toxicitizen Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 (edited) Only 20 games? And you call yourself a gamer?! I feel like Ethan usually makes a separate thread for these but I couldn't find last year's so whatever, posting it here. Asterisks indicate games I had already played before and italics are for games that were 2015 releases. I only marked those to better keep track of GOTY candidates but I ended up not writing anything up for our GOTY thread... I kinda skipped a lot of the major AAA releases this year, anyway. And fuck giving it to MGSV, so TitS SC probably wins by default. Either that or the Resident Evil HD Remaster. Everyone seems to have forgotten about it but it was so fucking good.

Pojodin Posted January 1, 2016 Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 That's a lot of games FLD! O: You got me thinking, so I checked some previous numbers to compare, and 20 is a pretty solid year for me. And the most I've beaten in a year since 2011. Coupled with my busiest non-gaming year to date (Trip to Spain, Chicago Comic Con, Final Bout 2, The Trip to Germany, The Packer games, the hand full of races and other training stuff), I'm actually surprised I completed that many. I played REmake thoroughly when it was released on GameCube. It was fantastic then, so I have no doubt the HD REmake was also spectacular. Bloodborne would have to be my game of the year for stuff released this year that I beat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMightyEthan Posted January 1, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2016 Alright, here comes my mega post. First up, all the games I beat: Only 18, it was a slow year. That's largely because of Destiny, Persona 4 Golden, and Fallout 4. P4G took me 95 hours on my first run, and I actually did a second run too so the real total is more like 150 hours, and then FO4 took 117 hours (and a month and a half) so that's a good chunk of my gaming time right there. I don't even want to know how much time I spent in Destiny this year. Fallout came very close to beating Dragon Age: Inquisition for the longest first-playthrough ever for me, but didn't quite get there. On average I spent 29.3 hours on each game, but the median is only 8.1 hours, so that average is heavily influenced by the few really long games on there. PS4 was my most-played platform by both hours and number of games, with 9 games and 316 hours. Xbox One was second for games, with 6, but third by hours (89). Though I only played one game on Vita it was P4G, which took 95 hours, so that by itself was enough to exceed the total of all my Xbox One games. Unsurprisingly, with only one game that took 95 hours, Vita wins for average hours spent on each game, with PS4 in second and PC in third (my only PC game being Black Flag at 20 hours). I was doing well on my backlog, with a general downward trend, bottoming out at 4 games, but then between you jerks and my family both being so generous, and Fallout 4 taking forever and building up a lot of games, it kind of exploded at the end of the year. On average a game was on my backlog for 4.2 months before being removed (this doesn't count games that are still on there), and my backlog games had an average playtime of 12.7 hours. Going into 2016 I have 19 games on my backlog, which is more than I even finished in 2015. However, one thing I'm happy about is that none of my backlog games are from before December 2014, so at least I don't have anything on there from years and years ago. I do feel bad about games from last year's Secret Santa still being on there though. I think I'm gonna tackle those first. The reason so many were added on 12/30 is because I don't add a game to the backlog if I get it while I'm playing another game until I finish the first game. Then any game I got that I don't immediately start goes on the backlog (so all but 1). 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, now that I think about it, I'm actually kinda surprised my number is so high this year. It's lower than last year but still pretty close even though I played virtually nothing but MGSV for about a month and a half in Sept/Oct and again spent basically all of November focused on TitS SC. Oh and I spent like another full month during the summer playing nothing but SpaceChem and Dustforce, and I still haven't even finished SpaceChem! I guess I ended up playing a lot of shorter games, which balanced it out a bit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
