Retrospective: February 2013

3/1/2013

0 Comments

 
One of my favorite things to do as a blogger every month is to recap my various creative endeavors, both for the sake of folks who haven't been following along and want to make sure they haven't missed anything, and because it's a free pass to post a couple of links and pretend it's a real post. Wait, no. I mean...okay, that's exactly what I mean. Nevertheless! It's often a surprise to see how much I've done (or a kick in the pants to start working on something, if not), and it's interesting to track my creative development from month to month. Think of this as a sort of time capsule for February 2013, a month I'm particularly glad to preserve:

The Backloggery:

Now, before you pass out when you see the updates to my video game backlog, allow me to say that I've been meaning to add my wife's King's Quest Collection and Dungeons & Dragons Anthology compilation discs to my list for some time, and that I've really gotta stop letting Good Old Games e-mail me about their crazy 50% off sales. The new WiiWare and Virtual Console games are just me being proactive—with the release of the Wii U, who knows what'll happen to the last generation of downloadable games? Better pick them up now, just to be safe.

(I'm such a hopeless collector.)

To compensate for this massive hit to my progress, I went back to a few games I could easily mark as Completed, or at least Beaten, in a single sitting. Can you believe I had left some of those games hanging? Maybe that's a project for this month—put the finishing touches on some games I abandoned just a little too soon.

New:
- Baldur's Gate  (PC)
- Baldur's Gate: Tales of the Sword Coast  (PC)
- Baldur's Gate II  (PC)
- Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal  (PC)
- Castlevania: The Adventure ReBirth  (WW)
- Deus Ex: Game of the Year Edition  (PC)
- Icewind Dale  (PC)
- Icewind Dale II  (PC)
- King's Quest I: Quest for the Crown  (PC)
- King's Quest II: Romancing the Throne  (PC)
- King's Quest III: To Heir Is Human  (PC)
- King's Quest IV: The Perils of Rosella  (PC)
- King's Quest V: Absence Makes the Heart Go Yonder!  (PC)
- King's Quest VI: Heir Today, Gone Tomorrow  (PC)
- King's Quest VII: The Princeless Bride  (PC)
- Phantasy Star  (VC)
- Planescape: Torment  (PC)
- Super Star Wars  (VC)
- The Temple of Elemental Evil  (PC)
- Thief Gold  (PC)
- Tomb Raider  (PC)
- Tomb Raider 2  (PC)
- Tomb Raider 3  (PC)

Started:
- Dangeresque Roomisode 1: Behind the Dangerdesque  (Brwsr)
- Super Star Wars  (VC)

Completed:
- Kirby's Dream Land 2  (GBC)
- Megaman vs Metroid  (Brwsr)
- Prince of Persia  (PC)
- Prince of Persia 2: The Shadow and the Flame  (PC)
- StrongBad Zone  (Brwsr)

Mastered:

Phew! That's a lot of bullet points. Aside from the embarrassing number of new games (I DON'T HAVE A PROBLEM I CAN STOP ANYTIME), February turned out pretty well, I'd say.
