End of Year Totals, Stats, and Thoughts
Since starting to keep track 9 years ago, I have now beaten 770 games!!
Modern: 39 across 5 systems (PS4:14, PC:9, X1:6, PSVR:5, iOS:5)
Retro: 31 across 11 systems (NES:6, PS3:5, Arcade (Wii):4, Vita:3, PS2:3, Retro PC:3, 360:2, NDS:2, GCN:1, C64:1, SNES:1)
Genre Breakdown:
Other: 9
Fighting: 9
FPS: 8
RPG: 7
Platformer: 7
Racing/Sports: 6
Shmup: 6
Beat-em-up: 5
Puzzle: 4
Rail Shooter: 4
Third Person Shooter: 2
Twin Stick Shooter: 2
Run-n-Gun: 1
Best game I've finished that was released this year: God of War
Best retro game(s) I finished for the first time: Postal 1 & 2
Overall not a bad year. I played a lot more retro stuff this year than I have in a while, and took a decidedly slower pace with games in the second half of the year. I am happy with the ratio of short/long games, and oddly I still haven't finished my GOTY (Astro Bot Rescue Mission).
As the year ends, I find myself grappling a bit with how much I want to stick to chronicling the games I have finished. I had been planning to keep going until I hit 1000 (probably 3 years away) but, to be completely honest, I haven't felt the same level of enjoyment in making these posts as I did in previous years. Part of that might just be the larger sense I have that this forum is dying and so there's less responsiveness to people's posts (I, too, am guilty of not really weighing in much), but part of it is also the long grind of trying to make sure that I'm always working on beating something, of planning some of my gaming around various game lengths, and of knowing that I will need to write a few thoughts about each game to keep up what I have been doing since 2010. I will probably try to make good on finishing out the decade at the very least...and maybe the 1000 mark, too. But I can't see doing this much past that...
