"RULES"

1. Respect each other and the gamekeeper(s) - this activity is a gift to the community, and jerks kill the fun. 2. Beat games. Proof is NOT required via an image, but lying is lame and you won't win anything for beating the most games. All you get is bragging rights. 3. It doesn't matter when you started the game - as long as you finish it this year, it counts. However, you cannot load up a finished save file and refight the final boss to get a clear. 4. If you beat a game and then post about it in the next calendar month, I will count that toward the current month. It gets convoluted trying to edit past documents, so remember that when playing. 5. DLC campaigns can count as a single clear for their respective game, so beating The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild and The Champion's Ballad counts as two clears: BOTW and BOTW DLC. Any further DLC completed for that game will be lumped into the first campaign. 6. If you are interested in badges, when you beat a game for one, include something like 'Counts towards badge X' OR 'Earns me badge X, first game was Y.' One particular badge requires proof to obtain, however. 7. All participating past gamekeepers are thanked with a medal: image

I’m not sure winning one race counts as beating the game, but this is an arcade game… I’ll let it slide in this case.

I beat Mega Man 2 .
[imgt w=2048 h=1536]https://i.imgur.com/...[/imgt]
Beaten on Difficult mode. The stages and Robot Masters are bizarrely easy. Then you reach Wily Castle and things get much harder—almost jarringly so. Shoutout to the Mecha Dragon that has elongated knockback on his projectiles (and only those ones) so that he can effortlessly knock you into the pit below. Honestly, half my playtime went toward that castle. It's a little crazy. But still a great game overall.

Updated! I was really off on the badge count, but everything should be fixed. I clearly have too much freetime on workbreaks if I'm beating that many 3DS games each week. And somehow I took an entire month between Mega Man 4 and 3... how in the world did that happen?

I just beat Shock Troopers for the 4th time now. I imported all of my PC games into Launchbox the other day and noticed that I had the PC port of this from Amazon Games so I figured I'd try that. It plays a little different as your 'credit' only earns you 1 health bar for a given character you select and I didn't do the 'team of 3' mode where I picked 3 players. So with that approach I cycled through each of the 8 characters and did okay with the faster ones and not so great with the 3-4 slower ones, which is how I've been playing before.
I also decided to try to switch the paths to the final boss. There are 3 and in my first 3 runs I did each one and this time I started in the Jungle and went to the Mountains when they give you the 1 chance, after like the 3rd stage. Anyhow doing that seemed to give me a new mission in-between the 2 paths, so for my 5th run I'll do yet another set to see if there's another in-between mission and if it's different. If so I might have to beat it 6 times to hit that final unique mission. I also beat the final boss with another person to get the 1 still shot for their unique 'victory screen'.
I do think I'll beat it the 5th time on my mini, so I need to get that hooked up.

5th of June, 39th overall, 12th
Tinykin
Likely really only counts toward Bear & Bird that I already have

Heard good things about this GP title and jumped into it the other night. It was addicting of sorts with me playing until 3AM the other night thanks to my feeling of, 'just do this one more task and be done'... only to keep doing tasks. It was an endearing and enjoyable title, though I didn't pay much attention to the oddball story and blew through much of the dialog you had to read - the aesthetic, art style and simple gameplay was the sauce. I ended up doing everything in the game except for collecting all of the pollen in 3 of 7 rooms b/c I didn't want to hunt for ~45 little bits to collect from ~7k total as some rooms have over 1k in them. But I found all the pollen in more than have of the rooms and found/did everything else.

Pokémon Brilliant Diamond

I enjoyed the remastered edition quite well for the most part. I just wish the global trade system was a bit more polished and fleshed out. The final Elite Four champion gave me a little run for my money too. Took me a few tries to beat her. Other than that it was another return to my early 20’s with this one. Next I think I’ll try out Arceus to see how the new Pokémon formula works.

I beat Pikmin 3's DLC: all 36 missions and boss rematches. For some annoying reason, purchased DLC on Wii U seems to only work on the one user profile that bought. My Pikmin 3 file was User 2, but only User 1 had access to all of it. Regardless, I beat each pack. There's a ton of content here, lemme tell ya, but I wasn't particular about getting a platinum score on every stage. I got two plats, a few golds, a buncha silvers, and plenty of bronzes. I'm just not a fan of multitasking with three groups of characters, so I can't make the best use of time. But I know quality when I see it, and the DLC for this game is certainly that!

