Yeah and it's actually coming out for a console I own. :P I'm working my way through Sonic 1 and 2 on VC right now so I'll be prepared.

I did beat Darkside, it's Umbrella I still have... I think TatsuCap is great, will probably be even better when I unlock Zero.

You poo. You spoiled NMH2. At least just note that you're Rank 1 and no more.

Well there's Project Needlemouse... yeah...

I loved Sonic Rush. :D Even though it's one of the few DS games in my backlog. Stuck on the last boss. >_<

So disappointing. :/ Secret Rings was great. Why'd they have to eff it up? v_v

So, how was Sonic and the Black Knight? Heard some awful things about it, but I really liked Secret Rings...

Minion of Bak'laag: 100+ unfinished games
Re: Demon's Souls - It really depends on your play style. The game is unforgiving if you are impatient and charge ahead without thinking things out. It also teaches you the hard way not to panic when you're defeated. You will suddenly feel like you're losing progress when you die, because you literally do lose progress in the form of souls (xp/money) in-game. However, the real progress is learning how to get further into each level inch by inch. With that progress, you'll ultimately learn that losing souls is often just the price you pay for getting better at the game.

Ultimately, it's a game of patience. If having to be patient with a game scares you, then maybe Demon's Souls is not for you. However, there's a legion of people in the official thread on GAF who claim to hate difficult games and yet have learned to love Demon's Souls despite (or actually, because of) that.

SM is... well, I don't know what to make of it yet. I know I like what I see so far... really like. The graphics are great, the lighting is PHENOMENAL, the gameplay is both what I always wanted from a Wii game and also super intuitive...

The framerate hitches a bit, but the world is seamless so it's forgiven... The chases are a little frustrating so far but that's because I'm learning the ropes.

That said, what I played of DSC wasn't that hard, of course I played with a second person. In fact it seems much easier than UC, but that might be the bigger impact the bullets make tricking me...

I don't know if I'll ever have the time to finish anything after this onslaught of games. This is the first Christmas where I'm just thinking about holding on to my money just to cover the releases until March, haha.

Plus I hear it's short, which should help. Hopefully I'll have three more games on my beaten list (DSC, NSMBW, SH SM).

That's the racing robot frogs right? Yeah I was never hyped for that one.

Why would I play that if there's Mario Kart Wii!

Yakuza 3 completely nullifies ANYTHING else that comes out next year. GOW3, FFXIII, the english versions of HG/SS, ANYTHING will wait until I'm done with Yakuza. I've waited FAAAR too long for this.

Well, SMT: Strange Journey may pop in there, but still...

At least you've got great quality games all around, so going through yours will be a great experience.

I'm just hoping that I don't fall into the same problem that I always run into while trying to clear my backlog...

PLAYING MORE POKEMON.

haha.

Yeah...and I seems to just keep buying more...

I'm going to blame GAF for tempting me most of the time.
