Last game you finished and your thoughts

I believe this had a varient on the old Ngamer forums once. Anyway, the premise is simple, you finish a game for any system and then come in here to post your thoughts if you wish to do so.

And without further ado, I'll kick things off as I finished Persona 3 Portable not too long ago for what was my fourth time I believe. Still just as good as I remembered when I played it a year or so ago. Both endings really feel like a kick in the mouth though since

Spoiler:

Anyway, my previous view was that it was a ten out of ten game, and that hasn't changed. I wouldn't change a thing about it, except adding in The Answer.

What fabulous timing, Athrun! I beat the Champion in Pokémon Ruby not ten minutes ago. The third generation never clicked properly for me. In 2005 I bought a GBA SP and a copy of Emerald, which got me back into gaming, but I remember disliking the second half of the game (well, from Fortree City onwards). Ruby has made me accept it more. I'm only really playing it to get a Rayquaza into my copy of Pearl, to be honest, but it's been a blast - particularly earlier, when I was playing through Emerald for the GNamer Nuzlocke challenge!

I finished Paper Mario: Sticker Star shortly after the New Year kicked in. I could technically "complete" Super Mario Galaxy 2 right now, because the Bowser level is available and I could go and kick his butt, but I haven't got all the Power Stars up to that point (damn the Fleet Glide Galaxy!!!!!), and I'm well aware that there will be more of the little beggars to pick up once I defeat Bowser for the first time.

I watched the anime of that (based on the route where he ends up with Saber). It was bad. I mean, really bad. It played out like a hackneyed adolescent fantasy. I can only imagine that it was worse with the inclusion of sex scenes.

I haven't finished anything recently, due to not having much to play and then EVERYTHING BEING RELEASED AT ONCE. Check back here later on next months for some of my typically hilarious musings.

Probably Rayman Jungle Run. PastaGames (Maestro: Jump in Music!) did a bloomin' good job at making each level feel fresh and build upon the last. It's a sound auto-runner too, and it's a great stopgap between Rayman Origins and Rayman Legends.

I finished WWE 13's story mode, and considering it was my first wrestling game since the PS2's Smackdown: Shut Your Mouth, I enjoyed it!

Trine 2 on wii U

Fun game though I expect it's better played with two other people rather than in singleplayer.

Fire Emblem: Path of Radience
Cracking game, though they didn't have drag the ending out by revealing text at the slowest speed ever and not letting me press A to skip through it. Also seeing Rolf as my second best and Boyd as my third whilst Oscar was dead was pretty sad

Tomb Raider it was very good

DuckTales on the original Game Boy for me! I finished it last Sunday, having had it for years and never really bothering with it. It's a fun little platformer, and it makes me wish that Capcom (and other cracking companies like Konami) still had the ability to make quirky platformers like it, licenced or not. Thank goodness for WayForward!

Kirby's Adventure Wii. Surprisingly there was a lot more to this than I thought, you could easily play through the stages and quickly get past it all without much trouble (except from a late difficulty spike) but attemtping to get all the gears as you go through adds a nice bit of replayability to it, not tried the minigames but there aren't many of them and the extra mode after completion is a little cheap so the reward for getting them all isn't great.

I've been meaning to pick up Kirby's Adventure for ages, glad it sounds pretty decent then.

New Super Mario Bros. U in 4 player mode. Trying to get 4 people through the "not the last level story-wise but really the last level you'll get to" is an impossibility; really 3 have to bubble and a super-pro runs like dilly-o, but this was LOL-filled from start to finish. Hooray.

Sly Cooper: Thieves in Time. Good solid platforming action coupled with the usual amusing Sly cast and story.

You've finished it already?! Mine's not even likely to have arrived by tomorrow.

Ninja Gaiden 3, required a lot of button mashing and frustration (I eventually just switched to 'hero' mode so I wouldn't die ) But it is really good, gorey fun for all the family! AND it has a compelling story to dissuade you from skipping those delightfully done cutscenes AND ryu has a costume that has him run around topless, albeit covered in an insane amount of blood...

:witch: best buy

Bioshock infinite, it didn't live up to expectations a lot of things I didn't like,
To short I think it took me 10hrs
It now plays like a proper FPS
The twist wasn't that great either

Wasn't the original Bioshock about that length anyway? I don't remember it taking me that long to beat it.

I think the 1st was about 20hrs, but will double check on the site how long tk beat.

HLTB avg of the 1st is just over 14hr, I still reckon it took me 20 ish as I took ny time and looked for loot etc. im trying to work out in my head actually I might of done infinite in 8 maybe even less than that

@masofdas: so I was right about it taking 10 hours after all

Don't you find it amusing that Bioshock Infinite lasts ten hours?
