THREAD: 100 games in 100 days from my collection. (Because I'm bored and want semi-regular content back on the timeline)
Day 1/100: Yooka-Laylee & The Impossible Lair ( #Switch, 2019)
Might as well start with the game I'm currently playing. Picked up cheap after I saw a @Caddicarus glowing review.
Definitely well made but the controls seem off to me, looks like I'm the only one? #NintendoSwitch

Day 2/100: Resident Evil 4 #Wii Edition (2007)
Probs the game that surprised me the most last year, having never played it or being a fan of Resident Evil.
Absolutely loved it, and 100% the best platform for it.
Anyone wanna recommend another #ResidentEvil game for me to play?

Day 3/100: Eternal Darkness ( #Gamecube, 2002)
The most... 'Unique' GC game I own, played for the first time on a CRT last year and was genuinely spooky, the Sanity system has a few proper scares..
It should be used by more current games!

Day 4/100: Rez ( #PS2, 2002)
A must play just for the initial experience. I have the VR version but haven't played it yet, so excited to do so though.
The rhythm game that inspired 1000 others! #Playstation2

Day 5/100: Bioshock ( #Xbox360, 2007)
Another game that thanks to lockdown I played the whole way through for the first time.
I could easily see why its called a stone cold classic. And I must have been the only #Xbox
player in history who didnt know the twist!

Day 6/100: Silent Bomber ( #PS1, 2000)
A definite 'hidden gem' - some unique gameplay where basically you bomb the shit out of a futuristic world.
Really good arcade style action and some of the best worst voice acting you'll ever hear

#100Games100Days
Day 7/100: #SoulCalibur ( #Dreamcast, 1999)
I'm a Tekken die hard... But this might just be the best fighting game of all time.
Not much more I can say... If you've never played it, fire up an emulator and you'll see just how special it is.

Day 8/100: Sly 3: Honour Among Thieves ( #PS2, 2005)
If you've never played a Sky Raccoon game before.. Firstly why not. Secondly start with this.
This is the new PS5 platforming game we need Sony, not another fucking Ratchet & Clank!

#100Games100Days
Day 9/100: LA Noire ( #Xbox360, 2011)
I wouldn't say it's aged spectacularly.. But it's another game I completed for the first time in Lockdown and is unique enough to warrant a playthrough.
It's also ridiculously cheap.. I found this clean AF copy for just £1!

Day 10/100: Pokemon Ruby ( #GBA, 2003)
Going to stick my head above the parapet here...
This is the greatest #Pokemon game of all time.
Fight me.

Day 11/100: Ghost Of Tsushima ( #PS4, 2020)
My favourite game of last year. Go and play this game right now.
62 hours it took me to 100% and platinum it. Every hour was a pleasure.

Day 12/100: #Zelda A Link Between Worlds ( #3DS, 2013)
Here's a hot take: IMO This is the best handheld Zelda game there is.
Yes, that's an SP. Yes, I know you can't play this game on it. I just wanted to flex the triforce edition

Day 13/100: #Tekken ( #PS1, 1995)
Where it all started...
Though, I DO NOT recommend you play this game in 2021, it has not aged well
DO however watch the hilarious FMVs on YouTube.
PS: Always Yoshimitsu.

Day 14/100: Mario & Luigi Superstar Saga ( #GBA, 2003)
Hands down my favourite RPG ever. Genuinely funny and the high point for a series that has never topped the original.
Unless you abuse some items, the final boss will chew you up though. Sheesh.

Day 15/100: The World Ends With You ( #Nintendo #DS, 2006)
A game I still haven't got round to playing, but everything I've read indicates that it's excellent.
Not one I hear people talking a lot about though? At least not when it comes to a potential remaster.

Day 16/100: Resident Evil 5 ( #Xbox360, 2009)
Having only played Resident Evil 4 previously, I've now tackled this and... It's okay?
I can see why people don't like it as its so action orientated, but it's missing something which made 4 so special.

Day 17/100: Vampire Night ( #PS2, 2002)
All G-Con games are great, but this one gets slept on. Big dumb fun, and a strong contender for unintentional funniest game ever

Day 18/100: Madden 16 ( #PS4, 2016)
Only one choice today with my #Bucs being in the #SuperBowl...
My favourite Madden as it introduced Draft Champions mode - series has lost its way recently but still.. It's football

#100Games100Days
Day 19/100: Super Hot VR ( #PS4, 2018)
One of the most unique VR games out there - a shooter where time only moves when you do.
Definitely play it, and if you don't have VR, there's two other Super Hot games on almost every console.

Day 20/100: Manhunt 2 ( #Wii, 2007)
There isn't many 18 rated games for the Wii.. This is certainly.. One of them
Not as good as the first one, but certainly just as shocking. Worth the pennies it costs for that alone.

#100Games100Days
Day 21/100: #GodOfWar 1 & 2 ( #PS2, 2005 & 2007)
Two for the price of one... Two of the best ps2 games of all time and a stellar franchise.
Both games hold up so well today, the PS3 remasters are good but try and find the originals, they're worth it.

