Not sure which method you are using to post images, but it isn't coming up right on my screen. 

That's not very nice to hear. How does it come up?

I'll be doing some PC work later today (got myself a SSD!), and starting tomorrow will be hanging out with my friends over the weekend, so I'll go ahead and hint the next 3 games.

#40 - The game's soundtrack has several fictional bands associated with the music, but the bands' names only showed up in-game if you used an accessory sold separately.
#39 - A remake that spawned a new character in Smash Bros.
#38 - A remake heavily inspired by the one above.

Just as a broken image.

Oh oh oh! It's a meatbag! I know it now!

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic.

EDIT: I'm all excited lol. I'd be disappointed if it's wrong.



41. Star Ocean: Til the End of Time

First Played: 2004

Times Completed: 5

I’m a pretty big fan of Star Ocean and there is no doubt in my mind that the third game is still the best. First off, I enjoy the story, even the twist, I think the quality of voice acting is generally good and cutscenes are well written. The battles are fun, making use of real-time combat with up to 8 different characters to use that all play pretty differently. The game is also huge, spanning two DVDs on the PS2. Besides the story, there is plenty of optional content that keeps opening up as you play, even post-game. It might seem odd, but I also like the extensive information section explaining all the lore and technical terms, it even explains many real scientific terms and theoretical concepts (I love detail like this). The battle trophies give an in-game achievement system before consoles were doing it, which eventually unlock some rewards and each trophy even has a really low res photo of the moment the trophy was earned.

As expected, the music is masterfully composed and the graphics are good, making use of some effects that weren’t often seen in PS2 games. It's also nice enough to run at 60fps (50fps in PAL Land, but on a 50hz screen it matches the refresh perfectly and looks smooth) and it even loads really quickly on the PS2. The one downside is the crafting, it's almost impossible to do properly without a guide, however the end results of crafting are very useful and pretty much required to take on the most difficult optional challenges. There is so much packed into this game and there is still more for me to discover, I still don’t know what special item can only be crafted on Christmas day.

Guessed by Bofferbrauer2

The grandfather of first person shooter games was one that had a big impact on me. It sparked my interest in the events of World War II as a kid, interest that remains to this day. This has also allowed me to look at things in an objective manner. The game was, halfway through the nineties, quite shocking and controversial with it's symbolism and violence. I was young, but I wanted to play it. My mother wouldn't let me play Duke Nukem, Shadow Warrior and Doom, the games my stepfather played, but after a short time she did reluctantly let me play Wolfenstein 3D and Star Wars Dark Forces. If you can look past the archaic gameplay if you play it today, the fun still holds up. It's also not overly difficult, though I never beat it fairly. After a while I discovered the cheat codes for this game, and played all the levels by level-skipping to the parts I wanted to try. So yes, I have seen Mecha-Hitler, but I can't really claim victory.

#40: The new game has caused some controversy, even though it still has a lot more of them than the original game. Of course, you can't really cut anything if nothing came before.

Statement of Fact: You are still wrong meatbag! 

(Aside: Sometimes lying to meatbags is more fun than killing them!)
