I want to say that, despite being the resident Mario Hater, I still love Super Mario Land 1 & 2.

Having spent money just to get the two games back just to beat them in a few days, I can still say thay are worth it and are my 2nd and 3rd favorite Mario games.

If I had to complane, I would have liked Mario Land 1 to be a few levels longer (though being the first gameboy game, I can understand why it was short) and I wish Wario's Castile was not harder than the entire game.

A combined score of 17/20

My 50+ hour plus excursion of Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones finally ended with 100% support conversation completion. I would pick it up once every few months for years and got both Eirika and Ephriam to level 20 Great Lords before taking on the final level and defeat the Demon King.

The Demon King fell in two hits. I was overleveled and I landed two critical hits in a row. That has to be the most anti-climatic final battle I've ever experienced in a game.

Beat Pokemon Saphir Alpha, now i'm gonna capture Dialga shiny & Suicune Shiny :D

Savage Bees, known in the US as Exed Exes. It was a surprisingly easy SHMUP (that I still sucked at) but it was sooooo sloooooow. Getting to the 16th level (after which the stages repeat so I killed myself after beating it) felt like forever but according to the game it still took less than 2 hours. I played it co-op with my friend who got around 3,000,000 points, meaning getting killed after stage 16 took forever because of his accumulated 1ups :D I'll propably never try to waste my time to get to the true end of the game, which requires 10,000,000 points.

Alter Echo. For a game that is fun, but really does not have a whole lot to stand out among all the other action platformers, I will say the final boss fight is the best part of the entire game. Evil Simon Says mixed with another fight mixed with Dead Man's Volley makes it really fun. Also, Dat Finishing Move.

I have to dock points for the cliff hanger ending that (now that Outrage Games and THQ are closed) will most like never be resolved. Just hate games that have cliff hangers but never got a second game. I can only hope that Nordic Games can pick it up since they own THQ which owned Outrage Games.

Pokémon Alpha Sapphire.

I wanted to finish it on Christmas since I've been finishing games on Christmas since 2012, so it's sort of become a tradition.

It was a great game, music was good, story was alright and the final few moment sent chills down my spine and put a smile on my face so that's pretty much all Pokémon is made for, and it achieved it for me.

Assassin's Creed 2.

I played the first, third and black and I have to say Ezio is the most badass. Italy is amazing.

I deisded that was a good idea, so I desided to beat Dragon Ball GT: Transformation. I really wish that this was the new Legacy of Goku. I enjoyed it and the promise of going on to the Super #17 Saga makes me sad.

I've also just finished Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl.

Great game, hoping Clear Sky is just as good (but I hear it's pretty shit)

Overall the story was cool, but I had to really read up on the lore to understand what I did at the end, and what the end meant.

Gameplay was good, but holy fuck the last bit was damn near impossible. 30-40 people, tons of radiation fucking you up, and since the AI can SOMEHOW shoot you through the wall it was damn near impossible to do.

Yesterday I beat Wind Waker HD for the third time, but this time in Hero Mode. I also got every item, heart piece, treasure chart, and all of the figurines. Twas a fun time, but now I need to finish Twilight Princess.

I didn't even know there was a sequel/prequel. Have you played any of the Metro games?

Just finished Tony Hawk Underground and Devil May Cry, I seriously lost count of how many times I've completed these games. They never get old and are minor reminders on why the PS2 is my favorite console of all time.

So I beat both Wonderful 101 and the new Shantae game.

Holy shit W101 is so good. And there is no way I am ever going to get straight Platinum ratings to unlock certain characters.

Shantae is pretty good too, but it's sadly a short game. Still had fun, and it does switch it up with a new moveset you gain across the game.

Ladies and gentlemen, enough for the Goku vs Superman arguement. This guy is probably the most badass character I ever seen.


Just finished Asura's Wrath. The cutscenes are beautiful and really well done. This guy literally destroyed the universe itself.

Plus he's able to take down Evil Ryu and be an even match for Oni Akuma.
