Continuing with tradition and in some parts of the world it already is 2010.. what have you beaten this year?
Continuing with tradition and in some parts of the world it already is 2010.. what have you beaten this year?
I am a collector of the classics (Atari, NES, SNES, Genesis, 3DO, Saturn, etc.)
I approve of this topic.
Kicking off 2010 by completing a game on day one!
1. Real Racing - iPhone
Now I know its only an iPhone game, but its the most console like of my iPhone games and had to do a huge number of races. That last one was very intense and nerve-racking. Great game.
Batman Arkham Asylum. But I did start it before we left for Michigan. The game's fantastic and I was highly disappointed when it ended.
1. Street Fighter IV (on my brother's PC). Medium level, with Sagat. It counts, doesn't it?
Blowing on cartridges since 1987
I chose to go with a classic for the first game I beat this year, Lufia 2, and now I'm at the end of Chrono Trigger(SNES of course).
After that I plan to get in some Faria, and FF 7, before feb/mar comes, because I'll be playing Shiren(wii), RO(DS), and SMT:Strange Journy(DS).

Ahhh, finished it last night but it was technically already the 2nd of January:
1. Kirby: Nightmare in Dream Land
NES, SFC, SNES, NDS, PS2, GCN, PC, PS2
and hopefully more acronyms to come
Silent Hill 3, today.

I know you can't really "beat" Dr. Mario for the NES, but I have thoroughly abused him already this year. I finished level 22 on high earlier today on my FC Mobile II. I know it goes up to 24 or something, but 22 is still far enough to see the viruses get abducted by the UFO. I'd call that an ending, I guess.
1.) Torchlight 1/2 -- Level 32 Alchemist
It was a great little game, but the end boss almost made me not want to replay the game. He was unfair, impossibly hard, and just stupid. I wish games had good end fights still.
Beat F.E.A.R. on 1/1/10. Bout damned time I got around to it.

1. Shadow Warrior. Only ever really played Duke Nukem 3D back in the day and ignored this one. Darned entertaining.
Made a review of the game for Lazy Game Reviews: Shadow Warrior review
2. Blood. Amazingly well-done game, very much like Duke 3D just much darker and more sinister. Blood review
3. Carmageddon

I think this plays better than previous games in the Lego series (Star Wars) and is well worth the time for anyone who was a fan.
1. Professor Layton & The Diabolical Box
2. Shining Force (for the umpteenth time)
Both of my saves were sitting towards the end of the game, blasted through them last night. Am trying to work my way through my backlog of games where I'm near to the end. A surprisingly high amount!
I reject your reality and substitute it for one of my own!
1. Mega Man 9 (XBLA, 1/4)
2. Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine (Genesis, 1/4)
MM9
Much like Swamperon and Gameboy Color, I was right near the end of this one, so I just loaded it up and finally beat the last few levels. I did enjoy this game, I think I tricked myself into thinking it was much harder than it actually was so it took me a long time to finally beat it. I did enjoy it though and I am more than ready for Mega Man 10 in the coming months.
Mean Bean Machine
I like the Puyo games, but man can they get hard toward the end. Either way I'm done with this game...so, let's never speak of it again.
