Those with long memories or stalker-like tendencies may recall 'Blistered Thumbs', where I recorded all the games I completed in 2005. Over the past year I've continued to use the Wish List in a way unintended, plonking down on it the titles I have played to the point of seeing the end credits or unlocking everything. 2006 saw me beat 33 games, four more than last year, though a number of them were shorter titles and I have included Xbox Live Arcade stuff too. Spookily enough, like last year the average score at GameSpot for these titles was 8.2. The 360 became my preferred format over the original Xbox with nine games done, while Nintendo's home consoles, GameCube and Wii, ratcheted up one beaten game on each. To buy all these games would cost you about $1,410 - money well spent, Godfather aside.

how much were those bit generations games?
Posted Jan 3, 2007 6:04 am PT
They were about £13 each from Play-Asia. Dotstream and Orbital were worth that in my opinion, the others not particularly.

Wow, that's quite impressive. I'd guess that I beat around seven or eight games in a year, tops.

Hmm, interesting. The minimal presentation turned me off, thanks Shelc. Did you get my Miis?
Posted Jan 3, 2007 10:15 am PT
Woah that's some hoarde! only played a handful of them myself but the ones i have played on your list were mightily impressive, shows your great taste. No Elite Beat Agents though which is a disappointment *shakes head*

Thats a lot of games. One of my problems is that I don't finish enough games.

GG - haven't got your Miis yet. Your thing is still greyed out in my address book.
Fish - funnily enough I bought EBA two days ago but won't open it until I, er, beat Ouendan. Ready Steady Go sure is tough!

my upgraded net is messing me around so i may not be able to get online for a bit.
Posted Jan 6, 2007 12:08 pm PT
Oh boy, thats a LOOOT of games! Where do you get the time (and money) for all these days ? Also, what are your top 5 picks from these ?
Posted Jan 7, 2007 3:14 am PT
Time - was a student, now job searching, so it gives me some time for them. I know when I was at work and on tight deadlines in university my game playing went out of the window.
As for a top 5 - in no specific order, Phoenix Wright (DS), Shadow of the Colossus (PS2), Psychonauts (Xbox), Dead Rising (Xbox 360) and Guitar Hero (PS2).

Whey hey! Happy to see Ace Attorney in your list. I completed it last night. Took me a while to finally sit down and play the game, but I'm so glad I did now. It really impressed me, especially chapter four and chapter five. A shame Phoenix Wright 2 doesn't seem to build on the DS's capabilities.

Hey mate i can see you have been busy gaming last year, well done for beating your record in 2005. Dead rising is a brilliant game, very impressed how you got through it without restarting. Oh, and by the way the next time we meet on the pitch on the evo'06 live ground, im gonna get some serious revenge. speak to ya soon mate.
