983rd played so far Genre: Role-Playing Platform: Playstation 2 Year of Release: 2006 Developer: Nippon Ichi Software Publisher: Nippon Ichi Software Having played it some time ago, I still have fond memories of the first Disgaea game. The story was insane and a bit meta, but is what mostly stuck with me while the mechanics […]

953th played so far Genre: Sports Platform: Gamecube/Playstation 2/PC Year of Release: 2004 Developer: Awesome Developments Publisher: Ignition Entertainment I don’t really know much about pool. I’ve seen some snooker years ago in late night watches and possibly a sports program of sorts at the gym and it looked interesting, but I never really got […]

951th played so far Genre: Shoot ‘Em Up Platform: Gamecube/Playstation 2/Xbox Year of Release: 2003 Developer: Swingin’ Ape Studio Publisher: Vivendi Universal Games I don’t quite know where this game will go.

906th played so far Genre: Shoot ‘Em Up Platform: Playstation 2 Year of Release: 2003 Developer: Irem Publisher: Irem R-Type Final is the final of the three R-Type games that we’ve played, with R-Type Delta being the middle game.

892nd played so far Genre: Role-Playing Platform: Playstation 2 Year of Release: 2002 Developer: Konami Computer Entertainment Tokyo Publisher: Konami I’ve been careful going through the JRPGs as I always enjoy them for the blog – and because they are pretty long plays, which I need to be careful with so I can keep up […]
