The Completion Thread 2007

[Yoshi]

Portal. It took me forever, because the later levels gave me motion sickness in places. While I wasn't nauseous, I was loving it though. It's the game of the year so far by itself. Once I finish Episode 2, it may be out of reach for the upcoming games too.

I too finished Ep2. It was awesome, and it just makes me mad that it'll be two years before this gets wrapped up.

I finished Halo 3 co-op (half drunk, half hung over). I figured I would be sick of the series but it was more improved than I expected, the most epic game I have played in a while.

#16. Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door - GC

Good game, but tedium and backtracking is out of control. It's there in every level to some degree, but then they really outdo themselves near the end.

There's a hard-to-find Bob-omb character which will have you revisiting every single town. You go to a town, find a specific random person who then tells you to go to the next town, and repeat for every single town.

Then there's another part where you have to say "I love you" 100 times by hitting the A Button 100 times in a row. It's like their Design Doc had a section titled:

Antagonizing the Audience OR What Won't They Put Up With?

So far it's:

Super Mario RPG > Paper Mario (N64) > Paper Mario: T1kYD

And I hear SPM is the worst one yet. I bought it tonight, so I'll soon be finding out.

I just finished Snatcher for the first time. I had started it a few times, but it could never hold my attention unless I was playing it in front of a TV for some reason. Very glad I did so. Next SCD game for me is probably Rise of the Dragon, as one of my roommates has been trying to get me to play it for months now.

Now that that's done, it's on to Phoenix Wright 3 and back to chipping away at Persona 3.

Antagonizing the Audience OR What Won't They Put Up With?

SPM does that even more. It's ridiculous, the video game version of Electroma. Nintendo provides such nice things, and now they're just making fun of the people that like the company.

Super Mario RPG > Paper Mario (N64) > Paper Mario: T1kYD

SMRPG always had some x factor that just bored me. Paper Mario was so clever, but now i'm convinced they've done all they can with it and they shouldn't even try anymore.

And I hear SPM is the worst one yet. I bought it tonight, so I'll soon be finding out.

Yeah, it is, and it had the most potential.

I thought SMRPG was terribly charming at the time, but I've never successfully completed a replay. I'm not sure if that's the game's fault or mine though.

Super Paper Mario is pretty much a letdown in almost every way possible, though. I was really upset about it.

Finished Portal. Great ending indeed.

[VampHunter-X21]

I beat portal.

I beat Portal's Bonus maps.

next: portal time challenges

I finished up Eternal Sonata yesterday. Decent game with a nice look to it. That ending sure dragged on with all that nonsense the characters spew out. I also think it would have been nice if the music was more in the style of Chopin instead of typical jrpg fare. Not sure if I want to go through the game again to get the rest of the achievements but I did manage to do everything I could do the first time around.
