Games Beaten : 2011

[SwooshBear]

I heard Kirby and the Amazing Mirror is a metroidvania ( I also hate that term).

The one Kirby game that I didn't like. I guess I'm not much of a metroidvania person.

2010 Games Beaten

Legacy is a very worthwhile add-on, as I spent 4-5 hours with it (doing all the sidequests and taking my time), and is in some ways an improvement over the main Dragon Age II game and story. The lore in this world is really very interesting and runs quite deep, and the story in this add-on really fleshed out a few things quite nicely. Pick it up if you are a fan of DA at all.

If you try to fight him at your first opportunity you won't get anywhere. How many hours/what level are you at?

Super Mario Bros 2 for GBA *new* Say what you will about the voices but this is what I want from a Nintendo rerelease. An auto save system, less stingy health refills, and graphics improved from Mario All Stars, all these things make this the definitive version of Mario 2 for me.
Killzone: Liberation for PSP *new* I don't think I would have ever picked up this game if it wasn't free and now I'm glad I didn't miss out. This is exactly the kind of game the PSP is for and did a great job being an overhead action game instead of trying to be an FPS without the second analogue stick.

Thoughts on the Game(s)

This is the first time playing Episode 2 through, I played HL2 and Episode 1 through when they first came out, then decided I would wait for Episode 3 to come out before I played Episode 2 and 3, well we know how that went so when my mate finished with The Orange Box for the 360, I borrowed it and played through all three of them back to back.

While I felt Episode 1 did not add enough to the game in terms of new experience or even new environments and locations, I really enjoyed Episode 2 and felt it was on par with Half Life 2, the ending was a bit anti climatic, I had heard so much about the Strider Battle, but I did not have any trouble with it, after it was over and the last chapter started I was expecting some awesome final boss, but I guess the Striders took its place.

The ending was enjoyable enough.
