My anti-backlog list. Inspiration to finish things. Certainly not complete but a good reminder of what I did and what I thought at the time when I finished it. See also: shrink-wrap syndrome (having games in shrink-wrap that you’ve never played).

Name	Finished	Notes
Batman Arkham Asylum	2012	A really long effort. Joker was a tough final boss. Just beat story minimally.
Saint's Row 3	Dec 2011	Stupid, mindless and breaks the 4th wall. Extremely good.
Killzone 3	Dec 2011	Beat with sharpshooter gun
Killzone 2	November 2011	Beating it to play Killzone 3 with the sharpshooter
PixelJunk Shooter	July 2010
Darksiders	July 2010
Heavy Rain	July 2010
Uncharted 2	October 2009	Really great but new characters were weird.
Chrono Trigger (DS)	May 2009	Finally beat it. Many starts in 10 years. First time through after 10 years. Amazing game. Level 58ish, missed many ending things. Don't care.
Beyond Good & Evil (ps2)	Apr 2009	I heard that this was underrated. It maybe undersold. It was well done for a first title but it was painful to finish. The ending is very good though.
Grand Theft Auto 4	Apr 2009	extremely good, just was hard for me to see through because sandboxing is relaxing
Metal Gear Solid 4	Mar 2009	Very well done but I dunno if it grooves with me. Weird, hard, hardcore fan target audience.
Uncharted		Awesome game! Easy to see to the end.
Army of Two		Meh.
Paper Mario:TTYD	Aug 2007	Very well done. Polished, funny.
Xenosaga	Mar 2007	I don't know if I'm the right audience for these. Hard to see to the end.
Katamari Damacy	Feb 2007	Yay. That was fun. Original, insane and perfect length.
Shadow of the Colossus	Feb 2007	One of my favs, no question.
Grand Theft Auto:San Andreas	Feb 2007	Good story, pretty good for something before GT4.
God of War	Dec 2006	Very well done game for a first effort. Ending was satisfying. Was an effort to muscle through it.
Resident Evil 4	Jan 2007	Was a blast, but an effort to finish it.
River City Ransom EX (GBA)	Dec 2006	Even more fun than the original. After beating the NES version I realized I was on the last level and just breezed through it on this remake. Ha.
River City Ransom (NES)	Dec 2006	ha, easy. Ubered to max.
Zelda Wind Waker	Dec 2006	really picked up at the end, I put it on hold for a long time.
Kingdom Hearts 1	Nov 2006	level 56, not complete. Pretty good game for what it was.
MLB 06		one world series as the Orioles
Freedom Fighters		underrated
Need for Speed Underground		Goddamn painful. Not a fan.
Dune2		As in the DOS RTS.
Warcraft III & Frozen Throne		Last map was a !@#$
Jedi Academy		Amazing game. Easy to see to the end.

Rampage (NES)	1994	depressing ending, eh Tim?
Zelda (NES)	2005	Beaten on a DS.
Metroid Prime
Gran Turismo 3	2005	(100%)
Half Life 2	2004
ESPN 2k5		1 superbowl, best football game in a while.
StarControl2 (DOS)	(1x in 1993, 1x in 2005)	One of the greatest games ever.
