Dtoid's 2008 Completed Games List: March Update
Necros | 12:46 PM on 04.08.2008 19 comments




I'm sorry that this update is a week late, I've just been really busy with school and, in my free time, I've actually been devoting more time to playing games (you know, that hobby we profess to enjoy). Anyways, March was a fairly good month for game playing, though I'm sure most of the month was taken up playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl. I for one have long ago unlocked all aspects of gameplay, and a lot of people consider themselves done with the game. However, I just have this thing where I can't consider it "complete" until I've unlocked every damn trophy and sticker in the game. I'm crazy like that.

In terms of the total number of games played, we had another strong month in March, though we still played 5 less than in February. As always, this list isn't intended as an authoritative index of every single game Dtoid has played, as I'm sure a lot Dtoid's accomplishments haven't been chronicled in the main list. Of course, nothing's stopping you from jumping in right now, provided you've played any games so far this year. So why don't you go add your games to the full list (games from January and February are included in the first post) and see how high we can get the total for April?

To put a little context to the way the list works:

1. Completion does not mean that you have to do X, Y, and Z for it to be completed. Completion is whatever you consider finished, whether that is just beating the game, getting every achievement, or unlocking every single item.
2. Games released via digital distribution count too! You can list XBLA and PSN games separately, but realize that I will be putting them under Xbox 360 and PS3 listings in the main list. Wii VC games will be listed under their console of origin, since they play exactly the same with no changes.
3. If you beat a game that you've beat in the past, it still counts! The list is for games completed in 2008, regardless of previous completion.
4. Some "games" are actually compilations, such as Sonic Mega Collection and The Orange Box. Since there are multiple games, please list each of them separately.
5. If the game is multiplayer only, it's hard to actually complete it. If you want something like Team Fortress 2 to count, make sure it's some goal like "got all achievements" or "raised skill rank to 50" and note it in your list.
6. Remember, this isn't a competition. This is just for fun. We're not here to compare our e-peens.

@ People who don't read

These are just the games listed during March. If you listed a game in January or February, it's listed in the full list in the forum thread. If you want to be on the monthly update lists, you have to keep listing games each month. I thought that was pretty simple.

156? that seems low
Joseph Leray's Destructoid Blog
God, when you look at the forum thread, it looks like I've only played 1 game in 2008. I swear I play lots o' games, but I just haven't gotten around to *finishing* them yet. :(

What Orcist said. I don’t think I’ve technically “completed” a single game in 2008 yet.

 about me



Yo. I'm a junior at Syracuse University, studying Television/Film at the Newhouse school.

I love video games, gaming/nerd culture, examining games critically as an art form, and all the useless trivia and data surrounding games. I am a consumer whore. Gaming is obviously one of my primary hobbies, though not the only one. I'm a regular on Failcast.

I also watch anime and read manga when I get the chance. It's mostly just mainstream and shonen stuff as a result of the ease of accessibility, though I try to see some more obscure series when I get the chance.

I have epic hair.

I play bass guitar and have been in a band. It's broken up. I lived the dream.

I love rock. I tend to gravitate towards various types of punk, alternative, or indie, though I'll listen to anything. Bob Dylan rocks. Also, random weird underground stuff. The NES sound chip was amazing.
