mrsmr2

Thought I'd finish Phantom Hourglass first.Â Just made the sword and remembered why I lost interest in this game last time - the Temple of Tediousness.

Going to look at a walkthrough because hopefully there are some shortcuts.

EDIT:Phantom Hourglass done

regmcfly

If it helps, Dungeon siege it only about 10-12 hours long

FranticPea

Was talking to Webbo about my pile of shame last night. When I finish The Witcher 2 I plan to tackle it. Most of them I'm halfway through but any non racing games I'd probably start again.Â

Red Faction:Armegeddon (was really enjoying iirc)
Dirt(unopened)
Dirt 2Â
Sega Rally
The Club
LA Noire
Crackdown 2
From Dust
Castle Crashers(unplayed)

GO!

Birdorf

You lot have inspired me to get to work on my list.

Here are a few that have barely been touched:

Wii

Super Mario Galaxy
Fire Emblem
Metroid Prime 3
Opoona
Little King's Story

XBOX

Mass Effect
Crackdown
Halo 3
FF XIII
R.U.S.E.
Supreme Commander 2

XBLA

Bastion
Costume Quest
From Dust
Lara Croft GoL
Shadow Complex
Stacking Torchlight

Hopefully with a little help and a stiff breeze, I can finish a few of these.

Any Suggestions on which one to tackle first?

EDIT : Stacking Torchlight is two games.

FranticPea

From Dust, I'll do the same.

Birdorf

I was thinking that. Deal.

Bollockoff

I played a bit more of From Dust earlier in the week. I'm one away from the last level. The game just gets so incredibly boring past the halfway point when you're doing the same thing over and over.

Birdorf

Maybe I'll just half finish it.

pandajimmy

dear aunt berta club members,Â

how on earth do you finish ikaruga?Â

kthanxbye,

jimmy

mrsmr2

I left Ikaruga off my list.

pandajimmy

Wise decision.

EvilRedEye

BOOM! Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time DONE. I'll write about it more tommorow, time for bed now.

If only you had something to replace it with...

Tempy

@Bibbidybobbidyboo Play Metroid Prime when in front of your TV and Dawn of Sorrow when away from it. You can thank me later.

Choke

I've been away for a while but I'm on the last level of Killer7. Will aim to finish it this weekend.

Also, I thought the cover mechanic worked rather well in Metroid Prime. Lock on to the target and then strafe behind cover, staying locked on all the while...

I remember Hunters being good, but always good for the DS - the control scheme was horrible hand-cramping nonsense.

Tempy

I never had any issues with the MP controls, even on some of the tougher bosses, Meta Ridley Scott for example. You always had enough health to absorb you local's attacks whilst sorting out your lock-on, would happily jump around whilst fighting too, and do that awesome dash-strafe. Failing that, morphball nuke would win out.

EvilRedEye

Partners in Time: This got a little bit less acclaim than the other Mario & Luigi games, and I can kind of see why, even though I've not played the others yet. The gimmick is basically that you can control Mario, Luigi, Baby Mario and Baby Luigi all at the same time using the face buttons, but it means that the controls are kind of fiddly and awkward. To an extent that's the point, but it's not a particularly fun point. The plot doesn't really go anywhere - I don't expect much plot from a Mario RPG, but I do want the plot to contextualise what I'm doing and motivate me to continue. Sometimes stuff felt it was there for the sake of content instead of having a purpose to it. I sound very negative about the game, but I did enjoy it, particularly at the beginning. I'm looking forward to playing the other games, I suspect I might enjoy those more.

I've added another entry for myself in the Hall of Fame. If you've finished a game and I've missed it, let me know and I'll add you.

Choke

The end boss of Prime though, was a nightmare. I always ran out of missiles and discovered that I needed to effectively grind by finding all of the missile upgrades scattered all over the game. Located some more, still couldn't do it and couldn't be arsed to find any more. Best game on the GC tho. I haven't played a Halo game since 1 & 2 but I'm keeping an eye on 4...

mrsmr2

@ERE,
In that case, since this thread was started I've done:
Splinter Cell Conviction
Metroid Prime Hunters
Zelda Phantom Hourglass
Puzzle Quest

EDIT, oh, and as I've just read the rules at the start, I'm currently playing Dungeon Siege III.

Good tip! I love both games but got stuck towards the end in both cases. I might try to get these over the finish line first off!

fullspectrum

I haven't played Rage in a while, maybe some tonight.

Moto70

I'm not even sure how to find out what games I haven't completed?

EDIT: Looking through my list this is what I can see, some I would love to finish and some I'd rather never see again...

Ace Combat: Assault Horizon
Assassin's Creed 2
The Ballad of Gay Tony
Batman: Arkham City
Bioshock 2
Bully
Dead Rising 2
Dead Space
Dead Space 2 (Still in its wrapper)
Deus Ex: Human Rev.
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
FEAR 2
Fight Night Champion (On the very last fight)
Ghost Recon: Advanced Warfighter
RDR: Undead Nightmare
The Saboteur
Splinter Cell: Double Agent
XMen Origins: Wolverine (Right near the end)

Choke

Out of that list, I'd say Enslaved or Deus Ex, unless they're among the ones you'd rather never see again. FEAR2 is probably the best of the series.

Howdy, Stranger!
