Day 23 - Last Game You Downloaded

Last game I downloaded?


Umm, not entirely sure, but I believe it was The Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning, an Xbox original.


Not a terrible game, but not the great either... I would definitely class it mediocre. I bought this game on Xbox Live a couple of years ago, played it, and just downloaded it again recently. It definitely was not what I was expecting when I bought it, with Elijah Wood as Spyro and David Space as Sparx... it kind of ruined the legacy of this series. Spyro definitely did not survive the jump to next-gen consoles. =(

Day 22 - Last Game You Bought

Last game I bought?


Lego Batman! + Pure (which just came with it)


So far, the game has been fun. What I would expect from the Lego game franchise but all the more better because its Batman! The only drawback is that it has that little piss-ass Robin. Other than that, solid game.

Btw, Pure came with it as well. Not really my thing, but fun from what I have played. Bonus game for free is still good. At least it is better than Kung Fu Panda!

Day 21 - A Favourite Character

A favourite character? There are so many.... how can I choose?


I can't say no to Donkey Kong. From the original Donkey Kong, through the Donkey Kong Country series, Donkey Kong 64 and Mario Kart, to modern day Donkey Kong Country Returns, he is just such a iconic game figure and one of my favourites.

Day 20 - A Game You Have Played Countless Times

A game I have played countless times?



That would be Super Mario Bros 3!


I freakin' love this game. One of my all time favs and I have played this one soo much, I can't even count the number of times I've played it. MARIO FTW!

Day 19 - A Game You Have Never Finished

A game I haven't finished? There are lots, sadly...


But one that I have never finished is Sonic the Hedgehog.


And I probably never will, sadly. To completely finish this game, you have to sit down for a long time and play this game continually, due to not being able to save your game. Not being able to save your game really limits how far you can get, because most of the time, I don't have all day to sit and play this game. It's the sad truth, because I would love to complete Sonic. I usually just get to the Labyrinth Zone, and then I realize how long I've been playing and stop playing. Shame.

Day 18 - Best Wii Game

Best Wii Game?


Donkey Kong Country Returns!


Bringing back this classic from the SNES reminds me of my childhood and how difficult some of the levels really were. As Donkey Kong is one of my favourite characters, I was really looking forward to this game and it definitely delivered! Thanks Nintendo from bringing this back!

Day 17 - Best Gameboy Game

Best GameBoy game?


Pokemon FireRed!


Taking the original Pokemon Red and updating it with better graphics as well as adding in some extra stuff at the end of the game is great. Pokemon FTW!

Day 16 - Favourite SuperHero Game

Favourite superhero game? This one is easy, although it may not be come next September...


Batman: Arkham Asylum is easily my favourite superhero video game.


It captures Batman's character perfectly, as well as each villain, especially the Joker. The insane asylum and eerie feeling the game gives off create this perfect dark atmosphere that makes you feel like you really are the Batman. They finally got a Batman video game right.
Come September 2011, hopefully Batman: Arkham City lives up to its predecessor and becomes my new favourite superhero videogame. That game can't come fast enough.

Day 15 - Best Xbox 360 Game

Best Xbox 360 game? There are soooo many games, it is so hard to choose.


I'm gonna go with Halo Reach.


The game is really hard, which is a good thing; they revamped the multiplayer, making it a lot better than Halo 3; and the game just looks really pretty. And it wraps up the Halo series pretty well.

Day 14 - An Addictive Game

An addictive game, you say?

I'll get back to you on that, haha.
