Emasher Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 This summer I'm planning on playing a different one of my games every day in order of release. I'm also planning on reviewing every single one of them as I play them. I'll also probably do alot of my NES games over a couple of days as alot of them aren't going to really be enough to last the entire day (though SMB, Zelda, and Metroid will all get days to themselves). So if anyone is planning on, or wants to do something similar talk about it here. Something like this will also be alot better with the Virtual Console, especially for those of us who didn't own some of the earlier consoles. This could be a good excuse to buy some classics.

ShadowV7 Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I have a gaming summer challenge aswell actually.

tapedeck Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 If it's as sunny as last year this could be a decent idea actually! I like the idea of discussing older games. Titles seem to have a HUGE expectation and buzz and then the banter drops off a few months later. (It will be nice to see the second wave of "omg" to SSBB for us Freeloader players.) Canny idea though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darksnowman Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 I won't be setting myself the target of one game a day but maybe, just maybe, I'll stick on FF III DS again. I got it around this time last year, so perhaps the time will soon be ripe for some late night levelling up of them jobs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no room to keep everything anymore and I need some moneytos. I'm waving good bye to a lot of very good games *am cry* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esequiel Posted June 10, 2008 Share Posted June 10, 2008 Shenmue You done No2 yet? Best games ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nekunando Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 You done No2 yet? Best games ever. I bought Shenmue 2 for a very good price as I was coming towards the end of the first game (and really wanted to continue the story) but at the time I did not feel like I wanted to jump into the next chapter straight away.. I am currently making my way through Resident Evil 4: Wii Edition (though I already completed it on the GC a few years ago..) and dipping in and out of Metroid Fusion and Pro Evolution Soccer 2008. I won't be playing it for a while yet until I feel ready to get stuck in.. I need a wee break from all this adventuring (considering I am not long after coming to the end of Harmony of Dissonance) and had a much needed blast on Sega Rally 2 on the Dreamcast over the last couple of days!
