Games Beaten
-Kirby's Dream Land (Wii—Game Boy)
This is a simple game and it's been a long time since I played it but I'd forgotten how much thought obviously went into its design. And Kirby's sense of humor is already in full swing, as you can see in the little cartoony sections before each world. And so much classic music already! Dream Land is a lovely little GB gem, almost relaxing to play.
-Kirby's Adventure (Wii—NES)
Kirby's Adventure did so much to define the character, establishing both his pink color and his signature copy ability. The game is gorgeous for an NES title, though it suffers bad slowdown from time to time, particularly when using some of Kirby's more intense abilities. The levels are well-designed and there are plenty of secrets to find as well as mini games to play. It's not Kirby's best adventure but it's shockingly robust for his second outing, and on the NES to boot.
-LEGO Batman 2: DC Super Heroes (3DS)
DC Super Heroes is a solid LEGO game. There is a nice variety to the characters and watching them interact is often pretty funny. Gameplay is typical LEGO fare—shallow combat, light puzzles, building stuff—but it's used well here. The real meat of the game is unlocking everything through the Free Play mode after finishing the Story Mode but I'm not much of a completionist. The story was fun while it lasted though.
Games Bought
It's been a while since I've bought a Humble Bundle but I couldn't resist the one that came out in early September. SteamWorld Dig was the clincher for me but it was cool to get Papers, Please and Gunpoint (two titles I remember making a splash when they came out) as well as Luftrausers and Hammerwatch (which looks really cool). The bundle also came with Gone Home but I already had that.
Then there is the month's PS+ games, of course. I'm most excited about Velocity 2X for the Vita since I really enjoyed the game that came before it, Velocity Ultra. There was also Sportsfriends (PS3/PS4), which I'll probably never play (need friends lol), TxK for the Vita (no idea what it's like but apparently it's good...?), Hoard (PS3), and Joe Danger (Vita). Finally, in a feeble last-ditch attempt to fight Smash Bros., PlayStation All-Stars Battle Royale was free for both the PS3 and Vita. I'll probably never get around to playing it, but it's there now in case I ever want to.
Now Playing
-Mass Effect 3 (360)
I really thought I might be done with this game by now because I was getting in lots of playtime when I first started it, but life has forced me to slow down. I've also spent a lot of time exploring Reaper-controlled space for war assets and doing Citadel side quests. I'm sure there is still plenty of story in front of me, though, and I'm really enjoying it.
-Darkstalkers Chronicle: The Chaos Tower (PSP) (PS+)
I've finished playing through Arcade Mode with all the characters. Now I'm set to tackle the 100-floor Tower Mode. I've heard that it's pretty hard, so I hope I can make it all the way through. I'm really not much of a fighting game guy.
There are so many options for how you want to play this game
-Monster Hunter Freedom Unite (PSP)
I'm up to Hunter Rank 5 and things are really getting difficult. I'm in need of some nicer stuff, so I'll be focusing on crafting for a while.
That sounds like one of the most solid humble bundles I have seen in a while. Too bad I already have all those games, and have sworn off of that site. SteamWorld Dig is still one of my favourite games... I should probably get around to finishing it on the Vita.
I try to be more choosey with Humble Bundles than I used to be but it's still so difficult to resist sometimes. But you've sworn off the site? Is it because it's just too easy to spend money on games you won't actually play?
I haven't played a single game that I have bought on humble bundle.
I've played...3, maybe?...of the Humble Bundle games I've bought. That's a horrible ratio, I know, but dang it, I want to play these games! And the number of games I've gotten is higher because of the fact that they're bundled together. There are usually just one or two games in the bundles I get. Now if I could just manage to play those games...
I suppose it is untrue to say that I have not played any of those games... but the only way that I have really played any of the humble bundle games that I have purchased was when I played them on the 360 or Vita. Which was also the point that I had paid full-price for the games.
Darkstalkers Chronicle looks pretty cool. I love those characters even though I don't play many fighting games.
There are a couple cliché characters, like the vampire guy, but most of them are really interesting. I was surprised.
I'm gonna keep my eye out for this PSP game. Thanks.
I heard DC2 was fun, but I really want to play the new one coming out that has Batman going into space. That just seems so cool!
I'm definitely interested in LEGO Batman 3 after playing the second one.
I also bought the Bundle you mentioned here, but decided to go for the lower pack of only Hammerwatch, Gunpoint and SteamWorld Dig. Hammerwatch is very fun so far and Gunpoint is looking very interesting from the small 18 minutes I played. Haven't tried SteamWorld.
I haven't gotten around to any of them yet... 
I could never get into Kirby games.
That's sad, man. You should try again. They're generally not challenging but are plenty of fun.
I think it's the lack of challenge that makes it less fun for me. I don't like not having a goal and while Kirby games technically have one, it doesn't feel like much of an accomplishment when I complete that goal. Then again I've never actually beaten one of these games either, so perhaps I'll try again.
You've finally dug into one of my Halloween games of 2012! Good on you mate. Get your Octoberween on!
Alright, I'm only two years behind