Day 22/100: #Killzone Mercenary ( #PSVita, 2013)
Full disclosure, I've never played a Killzone game before, and this is the only one I own.
But I neglect #VitaIsland far too much, I will get around to playing this soon!

Day 23/100: Mirrors Edge ( #Xbox360, 2008)
I absolutely adored this game when it came out - probably more than most, but imo it's a cult classic, especially if you can get hold of the DLC content.
But for the love of god please don't talk about the sequel

Day 24/100: #Tetris ( #GameBoy, 1989)
I went to play a game after pulling this out this morning - and ended up on it for 90 minutes.
It's never not addictive

With #NXTTakeOver minutes away, let me present to you... The greatest wrestling game of all time.
Yeah I said it.

#100Games100Days
Day 26/100: Crash Team Racing ( #PS1, 1999)
Better than Mario Kart? Maybe.
Better than the remake? Probably.
The best non-platforming Crash game? Definitely.

#100Games100Days
Day 27/100: The Simpsons Game ( #PS2, 2007)
Childhood classic, could've been the definitive Simpsons game but...
It's no Hit And Run, that's for sure.

#100Games100Days
Day 26/100: Batman Arkham City ( #Xbox360, 2011)
The best game of a great series. Another title you can get for pennies these days on a lot of systems - But tbh get this AND Arkham Asylum.
Worth it.

Day 29/100: Metal Slug Anthology ( #PS2, 2007)
This game has gotten rather expensive in recent years.. But it's worth it, because outside the arcade it's the best way to play #MetalSlug.
And what good games they are.

Day 31/100: #Metroid Prime ( #Gamecube, 2002)
I played this for about 2 hours and never returned to it cause I just couldn't get into it, despite loving 2d Metroid games.
Clearly I'm stupid as it gets mentioned as one of the best ever!

Day 32/100: Jak X ( #PS2, 2006)
It's like CTR and Twisted Metal having a bastard stepchild...
Solid fun, and (bizarrely) you have Queens Of The Stone Age on the soundtrack. Which is always a good thing.

Legit the most obvious God Of War knock off I've ever played, how they didn't get sued is purely down to EA
But... It is good fun. (Cat for scale)

Having never played the original (I know), this was my first exposure to the series. Great fun, feels like it should always have been a handheld game.

Day 35/100: Batman Arkham Origins Blackgate ( #PSVita, 2013)
No hyperbole, this might be the WORST superhero game I've ever played. It's like a gimmicked mini game stretched out for a whole campaign!
Should have realised that when it was an Origins spin off.

Day 36/100: Sonic Adventure 2 Battle ( #Gamecube, 2001)
Got half way through before my save file got corrupted...
But before that.. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Much more refined than the original, which makes it all the more playable.

Day 37/100: Lonely Mountains Downhill ( #NintendoSwitch, 2021)
Got it yesterday from @SuperRareGames - and its absolutely brilliant. Stick on some music, sit down and before you know it 4 hours will have passed.
So much fun.

The best fighting game of all time from my favourite fighting franchise of all time. Holds up INCREDIBLY well.
And again... ALWAYS Yoshimitsu.

Day 39/100: House Of The Dead 2 & 3 Return ( #Wii, 2007)
I don't have a Wii Zapper but this is still pure arcade fun and well worth a pick up.
Side note, was there ever a console release for House Of The Dead 4?

Day 41/100: Super Monkey Ball 2 ( #Gamecube, 2002)
A prime example of when a crazy Japanese concept game becomes so successful commercially, that the idea and premise just becomes normalised in your mind
The mini games are worth the money alone too.

Day 42/100: Cyberpunk 2077 ( #PS4, 2020)
Oh boy...
Tbh I got 2 hours in and just had to stop it was so buggy I couldn't enjoy it at all. Will maybe pick it up again in a few months.
Never have I been more disappointed for a launch.

Speaking of abject failures...
The game we thought we'd never see became the game we wished we never saw.
That is a hefty bust of Duke Nukem. You might ask 'why?'
I would say, 'why not?'

I actually prefer this more than the original DMC games I might be the only person in the world to share that view.

Day 45/100: SSX ( #Xbox360, 2012)
There's a lot of love for the #SSX series but not so much for this attempted reboot.
Not sure why because it's great. A bit faster gameplay than the others but great fun and the single player deadly descents is awesome.

I trust Uncle Derek's judgement.

Day 47/100: #GTA Vice City ( #PS2, 2002)
Everyone has their favourite GTA game. This is mine. The soundtrack, the aesthetic, the side missions, the unlockables, the chest codes.. I don't think Rockstar ever 'bettered' this.

You're getting two in a day as I forgot yesterday.
I haven't played this, I never will (as I don't own a wonderswan) but I needed it to complete my Tekken collection. Lovely boxed condition!

Day 49/100: #GuitarHero Live ( #PS4, 2015)
Was a great evolution for the series (real life performers and stages, plus hundreds of music videos) but I guess rhythm games were just done at this point.
Shame, cause I was playing this online as late as last year.

