Finally got around to blogging about these. DMC4 is a great game that doesn't quite measure up to 3 but is still good fun.
Fighting Vipers is a nice little fighter that nevertheless doesn't do enough to separate itself from
Virtua Fighter (likely the reason only one of the series remains active).
Those two beats make this my most productive year for beating video games ever! Plenty of time to keep it rolling too. It's a complicated feeling breaking this record, as I strongly believe there is more to life than video games. BUT they also matter a great deal to me, so beating a ton of them makes me feel good to. Plus, a lot of the games on this list are short, one-sitting games. Anyway, we'll see if I can crack 50!
