| It's almost as good as there being at least 15 Final Fantasy games! |

| Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor 2. Great gameplay, good OST, poor cast and story. |

| It's called infinite due to the plot twist at the end, that's all I'm saying. |

| Kirby's Mouse Attack a few weeks ago. Decent entertainment for the £12 I paid for it, though very lazy by Nintendo standards and (probably) rightly been forgotten.
I'm not too far away from finishing Need For Speed Most Wanted U. Great game, but not as big as I initially thought. |

Got it for around £25 in the HMV sale, by no means a bargain but probably as cheap as it'll go. |

| I'd probably have picked it up for that price too.
Red Steel, a solid 90% worthy game. Good fun! |

| Hitman Absolution (PS3). Damn fine game, can't see why critics were down on it. I'd recommend it to everyone, but I doubt it's most folks' cup of tea. Still, I absolutely loved it. |

| A Shadow's Tale, really good platformer with some cool puzzles, combat was a bit naff but who cares in such a great game. Well worth a play before platformer week in the Wii votes  I started FE: RD last night but I'm tempted to give Red Steel 2 or Resi 1 remake (another) try. I certainly don't have the time to finish Fire Emblem before I head back up north. |

| Hydroventure : Spin Cycle (3DSWare). Really enjoyable platformer/puzzler. Don't think many of you have played this, only seen ZeroJones talk about it actually, which is a shame, get it played! |

| Indeed! It has a fairly deep combat system that's makes it every bit as satisfying as it was to play on 3DS, but this time it's no longer a side scrolling beat-'em up.
The battles against rival ninja are the best bits as the AI is improved a billion times over the 3DS games too, so it's quite the challenge. What lets it down for me is the terrible camera and the balancing issues caused by characters leveling up (hope this doesn't affect Code of Princess too) in which levels which were previously hard to get top ranks on become ridiculously easy. That's no fun. |

Fairly sure our sporky has it too. I've got to the third set of levels - hopefully they'll be less of a pain than the latter half of the second set of levels. Very anger inducing. In news actually related to the thread, I expect this to be my next completed game. We'll see! |

| It turned out to be HarmoKnight that I beat next. It's a hard game to rate - frustrating but fun. There's a surprising amount to it for a downloadable title but it is pretty expensive. The fairest thing to say about it is that I'd be up for a sequel. |

| None other than Luigi's Mansion 2! If there's one thing this game does better than any other game I've played recently (stop me if you've heard this before), it's the character. The ghosts, the Polterpup, the Toads, E. Gadd, and of course Luigi, all feel as three-dimensional as they should on the console. I can forgive a lot of gameplay faults for good ambience, but fortunately the game doesn't have many: the balancing sections, slight lack of variety in ghosts, and the overall third dungeon feel (despite some excellent set-pieces) are the only real problems. The ghost-wrangling is done well despite having one less analogue stick than the GC did, and the mansions are a joy to explore. Good length too, for a handheld game, and it's not all easy. This is my favourite game on the 3DS by lightyears. Sorry Uprising. I give it 10/10 and a big grin. |

| Wind Waker - me and the other half took it all on together. And, aside from that goddamned triforce hunt, it's just as glorious as ever. Said hunt was eventually gamefaq'ed after we drew an absolute blank. If they don't remove it from the remake it needs much better signposting, as the actual sailing around getting it all isn't that bad. |

| Just completed Skyward Sword. I don't rate it as highly as Twilight Princess or Windwaker. Motion plus was fun but mostly presented problems such as constantly having to re calibrate because bow aiming felt really heavy and cumbersome.
Story and ending was good, although personally I found the last few challenges/bosses to be lackluster |

| It's interesting: at the times of release, SS was rated the best Zelda evar and TP was slammed for being a dull copy of OoT. Now it's largely the other way around.
(Also, did you not get The Judders during the SS credits Vido? They really ruined that ending for me.) |

| I actually still think Twilight Princess is a bit of a dull Ocarina copy personally (I think it's more to do with getting bored of the Zelda formula though), but I haven't finished Skyward Sword to comment on it. It is actually on my radar to resume right now though but I think I'd rather get that Nuzlocke run done instead and odds are I'll get sidetracked by 3DS games before I can resume it. |