Day 50/100 (woo, halfway): Flipnic ( #PS2, 2003)
Does a 3D, storyline based pinball game appeal to you?
Probably not, but this did get in the '1001 video games to play before you die' book, in that series where they do quite a few media forms.

Day 51/100: Wip3out Pure ( #PSP, 2005)
Such a good series of games and with this being portable, it might be the best of the lot.
Quite a steep learning curve for newcomers due to the controls but once you have the hang of it, you'll be hooked.

Here's something slightly different...
The OPS1 mag put together around 15 of the best Net Yaroze games ('member that?), along with a Metal Gear Solid demo. Bargain!
Check @Caddicarus' video for more on this, its a belter.

This is a lesson as to why you don't buy any old launch title...
It's just not that good although my flat is on it, as its a pretty realistic map of London!

Day 55/100: Black ( #Xbox, 2005)
It's like a teenagers action movie wet dream. Everything is loud, everything explodes. A hell of a lot of fun.
Although, running this on the 360 is about as stable as the reactor in the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant

Day 56/100: G1 Jockey ( #PS2, 2002)
Well, seeing as it's #Cheltenham...
It's basically the horse racing equivalent of Football Manager... And there's 4 of them, all on the ps2!
Definitely worth a look if even just for the novelty value.

Day 57/100: G1 Jockey 4 ( #PS2, 2006)
Told you there was more G1 Jockey games
This one uses the analog sticks to steer the horse. Its great fun, just wish there was the opportunity to run classic races. Imagine getting the chance to be Frankie winning his 7!

It's a WarioWare game, if you've played one you've played them all. Still fun though!

Day 59/100: Doom ( #PS4, 2016)
The best Doom game since the very first one, by a country mile. So much fun, and so much better than the sequel.
Every PS4 game has a reversible cover as well, so make sure you switch it!

Day 60/100: Splatterhouse ( #Xbox360, 2010)
The goriest game Ive ever played (and judging by the quote on the back of the box, Nuts magazine agrees with me).
Unfortunately, it doesnt make it any good. Never cater a game towards a teenage boy, it won't end well.

Day 61/100: Zelda The Minish Cap ( #GBA, 2004)
I first played this a couple of years ago. Definitely one of the best ever handheld Zeldas, and definitely worth playing.
A genuine cart is around £20-25 at the moment, still worth it for that price.

I had this on PC as a kid, this version is.. Okay. But what a franchise this is. Cannot wait for #OddWorldSoulStorm next month. You need to play one of these games, this is a decent one to start with.

Day 63/100: Super Paper Mario ( #Wii, 2007)
Started playing this yesterday - kind of a hybrid platformer/RPG that lets you switch between 2D and 3D. Been good so far but not exactly difficult...
Certainly better than any of the last three Paper Marios though.

Day 64/100: Spiderman ( #Gamecube, 2002)
The first decent Spiderman game we ever got (yes, that is a fact) and a genuinely funny tutorial that's worth playing this game for alone.
This will always live in the shadow of it's sequel, but it's still worth playing.

Day 65/100: Crash 2 ( #PS1, 1997)
My favourite of the original Crash trilogy, just the right mix of refined platforming without too many gimmicks like the third game.
Getting 101% is a right of platforming passage.

Day 66/100: Blitz The League II ( #Xbox360, 2011)
An 18 rated sports game... Don't think there's too many of those out there. Graphic injuries, the ability to take steroids, headhunting... Doesn't actually make it that fun

One of those games you need to play at least once in your life. The PS4 remaster is fixes many small issues but there's a certain charm about the original.
Breathtaking, heartbreaking, stunning.

Day 68/100: Tekken 3 Collectors Edition ( #PS1, 1998)
Misleading name aside, this is a neat little thing. The OPS1 magazine gave them away, they're a glorified demo where you can play 4 stages as either Xiaoyu or Eddy (iirc)
Not particularly rare, still cool.

Day 69 (nice)/100: Tetris Effect ( #PS4, 2018)
This might sound weird, but this game could be the #PSVRs killer app.
One of the best puzzle games Ive played and something that can evoke actual emotion. Its a game of Tetris but especially in VR, its so much more

Day 70/100: Ghost Squad ( #Wii, 2008)
There is absolutely nothing special about this game.
But, if you have a Wii Zapper and like on rails shooters, you will have a pleasant 1-2 hours with this. I think it's worth about 17p atm.

Confession time: I've played bits of all the Uncharted games, never completed one and never got on with them.
Which by all opinions, is ludicrous. So tonight I'm starting again, from the beginning.

Pound for pound.. Probably my favourite ps2 game of all time.
It's also the best SSX game ever made. So much fun, so much replayability, and no snowboarding game has come close to being as cool.

There's a very good driving game in here...
Unfortunately half the people that played this never knew because they couldn't get past the tutorial, which is the hardest first level in any game, ever. So unnecessary

IGN called it the best Wii shooter on launch. And, it supports Wii Speak! (I don't know what that is)

One of the weirder VR experiences... The whole game is a parody and imagines a world where everything (making breakfast, getting dressed etc) involves guns.
Basically the US in 2021.
