Done!

Games that I've finished, or close enough not to make a real difference.

List items

• 

  1. Star Wars: TIE Fighter

  A fun little side story to the inter-movie Star Wars saga. Too bad about the Emperor.

• 

  1. The Typing of the Dead

  I needed a single continue on the final boss; otherwise, easy as pie.

• 

  1. Dash of Destruction

  That took...half an hour?

• 

  1. Wii Sports

  Done in the sense that I've played all the minigames and now have no desire to go back unless I'm playing with my nieces and nephews.

• 

  1. Wii Play

  45 minutes. Unlocked everything. Done and DONE.

• 

  1. Portal

  This was a triumph.

• 

  1. Half-Life 2: Episode Two

  Wow. That was harsh.

• 

  1. Half-Life 2: Episode One

  "Gordon?"

• 

  1. Half-Life 2

  BOOOOOOOOOOOOM!

• 

  1. Half-Life: Blue Shift

  Not bad for a bonus episode. Doesn't hold up as a full retail product, but it was a fun little three- or four-hour romp.

• 

  1. Half-Life: Opposing Force

  The final boss was a total cliche, but I thought the ending was cool.

• 

  1. Half-Life

  I actually did kill Nihilanth. Once. The other eight times I played this, I buggered off an hour into Xen.

• 

  1. No One Lives Forever 2: A Spy in H.A.R.M.'s Way

  Maxed out almost everything, too, I think.

• 

  1. The Operative: No One Lives Forever

  I wasn't expecting the smarmy American to be the final boss, actually (spoilers). The space station was confusing for a minute.

• 

  1. Assassin's Creed

  *Great* ending. Fantastic.

  Also, you people who can't kill 100 dudes without dying are pussies. Just sayin'.

• 

  1. Diablo II: Lord of Destruction

  Diablo's pink lightning. Need I say more? Though Act V was really cool.

• 

  1. Diablo

  Clickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclickclick....

  Okay, he's dead now. Moving on.

• 

  1. Gears of War

  General RAAM is a cock.

• 

  1. Max Payne 2: The Fall of Max Payne

  I didn't have the patience to get the "good" ending, but I've played through two or three times.

• 

  1. Max Payne

  Very well-executed game, from start to finish.

• 

  1. ESPN NHL 2K5

  The Montreal Canadiens won the President's Trophy and Stanley Cup in 2005. Sorry, spoiler alert.

• 

  1. World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade

  Our raiding guild broke up around Serpentshrine Cavern. It was for the best, I think.

• 

  1. Soulcalibur II

  I think I beat every character's story mode at least once. The only unlocks remaining are about half of the joke weapons.

• 

  1. Burnout 3: Takedown

  I think I got to around 94% completion before I said "fuck it," because I kept finishing 4th in these half-hour Grand Prixes due to catch-up logic suddenly sending me from 0:20 ahead to 0:15 behind in one crash. Good enough.

  Oh, and 100% in Crash Mode.

• 

  1. Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock

  Slash is a cheating motherfucker.

• 

  1. Crackdown

  Oh, Narrator, you sneaky bastard.

• 

  1. BioShock

  Genetically-modified Randian supermen are no match for me and my clunky-ass five-year-old PC, apparently.
