These are games I've finished (or done enough that I can say I'm basically done) in the year 2014.

I beat this one late 2009 or early 2010, but I recently picked it up again (Ultimate Edition on PS3) and started it up again, this time as a rogue (originally a warrior). This only counts the main campaign and the Darkspawn and Leliana DLC currently, but I recently finished Awakening so I'll be starting the Golem and Witch Hunt DLC soon. EDIT: Finished both of the DLC that I stated I still needed to complete. Now I'm effectively done with my Rogue playthrough. Still need to play through as a mage at some point.
Started this up right after my rogue playthrough in Origins. This was the first time I played Awakening and I wasn't disappointed.
Finished: January 22 (PS3) I didn't think it was nearly as bad as some people thought it was. I enjoyed my time with it at least. The story seemed to be more of a set up for events in Inquisition and that's a bit disappointing, and I wish you traveled to more areas further out from Kirkwall (outside of DLC, which I also bought and completed) I think I could recommend it, especially for a cheap price.
Finished: January 23 (PS+ Freebie) Short and simple, a bit shocking and pretty sad. It's a game that lasted just long enough and didn't overstay its welcome. Not sure if it would have been in my top ten last year (is that now considered beating a dead horse at this point?) but I think it's a game worth playing.
Finished: January 31 (PS3) I'm noticing a pattern in most of the games I've finished so far this year. Originally bought this during a sale over the summer of 2013, finally played it co-op with a friend and had a better time than the first time I started up the game when I first bought it.
Finished: February 13 (Steam) I've been sitting on this game for a few months now, and finally decided to dig my heels in and finally finish it. I really enjoyed this game and hope that there's more to come (outside of the movie that's apparently being made according to the game's wiki on Giant Bomb). I still have three achievements to get (beat the game on a harder difficulty, choose a different option in one side quest and get four stars in every challenge arena) but that will come another day.
72 Hour Mode Completed: February 14, Overtime Unlocked Overtime Completed: February 16 Honestly I'm not sure I could/would have completed this without playing it in co-op over PSN. A nice little "what-if" with everyone's favorite journalist. This was also my first time finishing Dead Rising 2 in any capacity.
Finished/S-Ranked: February 17 (Steam Free to Play) Really I could just copy my Steam review verbatim. Short, very pretty in spots, and a wonderful use of "The Death of Aasse." Recommended.
Beat for the first time: February 20 Difficulty: Drizzle (Easy) Single Player Class: Acrid This felt great. I pulled a Patrick Klepek and almost beat the game yesterday when I made it to the final form of the final boss, but snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Today, made it to the final boss again with the Acrid class I unlocked on yesterday's run and finally beat the boss.
Date I decided I had played enough: February 24 (PS+ Freebie) I co-oped this game with a friend of mine and we played through all of the "story" missions except Big Oil. We got to the end of that and failed, we both decided to hang it up after that. I enjoyed some of the missions in the game, but a few were a bit infuriating. I imagine if we had a full team of players that knew what was to be done (instead of two people and two computer controlled allies) things would have been smoother, but alas.
