Added last night:

Rescue: The Embassy Mission (NES)

Super Smash Bros. Melee (GC) in Adventure Mode. Noticed that I also beat it in Classic mode in January, so I suppose it should have already been on my list. :ponder:

And just beat Sonic Advance this morning on the train. :)

 

Pretty good game, with fantastic music - but it took me over a year to beat because I kept getting frustrated with some annoyingly difficult bosses and the horrible interface (One example: on game over the game essentially resets - back to the unskippable, interminable splash screens :x). So I would drop it for a few months before coming back to it. Anyway, fun stuff overall despite a few missteps.

Same on the NES. I just love Rainbow Islands :)

 

Currently playing through Blazing Angels (Wii)

 

How is it?

Currently playing through Blazing Angels (Wii)

 

How is it?

I haven't put too much time into it, just a few hours. On my (non-HD) TV, it looks pretty good. I don't really like the motion controls, but there are a few standardish control schemes that work fine.

 

The gameplay seems very tight so far, fairly similar to Crimson Skies, which I loved. On the other hand, the transitions are just terrible; sloppy programming everywhere - the voice cues are awful: guys talk over each other, say wrong things at the wrong time, there are odd pauses.

 

I just spent an hour replaying the same mission (#3) over and over, unsuccessfully, so I'm a little frustrated right now. But I don't have the instruction manual so, after reading a FAQ online just now, I realize that there were a few key features I was missing! :roll: :dunce:

 

I don't know if I'd buy it; it was given to me. But I'm having fun with it.

And after playing it on/off for almost a year, my wife and me finally beat Super Mario Galaxy coop style.

 

Overall it's the first 3D Mario I really like. I agree with everyone else regarding the camera issues though.

Add Castlevania: Symphony of the Night to my list. It's the PSP version that's bundled with Dracula X Chronicles. I also beat Crisis Core on the hard mode, I beat Red Alert 2 and Yuri's revenge both, and both sides of the original C&C along with the Covert Ops but not the Special Ops. I beat the main game of C&C on my Saturn and did the Covert Ops on the computer. The PS1 version simply runs too slow to be playable, and I didn't feel like doing it in 3D on my Nintendo.

Just finished Disaster - Day of Crisis. I got it as Christmas gift and couldn't put it down since :)

 

Amazing game, close to perfection for an interactive movie. Forget the silly reviews. If you ever wanted to be the Hero in a blockbuster Disaster/Action movie, this is the best you can get :thumbsup:
