Current game status

[torkell]

Following the lead of nendil, current status of games that I'm actively playing through:

Baten Kaitos	| | __________________	10%
Age of Empires (+ Rise of Rome)	| ___________________	5%
Myst IV	| | | | ________________	20%
Ocarina of Time (N64)	| | | | | | | | | | __________	50%
Populous: The Beginning	| | | _________________	15%
Super Mario Advance 3: Yoshi's Island	| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | ____	80% (on hold due to sister having GBA)
A Link to the Past	| | | | ________________	20% (on hold for same reason)

Other games that I plan to complete or play through again at some point, along with why I haven't completed them yet (I'm not listing games that are as complete as they'll ever be, e.g. all emblems on SA2B ain't going to happen):

Game	Why
Metroid Prime 2: Echoes	Got utterly pwned by the spider ball boss. Several times.
Command & Conquer: Tiberian Sun (+ Firestorm)	Always got stuck somewhere around the middle of the main campaign
Majora's Mask (N64 or 'cube)	Got utterly pwned by the third form of the final boss.
Sonic 3D (PC)	Didn't play it that much, and always forgot to back up the save
Pandora's Box	Just needs time put into it
Worms Blast	Evil! Evil, I say!
Jedi Knight: Dark Forces II (+ Mysteries of the Sith)	Dunno why I never beat this.
Warzone 2100	I think I got uberpwned somewhere.
Zork Nemesis	I think I got horribly stuck, and/or lost the save. Oh, and it takes a dislike to Windows 2000 or XP.

Oh, and a list of completed (at least main story sequence or majority of items, so SA2B counts even though I don't have 180 emblems) games:

• Sonic Adventure 2: Battle
• Curse of Monkey Island
• Myst
• Riven
• Myst III: Exile
• Ocarina of Time (several times, N64 and 'cube)
• Ocarina of Time: Master Quest (several times, 'cube)
• The Wind Waker
• The Minish Cap
• Freelancer
• Tales of Symphonia
• Ikaruga
• Final Fantasy: Crystal Chronicles
• Metroid Prime
• Starfox Adventures
• Starfox Assault
• Jazz Jackrabbit 2
• Hocus Pocus (shareware episode)
• Duke Nukem (original 3 episodes)

Those are by no means exhaustive lists, but it gives you some idea of what I've completed and what the backlog's like.

I always get so happy when I actually complete games because I have a terrible habit (particularly with Final Fantasy games) to just kind of give up at the final battle. And even though I got it when it first came out, I still haven't finished it... I must be retarded or something because I can't figure the fourth dungeon out, heh. I haven't even gotten it turned upside down yet!

Five years or so and no completion is nothing, though. It took me ten years to beat A Link to the Past. But, like, I was barely in kindergarten when I began playing it with my grandparents :D

Oops. "It" in the second sentence refers to Majora's Mask.
