Games You Finished in 2025

[Yousef]

I'm sorry to say, but my list of unfinished games just gets longer and longer.

You and me both man. I’m starting to feel either my tastes are narrower than I give them credit for or I’m harder to impress now compared to before.

 

[Swerve]

Suikoden 1 & 2 - Vampire Survivor- Eldin Ring - kartia world of fate - tactics ogre - Romancing Saga 2 remake - Gundam Breaker 4 - Armored Core 6 - Persona 1 - MH Wilds - Ogre Battle MBQ - Star Ocean 2 Remaster. Oh and MGS Peace Walker.

 

[Ikagura Ikagura]

And I've finished Pilotwings SNES then 64.

I've also done NES TMNT, Battletoads and Battlemaniacs (hard games but still fun).

Kero Blaster on the Switch (really nice run 'n gun by the same guy behind Cave Story) and Klonoa's Wii Remake.

I've also done the Battletoads of the GB and I've started Battletoads in Ragnarok Land as well as the 2020 game yet I've gotten a bit bored so I took a pause with the franchise as the first is just the NES game but on the GB and the other while being nice is a bit of a repetitive beat'em up (shame since it was a long awaited return for the franchise).

So I ended up doing Wonderboy the Dragon's Trap, Wonderboy in Monster Land and Wonderboy 1 on the SMS (I would probably do Monster World IV so I would basically have done every games in the main franchise, ignoring the reskins and Adventure Island games).

PS: Oh and I'm playing in every levels with every characters in Smash 4 Wii U so I would experience every differences with Smash Ultimate.

 

[PurpleShoes]

I beat Sans in Undertale, I beat Sans in Undertale, and I beat Sans in Undertale.
Using a Neo Geo CD Pad!

 

[Hourai]

Finished Deltarune chapter 2, Snowgrave route this time. Haven't played the game since Toby released the chapter a while back, and it was fun getting into it again. Jevil was a lot of fun, and so was Spamton Neo. Until I learned you have act commands to use TP on. At which point I just threw him to the mat like he's a jobber. Also, chapter 1's violence ending (where Susie deals with King instead of the subjects overthrowing him) is a lot better than the nonviolent ending, since it completes Susie's arc for the chapter.

For my thoughts on Snowgrave specifically...the ~*trauma*~ of the route wasn't as good as I'd like (I feel I could write better), but that's fine. It's enough to get ideas cooking, and the abuse Kris puts Noelle through is great for my soul. I'm rather curious how Toby is going to handle the next chapter, and any possible route divergence. Will be exciting, depending on how much changes between normal and Snowgrave.

Probably gonna play more Birth by Sleep while I wait for the next two chapters. Just beat Braig as Terra.

[Ikagura Ikagura]

I've also done the Battletoads of the GB and I've started Battletoads in Ragnarok Land as well as the 2020 game yet I've gotten a bit bored so I took a pause with the franchise as the first is just the NES game but on the GB and the other while being nice is a bit of a repetitive beat'em up (shame since it was a long awaited return for the franchise).

I should try finally finishing Battletoads 2020 but I fear I'll get bored of the series...

So I ended up doing Wonderboy the Dragon's Trap, Wonderboy in Monster Land and Wonderboy 1 on the SMS (I would probably do Monster World IV so I would basically have done every games in the main franchise, ignoring the reskins and Adventure Island games).

Maybe I'll wait a bit before doing MW IV. I don't like doing more than three games in a row in the same franchise or else I'd saturate.

PS: Oh and I'm playing in every levels with every characters in Smash 4 Wii U so I would experience every differences with Smash Ultimate.

I'm done with that. I only have 8-Players Smash mode left. I'd probably do 3DS for Smash Run.



I have finished Doom 2016 on the Switch yesterday, it ran decently for the hardware. I'll finally tackle Eternal really soon as my PC is powerful enough. Somehow I'm not that interested in The Dark Ages and I'll wait for DLCs or for a big sale for now.

 

[WesternYokai]

Finished Dragon's Dogma II this weekend. Really good game but nothing compared with the first one, still one of my favorite games ever.

Now I want to do the platinum trophy, there's like 3-4 very annoying trophies but let's goo

 

[snes9x]

Kid Icarus Uprising would have been an all-timer were it not for the controls (they don't ruin the game but they're far less than ideal); as it stands it's just pretty good...perhaps too ambitious for its hardware. I liked that there were Smash-esque trophies that used a system not far removed from Melee (using coins - in this case eggs - to increase the percentage chance of getting a new trophy). The plot was surprisingly good but the dialog was too quippy and self-referential for my tastes. I would abso.utely love a remaster or, better yet, sequel. Solid B

 

[Hourai]

Beat Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep. Turns out I had to do the strategy reserved exclusively for bad RPGs: level grinding. Because I was dealing like, probably one or two points of damage, otherwise. I probably have some positive thoughts on the game, but they're presently buried underneath the wasted potential and some of the worst bosses I've fought in quite some time.

