The games of 2008

For four years now, I’ve kept a diary detailing the games I play. Part of the reason was to see how many games I buy (and to reduce this number), and how many I complete (and to increase this number). 2008 saw a drop in completed games – 33 compared to 61 in 2007. I don’t think this is bad, when you look at the games I’ve been completing. In 2007, there were quite a few shorter games, including 5 …

Fallout 3 (360): COMPLETED!

To my regular readers, it may appear I’ve taken a break from gaming for the last week or so. This is not quite the case. In fact, I’ve probably squeezed more gaming hours into the last seven days than any other seven days in the last 15 years or more. Yes, that’s a lot of gaming. All of it (bar a 10 minute Lego Batman demo blip) on Fallout 3. Today, I completed the main story after a total recorded …

Sonic the Hedgehog Genesis (GBA)

This arrived in the post today, along with some other stuff, from Play Asia. And, since ugvm Retro Week has been extended into this week, it was ideal for playing! Or so I thought. It turns out that in the process of simply porting the original Megadrive Sonic game to the GBA, Sega couldn’t help but rape my childhood memories by making it worse than those shoddy “fan-made” Flash-based Sonic games. It has more issues than a journal library. Par …

skate. (360)

For some reason, three of the races I’d previously completed were unlocked again. So I attempted them all, but only managed to win two. That leaves the remaining one and the one that I hadn’t completed before left to do. I then set about ticking off a few milestones – namely the smash myself to bits ones, mainly by throwing myself under cars and jumping off the megaramp at the X-Games stadium at funny angles to land on my face. …

Sonic the Hedgehog: Again

Around this time last year, I bought Sonic the Hedgehog on the Wii Virtual Console.¬¨‚Ć In case you’re not aware, the VC is a download service on the Wii where you can buy, download and play old console games, including the Megadrive version of Sonic. Then, about six months ago, I bought Sonic the Hedgehog on the Xbox 360’s Live Arcade. In case you’re not aware, XBLA is a download service on the Xbox 360 where you can buy, download …

Assorted Games (Wii)

I went and picked up my Wii this morning, and so much of the day has been spent playing on it. The verdict? It’s ACES. Firstly, I played Wii Sports and had a go with the baseball, tennis and boxing games. They’re all pretty good, but boxing is sheer genius. You use the remote and the nunchuk as boxing gloves and actually punch and block with them. Amazing. Had a few goes on the bowling game then, and lost to …
