I debate whether it has been done on the majority of days in all those years.

Also 2014? I'm not sure you can judge a year 'n' until 3 months into year 'n+1.'

And surely we should implement a grading system.

Completed Pokemon Thunder Yellow (GBC) after feeling nostalgic from that Twitch plays Pokemon Red thing. Thunder Yellow is a hacked rom where you can catch all the pokemon, without trading with other real people, I had every intention of collecting them all but the games getting a bit flaky now and keeps jumping back to 10 minutes back in time for some reason. Still I completed all the gym badges, beat the elite four and blue and caught all the 3 legendary pokemon and mew and mewtwo, so I've played a good session.

And that's number 13 done, I'm 25% through my finish list.

Currently playing through Ass Crud 50 Pirate flavour, struggling to play more of this despite putting in a fair bit of time in already and despite I've managed 100% in all the last titles except the first. Hopefully I'll be able to power through the main story and call it a day.
Also playing Rayman oranges and Rayman jungle run thingy Saturnalian finished recently.
Oh and the new Phoenix Wright game. Oh and I started The Swapper.

Hopefully that lot will be done by the end of the month.

So was No. 10 Dark Souls 2? Nope. Just completed Phoenix Wright: Trials and Tribulations. It occurred to me that now I have a 3DS I can go back to the final of the trilogy - that I had to abandon halfway through when my DS broke.

It's pretty hard picking up a game after a break of 3 or so years, but it was still ace. Playing Threes and Apollo Justice on my commute theses days (but distracted by a book).

To be honest I've not played much of it, but it seemed like business as usual to me. It sure is gorgeous though; that burning tree at the beginning looked fantastic. I'm not sure I'm too impressed by the whole mobile-phone/3 Star approach to each level though. I like a strong narrative in games, unless they're supposed to be score attack or whatever (natch), so it's a little jarring playing a GoW game where the game expects you not to take an interest in the story.

I might go back and mop up the two outstanding collectible related achievements in Far Cry but the main game is done with all the camps and skills and whatnot done so I've got a pretty high completion rate already. It was very good, but I was starting to get a bit bored by the end because there's so much game to the game.

Yeah, a proper treat.

It's all based on MC Escher monuments, and you turn the screen to allow your little character to move around on the surfaces.

It's also really cute, and just the right side of tricky to work out without being frustrating or having to look up a walkthrough.

Takes probably a couple of hours to complete, but you probably won't do it all in one go anyway.

Do recommend though.

Don't Move is an odd meta not-really-a-game game that initially looks to have some interesting secrets but turns out not to. Which is a bit disappointing. There is some currently unexplained stuff in there but it seems to be unexplained because the dev hasn't bothered to implement anything around it yet, which is bullshit obviously.
