918th played so far Genre: Simulation Platform: PC Year of Release: 2005 Developer: Ubisoft Bucharest Publisher: Ubisoft One of the weirder games we had for our old, 2 5.25″ floppy drive only PCs was called GATO. It was a real time submarine simulator that took me years to figure out – helped by having to […]

916th played so far Genre: Driving Platform: Xbox/PC Year of Release: 2002 Developer: Hitmaker Publisher: Sega I’m not sure how Crazy Taxi 3 was already on my radar, but I remember the idle game using the franchise a few years ago grabbing my attention for a little while. Beyond that, the idea game reminded me […]

915th played so far Genre: Sports Platform: Playstation 3 Year of Release: 2007 Developer: Clap Hanz Publisher: Sony Computer Entertainment Out of the golf games on the list, this one probably just escaped my notice most. Mario Golf ties into the full Mario sports franchise, while Golden Tee Live stood out most as one I […]

914th played so far Genre: Action Platform: PC Year of Release: 2012 Developer: Dennaton Games Publisher: Devolver Digital It feels like Hotline Miami is one of those indie darlings that started off the indie explosion that mostly happened after the list, where smaller games had a bigger scope. I’ve heard people say good things about […]

913th played so far Genre: Shoot ‘Em Up Platform: PC Year of Release: 2002 Developer: Illusion Softworks Publisher: Gathering of Developers While Mafia was in development before Grand Theft Auto III was released, it’s hard to shake the impression that this came is building on that game from the first look. The open world games […]

912th played so far Genre: Action/Adventure Platform: Nintendo DS Year of Release: 2009 Developer: Nintendo EAD Publisher: Nintendo Thanks to the Book of Mudora podcast, I’ve been steeped in Legend of Zelda lore recentlyย – something that seems way deeper than the games justify, but it’s fun anyway. I’ve been waiting some of these out […]

911th played so far Genre: Fighting Platform: Playstation 1 Year of Release: 1997 Developer: Light Weight Publisher: Square/Sony Computer Entertainment I’ve not heard of Bushido Blade before the blog, and I don’t think I will after – there was a sequel, but it does look like it didn’t go anywhere. It feels like it fits […]

910th played so far Genre: First-Person Shooter Platform: Xbox 360 Year of Release: 2007 Developer: Bungie Publisher: Microsoft Game Studios It feels weirdly apt to cover an older Halo game now, as the anniversary edition has been recently released as I type this. It’s the last in the series that’s on the list, although Halo […]
