Buck and the coin of destiny (iPhone)
FIFA 10 (DS)
007 Goldeneye (Wii)
Tatsunoko vs Capcom (Wii)
Snk vs Capcom: match of the millennium (NGPC)
King of Fighters XII (PS3)
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare Reflex (Wii)
Total games beat: 7

I had mixed feelings about Kof XII, but probably shouldn't complain since it could be the last one to come stateside :( Back on the game, I felt the AI was cheap at times, such as spamming low kicks and waiting till I attacked. Also, I was disappointed in the amount of characters there were. If I have to give praise to something, it is the graphics. It was the only thing that kept me playing.

Call of Duty on Wii is awesome with its control scheme. I actually prefer it than a dualshock controller, after playing both versions. The game's single player places you as the role of a British SAS or an American soldier. I enjoyed the story mode but found the ending to be a bit sad. The multiplayer paved the way for the series from on out and I see why. There is a good level of customization and is my most played game on Wii.

Now on to Perfect Dark, Timesplitters:FP, or HotD: Overkill cooperatively with my brother.

I've yet to play Brotherhood, (though I will) but I obsessed over AC2 for some time. That character is one that I love to hate and hate to love. He's such an insufferable grouch. :lol:
Just like me 8) Maybe that's why I like him so much.

Jurassic Park is basically your point and click adventure. You have your puzzles, you have a few guns, you have amazing music, and you also have a time limit.

All the puzzles are obvious if you pick up on the clues, and I'd say a novice could beat the game their first time, with continues of course. There is very little animation in the game, but when I see it, I'm impressed. Parts are frustrating, especially the Raptor fight, but the game gives you a feeling of actually being at the Park.

Just for the sound alone, especially the sound of being mauled by a triceratops, the game is worth it. It's not too challenging, but the game has its moments for sure.

Galaga Remix - Wii *new*
Tatsunoko vs. Capcom - Wii *new*

Total: 11


Galaga Remix on the Wii is nothing like any other Galaga game (remixed or otherwise). It is a light gun shooter where you have to protect Pac-Man as he travles on a rail around a level. It sounds bizzare, and certainly isn't what i thought I was going to play when I fired up the game for the first time, but it was a lot of fun nonetheless and I didn't put the game down until I had beat it. It's a fairly easy light gun shooter with a few interesting mechanics, and definitely worth checking out for its gameplay and graphics - just don't expect a shmup.

Tatsunoko vs. Capcom has been taking time away from other games this week, and it is easily the best fighter for the Wii and perhaps the best fighter so far this generation. Yes, it has an easy control scheme - but that makes the game FUN instead of frustrating. In the few days I have played I've unlocked just about everything (including the extra game) and have 1cc'ed it multiple times (what I usually count as "beaten" for a fighter). The TvC stick feels absolutely right with this game, whereas I thought it felt clunky with games in the Samurai Showdown Anthology. Anyway, it is worth picking up if you haven't - don't hesitate like I did!

I am just starting Chrono Cross (SNES), Dead Space 2 (PS3), Ibara (PS2), and Mushihimesama Futari 1.5 (360), so those games might make the list next. I did credit feed through the arcade version of MF, but can't in good conscience list it until I have beaten it on a fixed number of credits (at any difficulty level). I also have a bunch of sports and racing games I have been slowly working through - hopefully I'll get to add them to this list at some point soon also.

Mario Kart DS. Consider it beaten because I got gold on all of the cups. Levels are brilliantly designed, but the AI cheats like a mofo.

Lost track of how many games this makes this year. These threads move too fucking fast.

This game has been giving me fits. The part that I beat (and therefore consider completed) is the Arcade mode, which I finally beat by kicking 25 straight goals from predetermined spots with different wind, after probably trying 100-200 times before.

It's a good game and well worth $0.99. PikPok is an excellent developer.
