man the Load times. Plus its has manyglitches. But its fun and has a decent story to it.

[segagamer4life]

Finally beat ocarina of time last night, wow, what a great conclusion to a great game. It took me over a year with all the time "put off" but it is a great game.. glad I beat it, now on to the oracle of ages/seasons

[Jumpman Jr.]

Awesome! I just beat Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons! I was trying really hard to beat that so I could add it to my list before the new year.
....goes off and looks for Oracle of Ages.

[segagamer4life]

Awesome! I just beat Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons! I was trying really hard to beat that so I could add it to my list before the new year.

cool man, I was going to ask, does it matter the order of completion for ages and seasons? aren't they the same game? Any help on this would be appreciated.
