Games You've Beat in 2011

Assassin's Creed II

 

I've "officially" beaten the game. I've know about the ending for a long time, but now I've earned it. The only stand out things I didn't like were some climbing glitches and the almost "precision" climb-jumping stuff. What I mean to say is that sometimes Ezio would act as though he were at an edge, though there was no edge in sight. A perfect example would be when I started a mission on the ground, but after the cutscene, Ezio stood there and would only "peer over" if I tried to move him. Had to have him jump to move from his place.

 

The "precision" stuff is like when you're running on rooftops or hanging platforms, but for some reason you'll end up slightly off and immediately fall. Gametrailers mentioned this in their review for Brotherhood, and last night it happened as I was about to jump down to the final boss without "being detected." I don't find much fault with it as these goof ups happen, like, 5% of the time.

 

All-in-all, very excellent.

Ocarina of Time 3D.

 

I've started the game a couple of times on the N64 and Gamecube. I really enjoyed it but I don't think it stood out as better than any of the other games in the series, maybe you had to play it at the time as it was such a leap from what else was out there at the time. I'm glad I can say I've played it now though as I think it's one of those games that everyone should play.

 

I thought the 3D remake was very good too not just the 3D which I loved and really felt added to the experience but also the improvement in textures which you don't really appreciate until you look at some of the N64 videos online - it's quite shocking!

 

Going to have a go at the original Zelda next since I just got it for free on 3DS so I can see where it all started.

Deus Ex: Human Revolution.

 

Overall it was pretty great. I don't think it quite reached the bar set by the first one, but it was definitely worthy of the Deus Ex name.

 

I thought the first half was better than the second half, though. Story wasn't as conspiracy-heavy as I'd hoped, but it was still good enough.

 

I could probably come up with a few more minor complaints, but for now I'll leave it as that and think on it for a while. If I have anything to add I'll post in the Deus Ex thread.

Finished Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story. Was at the save before the last battle for ages, so I decided to finish it today!

 

Absolutely loved it, great fun. The script was so great, so many little funny touches, Bowser was badass too! Those rare touch screen battles where you controlled Bowser in his Giant form needed to be in there more, they were a delight to play. He needs more of his own games! aww and that ending screen.....

 

 

An injured Bowser lying on his bed, gets a wrapped present from Princess Peach. He tells his minions to go away and fix the castle, looks around making sure no one is in the room with him....and opens it.

Well tonight I beat and completed Kirby's Epic Yarn. I have to say this was a really awesome game. The level design and controls were the usual Nintendo AAA. Seriously, no one can create a platformer like NIntendo. I'm also glad to see it was kept in its proper 2D and while I look forward to the new Kirby Wii game later this year I did feel that the Yarn play mechanics were right at home in a Kirby game.

 

So this is officially the Tenth game I've beat this year. :D
