You know there's a Myst 4 and 5, right? There's also the Uru spin offs...

Count it! It's not like this thread is a competition, or for bragging rights. I would personally count it just to go back at the end of the year and be able to reflect on it.

Nah, I don't consider it to have taken any effort and I see my list as a record of accomplishments. This game seriously takes 5 minutes of hitting the space bar, and then you win. Now something like Dragon Age Journeys or the new flash game coming out for DA2 I would count.

I can understand that. Dragon Age Journeys was actually really fun, its exciting to hear they are doing a flash game for DA2 as well! Any more info on it?

I knew of Uru, but the others I missed out on. By the time they came out, I was focusing on FPS on my PC, so point-and-clicks just weren't interesting me. I think I'll seek them out now though.

Started playing Harvester. Look it up.

Maybe now Nintendo will acknowledge Metroid has a fanbase?
Re: Games Beaten : 2011
If we're counting flash games (albeit interesting/complex ones) then my list starts at two!
Something Amiss (Flash)
Assassin's Creed II (X360)
Something Amiss is a nice little flash point & click adventure game that JT recommended in this thread. Quite straight forward but it's an interesting concept and some nice twists in the story. Definitely worth playing.
I'm sure you all know what AC2 is about. I've finally finished the damn thing, now I can finally start on Brotherhood! I won't say much about the game as it really should be experienced from start to finish. One quote from the game pretty much sums up my thoughts though:
Desmond Miles: "What. The. Fuck."

I consider these games defeated because I completed a playoff run on each (Classic '85 Bears on the snes, 94 bears on the genny).
Usually I pick the Genny over my snes for sports game, but not in this case. Everything is better on the snes version. Everything.
That doesn't necessarily mean I don't enjoy Madden 94 on the genesis, but it really is apples to oranges. The player sprites on the snes are crisp, bright, and have some unique actions associated with them such as spinning around after first downs. The genny sprites look completely silly, especially when running on offense. Speaking of running, I returned at least 75% of all kicks on the genesis version, and that's really how I won each game. If I got down by a score, I knew I could make it up on kick returns.
The snes version is simply a delight. Great sound, great controls, great graphics, and most importantly: it is a fun game. The halftime updates are a joy, and when you win the Superbowl you even get a parade. I always enjoyed the fact the programmers added the parade, since in most 16-sport games you're lucky to even see an animated trophy after winning the big game.
I was a frog's hair split three ways away from beating Zillion II last night. I forgot how much I enjoyed Zillion II, and I was totally in the zone last night....Well, until the last (I hope it is the last) boss. I need to look up the instructions for the game, as although I bought it new way back in the early 90's, it didn't come with instructions. Right now, anything that resembles a power-up I grab, which may be counter productive.
