Right. okay, let's see: Space Harrier II Sonic 1 & 2 Golden Axe 1, 2 & 3 (1 & 2 were done with my boy when I got home from work) Biohazard Battle Columns 1, 3 & Mean Bean Machine were done to death playing with my boy Shadow Dancer Gunstar Heroes Bonanza Bros The only reason we didn't play through the 3 Streets of Rage games was because we played them a few months back on his Mega Drive Mini. I played but didn't finish: ESWAT Fatal Labyrinth Sonic Spinball Dynamite Headdy Kid Chameleon Comix Zone Altered Beast Alien Storm Vectorman A lot of the others are shitey RPG things that nearly made me vomit when I started playing them and Toejam & Earl was made by someone who was genuinely disturbed so that doesn't count. Whatever the ruling is, I'll abide by it, and I ask that the fact I even admitted to buying it in the first place knowing I was pretty full be shown as an example of my good character. I am also willing to use this as a learning experience not to buy any more Far Cry games. Edited by wuntyate at 22:01:12 22-02-2021 |

You at least finished the quality Megadrive games. The others are definitely less worthy of our limited gaming time.
Do we let him off maybe with a punishment Challenge instead, fellow Pigwhippers? -

Registered 15 years agoCan I still join? I need help. I failed last year but lasted reasonably well and I’ve massively fallen off the wagon. If I’m allowed in I’d like to add:
Skyrim (yeah, does this take up 2 slots??)
Kingdom Hearts 3
Ace Combat 7
Tekken 7 (complete story mode) -

Registered 7 years agoThe LAST thing I'm going to add in my defence, is that I am not going to install it before I've finished Days Gone. That's not made up. I genuinely bought it because it was £15 and, whilst it may very well be again, I'm not sure it will be down that low for a while.
That's it. I think that... I'll just check my notes... Yeah. I'm done.

Registered 15 years agoI’ve a question.
Can I buy a PlayStation 5* if all my slots are filled?
The plan would be to purchase it but not unbox it until I have a free slot (which would inevitably be taken up by AstroBot**)
*let’s face it, the chances are slim
**it’s a free game, so I wouldn’t be purchasing a game, I’d be purchasing a console that just happens to come with a free game.

Registered 12 years agoLooks like wunty gave quite a lot of games a good go.
22 games played or completed out of 50. A reasonable effort.
I put it to Judge DuckBreaker that these efforts may be worthy for clemency for him.
In this instance...

Registered 13 years agoI'd say Wunty gave the MD collection a fair crack. The lack of information until after the fact sets a dubious Precident however. I'd set them a fair challenge and uphold their status for now.
The thread is about getting value for money and enjoying your purchases after all and with the exception of Far Cry 5 it feels like that has been happening -

The pig is a harsh mistress. Maybe if you ask the scalpers to delete Astro Bot before they send it to you might be ok.

Registered 7 years agoLet me know what the consensus is, oh kind and forgiving people.
I mean, let's be honest, I'm not exactly going to lose any sleep over failing it (again) but at the same time I would actually like to do it this year and think that it will have a positive effect on my relationship with gaming if I can just get myself trained to show restraint. If one can see over this slight fudging of events then I do solemly swear to be a VERY good boy from here on in. -

Registered 15 years ago@warlockuk You need to cull that backlog. Pick out twenty games that you realistically will be able to play and finish and resign the rest of them. Also, stop pishing money away on games you aren't going to play. -

Registered 17 years agoIt's not really about clearing the backlog (although that's a potential side effect) it's more about not continuing to add to the backlog over and over and over and over. Love the games - they're to be properly played, not just collected on messed with for 20 minutes. .gif)

That said, I have been somewhat better - I've taken to doing video reviews of stuff like Humble Bundles, and making sure I play all of them to work out what I think is shit and then I go back to actually finish the ones I like. Problem I have is I'm currently tending to work in my downtime instead of gaming or anything else.
Currently I'm playing Cyberpunk 2077 and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order and need to actually complete Super Mario Odyssey. Everything else is ad hoc with me grabbing a bunch at a time to play through and flit between. Believe it or not I'm actually getting through that list - Baldur's Gate 2 is still on there, to my utter shame. -

Yeah I'm doing that as I go. Getting 2-3 green stars per level generally, and I'll no doubt go back and mop some more up once I finish. (I have played right through it on Wii U, and I think I at least got all stars and yellow flags, if possibly not all stamps.)). -

I am giving you a last minute reprieve as your completion rate for the MD games was more reasonable than your dodgy initial presentation suggested. Talk about digging yourself a hole to fall in!
But my beady eye is watching you. If you listen carefully you might just hear a sinister , distant quacking...

In your case, if you are able to snap up a new PS5 at RRP, then no slot is needed until you start a new game on it. If you are paying some scalper top dollar, then you deserve a big pigwhip failure for such foolishness. -

It's the curse of any game that feels like it needs a lot of time - I put it away for when I "have time" and that time becomes 20 years. Meanwhile absolute toss that you can dive in and out of gets 20-40 hours :/ -