It's nice having a female protagonist, though. Even if she was hit with the misogyny beam. Should look through my games for something else with a female protagonist that isn't either a mute self-insert with the personality of a table corner, or isn't placed alongside a more important male protagonist so that men will actually buy the game.

 

[Taukyrie]

I beat the Hero Story of Sonic Adventure 2.

I was doing a playthrough as a stream for my personal Discord server because my boyfriend found out I never played it before, and he wanted me to play his favorite Sonic game. A lot of the levels are really fun, except for Crazy Gadget.

I did finish the story mode for Mario Party Jamboree. It's fine for what it is, nothing to write home about, though.

 

[Theriise]

Kathy Rain 2: Soothsayer
(Long anticipated follow up game!!)
Death mark 2
(The horror is ramped down in this one)
Ace angler for the switch
(No longer have to try and try and try levels again when I do 50 damage instead of my well earnt 999)
Yurukill
(I had fun in this vis novel shmup cross over.)
Digaea 7
(I did my time in the grind mines)
Doraemon story of seasons 2
(Plays like a Doraemon anime movie, I wish they did more to distinguish it from the first game.)
Final fantasy theatrhythm, final bar line.
(One day when I finish every video game ever made and rise up to gaming valhalla, I will take this with me.)
Unavowed
(Point and click, one of those games that stays with you in your heart.)

[Taukyrie]

I briefly mentioned it, but I finished Valkyrie Profile Lenneth today.

Like although I got Ending B, I did genuinely enjoy the stories behind the Einherjar and the little of what has to do with the A Ending that I've seen. Like I really like what I've seen of Lenneth and Lucian's relationship so far.

However, I really found a lot of the platforming annoying and at the same time I'm hesitant to do a Hard Mode playthrough because of a certain difficult boss I would have to face during the end game of that playthrough and the fact that every character would start from level 1 in the game when I recruit them.

I do recommend the game, though, just know that the platforming is not that good imo.

 

[funkyrol]

This year?

Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening Remake - I hibernated this since getting it for the Switch back in 2023, I completely forgot I was quarter done lol

Metal Gear Solid - I went back to this coz I was studying Yoji Shinkawa's artstyle. It helps that I play the actual game to really understand the aesthetic Shinkawa and Hideo Kojima were doing on this game.

Disaster Report 2: Raw Danger! - I have finished this a few time before, but never completed all their connecting paths until last March. I used an old FAQ guide tho, they're pretty missable coz those time-windows are pretty tight (especially when you play the schoolgirl and the taxi driver)

 

[Ikagura Ikagura]

I should try finally finishing Battletoads 2020 but I fear I'll get bored of the series...

Finished that game and Battletoads + Double Dragons but I'll leave that franchise for a while. The Arcade game could wait.

Maybe I'll wait a bit before doing MW IV. I don't like doing more than three games in a row in the same franchise or else I'd saturate.

I haven't touched Wonderboy since...

I'm done with that. I only have 8-Players Smash mode left. I'd probably do 3DS for Smash Run.

I got bored so I don't plan on touching back on Smash for a while. Maybe SSE in Project Plus during summer?

I have finished Doom 2016 on the Switch yesterday, it ran decently for the hardware. I'll finally tackle Eternal really soon as my PC is powerful enough. Somehow I'm not that interested in The Dark Ages and I'll wait for DLCs or for a big sale for now.

I've finished Doom Eternal but I haven't bought the two DLCs. Too expensive imo.

 

[RetroDrew]

I've played through quite a lot of games so far this year:
Dragon Quest 3 HD 2-D Remake, THPS 1+2, THPS 3 OG (in preperation for 3+4 Remaster), Claire Obscure Expedition 33, Doom The Dark Ages, Parodius Da!, Gokujou Parodius, Jikkiyou Oshiberi Parodius, Sexy Parodius (I'm currently taking a break from editing a review of the Parodius Portable Collection for PSP), Parasite Eve, Steam Hearts: Saturn Tribute Re-release, Clock Tower Rewind, and this one is up for debate since it's a live service game but I did roll credits on Zenless Zone Zero season 1. That's 14 Games so far, Im counting THPS 1+2 as 2 separate campaigns

 

[bigstinkie]

You and me both man. I’m starting to feel either my tastes are narrower than I give them credit for or I’m harder to impress now compared to before.

i think this a normal thing with age. i think a lot would refer to it as not narrowing taste but rather refined taste. not refined as in hoity-toity wine upon your lips, but rather you, at this point, are familiar with your preferences in the medium, so you may find yourself quicker to judge if you will or will not like a game, and subsequently cease playing it

[Ikagura Ikagura]

I've just finished Pseudoregalia, I've done the full game in one session. I'm surprising myself on that one.

I cannot wait until The Big Catch, Aeromachina and Lunistice 1.5's release. Technical 3D platformers are really back.

Pseudoregalia, the best 3D platformer I've played, since A Hat In Time. And I need more of it! Someone mod all Super Mario levels, just so I could play them in Pseudoregalia.

I should try AHIT someday. I hope we'll get more platformer even without being collectathons.

Also I forgot to say I've finished Severed Steel: very nice action FPS with many movement options.