Against all odds, I beat Sonic the Hedgehog with zero lives to spare.
[imgt w=640 h=853]https://i.imgur.io/6...[/imgt]
This game was like $2 at a garage sale last August, and now I’ve finally gotten around to playing it. Not a bad time once you get past Spring Yard Zone. This game is pretty guilty of reusing level geography—enough so that I questioned if I was replaying an area I’d previously finished multiple times. Spring Yard and Star Light Zone we’re the biggest offenders here.

I have to tiptoe through Sonic stages to survive, so a lot of the high speed fun is sucked out for me. But unlike the later games, this one was a pretty reasonable jaunt through just a few worlds, enough so to beat it in just two or three attempts. There’s no darn Death Egg Robot in this one, so I could actually beat it. (I like Sonic 2, for those asking, but I’ve never beaten its final boss. I’ve beaten Sonic 3 & Knuckles.)

After a bunch of research and asking around, I downloaded and beat Grimace’s Birthday (“originally” GBC).
[imgt w=640 h=853]https://i.imgur.io/k...[/imgt]
McDonald’s is currently celebrating the anniversary of one of its old mascots, apparently, and they tasked a retro game developer to make a free tie-in game that actually runs natively on Game Boy Color hardware. It even has a “please insert this into a colored Game Boy” screen like GBC games often had. The attention to detail making this a faithful retro game is admirable.

It’s a very short platformer that has running and jumping stages and skateboarding ones. Grimace face plants too often on his board, but the game’s over so fast, you’ll barely notice. The music goes harder than it needs to, which is funny. I was a tad distracted every time a character used modern slang or 2020s vernacular (“I can’t even with you, Hamburglar”), since it’s anachronistic. This game does a good job advertising the Grimace Birthday Shake, the collectibles scattered across the stages and undoubtedly a delicious treat at your local fast food establishment. The game’s greatest challenge comes in the form of the Score Attack mode—collecting all 20 birthday presents in the labyrinth as the timer ticks down can get pretty intense. Somehow I got 32/20 presents on my last run…? Weird.

Either way, this obvious advertisement game had a lot of soul poured into it, and the fact that I can play it on a modded 3DS makes it way cooler. I’m quite happy I played it! Now go try it yourself if you have the means.

The beats just keep on coming! I beat Gargoyle’s Quest II: The Demon Darkness (originally NES) at work.

I played Gargoyle’s Quest for GB last year, and it kinda stunk. The screen was too small to display everything it should’ve, the text was poorly translated and barely fit on screen, it was far too open-ended, and there were too many identical enemy encounters. This NES sequel is an improvement. It’s far more linear, the screen shows you enough to play well, and the translation is decent. I had more fun and beat it far quicker. It’s no must-play, but it made a nice reprieve from Mega Man.

Just my 11th clear this year on 6/16.

Might and Magic book I

I do not envy anyone that had to hand draw out each and every map for this game. Different times for sure. It had to have taken hundreds upon hundreds of hours to beat this when it first came out. Auto mapping was the best thing to ever hit the cRPG genre! I received a party score of 420,326 upon completion. This was difficult to get into at first, and the difficulty is unforgiving at times. The classic grind is completely necessary here!

My first impressions with Mirror's Edge: Catalyst weren't great. I'm a big fan of the original, in spite of its flaws, and I was thrilled to see the franchise called out as Frank's Game of the Month; but the lore reboot, the clunky platforming, and the cramming of a zillion unnecessary modern gaming conventions landed like a boulder. After filling out the Movement skill tree (ugh...) and reluctantly accepting the existence of the MAG, I was starting to really crave my playthroughs and the parkour zen that the series does such a great job of cultivating. I miss the original, though, especially its simpler aesthetic and dreamy soundtrack.

You played it on an EA (Origin)? What exactly is that? How should I classify it on the Google Doc?

I beat Mega Man (originally NES). At long last, I'm done with all six games on Mega Man Legacy Collection.

I was under the impression that Mega Man 1 was a bad game, being the first in a series that was revolutionized by its second game. Turns out I was wrong! I quite liked Mega Man 1, even if it has some slippery feet and only six Robot Masters. The Magnet Beam is a nifty gadget, the Yellow Devil is a decent challenge without being the brutal beast I'd heard about, and the music and graphics were better than I'd thought. Color me surprised!

I'd rank the first six games as follows: 6>4>2>1>3>5. 6 feels like the culmination of the NES series (ignoring 9 and 10 since those are technically Wii games) while 5 feels rushed and uninspired.

Just put it down as PC.
