3rd game I've beaten since November 26th so I'll be happy with that I think I'll turn my focus to Xenoblade and Skyrim.

I may or may not try to grind out 6 more games to finish with 25 games beaten.

[NEW/2018] I. Purchase max 5 video games.
Notes.
  • Games like Crash Bandicoot HD, Kingdom Hearts 1.5 + 2.5 count as 1 game.
  • Purchasing games I already own on another platform don't count.
  • Any game that was free (eg. PSN Monthly games) don't count.
  • Birthday/Christmas Presents and Gifts don't count. Same with any Secret Santa
[NEW/2018] II. Beat 5 games for each Quarter.
  • Q4 2017 - November 26th 2017 - December 31st 2017

    1. A Boy and his Blob

Beat Anomaly Warzone Earth was pretty fun I needed to watch a guide for the last level though and it started to get kind of boring near the end.

Just a small note decided to change the Purchase max 5 video games to 3 video games as I really want 2018 to be about getting through my backlog and with 3 new PSN games a month that's 36 games already.

This is my end of year post hence why I removed anything 2018 related that will all get posted in next years thread.

The buying of games got way out of hand tbh and I'm a little upset about not hitting 25 B's however my last few months has been really good.

Next year will hopefully be much better I'm hoping to beat more games than I buy/get for free including PS+ freebies which will be interesting. I have a lot of games that are under 10 hours that I can beat.

Should be possible if you try to hammer out the PS+ freebies in the month they're released. Good way to make sure they don't fall off the backburner behind the stove, too. 😉

That's a good idea assuming they're games I am half interested in playing.

Finish more games then I buy - This might be tricky this year with a new console coming out!

Finish Code Name STEAM (3DS) - I actually was debating last year whether to add this one to the list or not, now it's time.

Finish The Legend of Zelda Oracle of Ages
- Finished Link's Awakening and seasons in 2016, time to wrap this one up.

Finish Bloodborne

Finish 3 games that were released before 2006 - I'm hoping to see some Gamecube virtual console games down the line, might even go for the original Legend of Zelda.

Play 3 series I have never played before (not including indie games) - I don't even know what I'll play, maybe Bonk??
Man, I didn't even think I made a resolution for 2017!

Resolutions 1-4 complete, which I was very happy about. Finished off some good backlog titles like code name steam. I think I considered adding game of thrones telltale series to the list, but I ended up finishing it anyways!

Surprisingly I managed to beat 3 games released prior to 2006: the legend of Zelda, Oracle of ages, and super Mario 64.

The Last one I don't think I really fulfilled. I played IP's I had never played before, but they were one off games, not technically series yet.

Considering I forgot about this all year, I think I did pretty Good!
