Beaten:
1/17 - Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary (Xbone [360 [Xbox]])

Boy, denoting the console for this one's a doozy. It's a port of a 360 game that was a remake of an Xbox game! In any case, I beat it. In my early youth, I was too much of a contrarian to sink my teeth into this game in its infancy, so the series as a whole went on to pass me by. I didn't really care, either. However, when the MCC came out, I figured I could grab it and at least play through Halo 1 to see what it was all about. I also have a friend who is an enormous Halo fan, so I knew that even if I didn't like it, I could bear co-oping through it with him. I actually thought it was pretty decent. The 360 version was a disaster because the framerate was just hideous, but the Xbone version amends that issue. It's certainly not an amazing game, but I had a suitably fun time with it, and I'm sure I'll have a good enough time romping through Halo 2 with him whenever we get around to it.

What'd you think of Wolfy? It was one of my favorite games of 2014, so I'm interested to hear your thoughts.

Best entry in the series, no doubt about it. I'm tempted to call it my AAA of the year - and yes, I'm edging out Dark Souls. I have a few minor gripes with the game, but the shooting is rock solid and feels great, and the story managed to find a really nice line between comical, bonkers alt-history and moments of legitimate poignancy. Really a phenomenal game, and may even edge out Dishonored in terms of games that give you the option of stealth and balls-out shooting without crippling either option.

This Pokemon entry was much more enjoyable than Pokemon X. I'm finding lots to do postgame as well so that's nice, having good fun.
