Great idea, don´t have any money for TLOU anyway. :(

Lone Survivor
Assassins Creed II
FEZ
Superbrothers: Sword and Sworcery EP

Should be doable, I´m in the last third of ACII I think.
 
Alright, I just finished Splinter Cell Chaos Theory (Xbox) today. I started it way back when it came out but never finished the story because my saves were deleted. It took me a whole console generation to gather enough motivation to play through the entire game. Only took me 3 days once I started though.

I'm not sure if it counts but I will most likely complete The Last of Us (PS3) within a few days after release. That'll be fun!

My other two:
Vice City Stories (PSN)
Call of Juarez Gunslinger (XBLA)

Far Cry 3: Blood Dragon
Call of Juarez: Gunslinger
Tomb Raider
Dark Souls (tentative)


Bonus games (if I get around to them):

Xenoblade (doubt it; game is long and I'm at the 60% mark)
Pandora's Tower
Alan Wake's American Nightmare
Majin: The Forsaken Kingdom

Ico
Hitman: Absolution
Call of Juarez: Gunslinger
The Last of Us

Got Remote Play set up with Ico today so I can chip away at it before I go to sleep. Also, made a start on Hitman: Absolution, about 5 chapters in and liking it. I've been hopping into Gunslinger every now and again, whenever I get the urge to kill some cowboys, really liking Ubi's strategy with these budget titles.
 
Alright, lets do this!

My list:

Alan Wake
Kid Icarus: Uprising
Luigi's Mansion 2
Baldur's Gate

Currently uninstalling Arkham City. Maybe 3/4 through, but not feeling it.
 
For me:

The Last of Us

STALKER

Not a very big list for me.

Edit: Oh Boo! Complete 4 games in June?? Maybe if the steam sale comes out in June I'll buy some more.

I am trying to burn through the physical games.

Technically done like 90% of gravity rush so I wont put it on the list for june.

Before last of us ideally I wanted to platinum ratchet and clank 3 along with guacamelee.

In terms of OP though, hmm

I'll finish up these (or Atleast try to)

Uncharted 2
Ratchet and clank tools of destruction
Okami HD
I'll reserve the last spot for the last of us, so I can get rid of it when I am done with it.
 
Mario Galaxy 2
Starcraft 1 Mod for Starcraft 2
Last Remnant
Earthbound? Black 2?(I have not skipped one mainline Pokemon game, but I fear the(unexpected?) XY proximity took the wind off my sail. Getting both so close is too much and I want to get into next gen early so :'(, I regret not buying black 2 before they announced XY.

My four this month:

Final Fantasy XIII [PS3] - Hold over from last month
The Last of Us [PS3]
And two more to be determined.

Failed last months with only one game complete so time to get back on the horse.
 
Ahh, I couldnt stand new game plus for arkham city either, the riddler challenges just got boring and I sold my copy of the game.

I'm not sure what it is, but it's just not clicking for me like Asylum did. Oh well, gave it a fair try at least.

Alright i'll try this:

Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story - I'm about 4 hours into it
Hitman Absolution
Resistance 3
Journey

Neo Member
I'll give it a go:

Donkey Kong Country Returns
Skyward Sword
Wario Land: Shake It!
Rayman Origins (Wii)
 
I've got two definites for the month in the two Zelda Oracle games. The other two could very well change depending on how I'm feeling once I beat the two Oracle games.

Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages
Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Seasons
Okamiden
God of War: Chains of Olympus

I might try and attempt Final Fantasy XII, but I will be starting that one over, since I wasn't overly far in my previous try of the game. However, with that being so long, I might wait on that one for another month.

There's no way I'm gonna beat four games this month. But I also don't have much of a backlog. Just twelve games or so. Here's what I'll go for:

  • Zelda: Oracles of Seasons. I just started it but it's pretty easy. I'm sure I'll breeze through it.
  • Finish Guacamelee. I'm almost done with my first playthrough, and I want to get close to 100%ing it. I'd be happy with 90% or something, lol.
  • Keep chuggin' along with Dark Souls. I don't really like it, but I want to give it a fair shot.
I don't want to get burnt out on Zelda, so I'm going to save Oracle of Ages for next month.

My backlog has gotten smaller thanks to getting rid of some games that I know I will never go back to

Metro Last Light
DmC
Crysis
The Cave
Persona 4 Golden
Guacamelee
Velocity Ultra

Getting The last of Us and Soul Sacrifice this month so they will be added.

Hoping to get a few of these done and dusted before the month ends
 
My list:

Quantum Conundrum (PS3, in progress)
Bully: Scholarship Edition (Wii)
The Last of Us (PS3)
Dead Space 3 (360)

Should be doable.
One down, three to go.

Quantum Conundrum (PS3)
Bully: Scholarship Edition (Wii)
The Last of Us (PS3)
Dead Space 3 (360)
 
After a terrible May, hopefully I'll make some progress this month. I already plan on getting Muramasa and Animal Crossing, so beating 4 games would help make up for it.

May:
  • Alice: Madness Returns
  • Super Ghouls'N Ghosts
  • Iron Brigade
  • Dust: An Elysian Tail

Didn't do a great job last month because I played so much DOTA and Sega Rally. Time to get to it:

  • Final Fantasy III (DS) - 7 hrs in
  • X-Com: EU (Steam) - First playthrough. 4-5 missions in and loving it
  • Alan Wake (360) - Been in the shrink wrap for so long

What will constitute the four game is tough. So many choices. One each system: Walking Dead (PC), Shenmue (DC), Sonic 3 (XBLA), Uncharted 3 (PS3), Donkey Kong Country (SNES)... or I'll just play way too much DOTA again

Didn't beat anything in May due to long work hours but plan on beating at least 3 in June. All I know right now is Heavy Rain will be one of my June games, the rest I'll play by ear. What ever catches on with me is what I'll play and beat.

These things depress me so much, but alright, I'll try again.

Here's my goal:

The Witcher 2
Valkyria Chronicles
Tales of Graces F
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2
 
Professor Layton and the Miracle Mask+ (Currently playing a bit)
Professor Layton vs. Ace Attorney
SMT: Nocturne
Silent Hill 2 (told to play it by a friend, still haven't gotten to it)
 
I didn't participate in the May thread, but got really close to beating Chrono Cross and Digital Devil Saga. I will add them to June's list.

Chrono Cross
Digital Devil Saga
Digital Devil Saga 2
The Last of Us

EDIT: I beat Chrono Cross last night and thought the game was great. Too bad Square doesn't make games like that anymore. :(

1) InFamous: Festival of Blood
2) Resident Evil 4 HD
3) Crysis
4) Just Cause 2

That was nice and short.
 

honorless

We don't have "get out of jail free" cards, but if we did, she'd have one.
I'm still feeling a bit iffy 'bout this list. Hmm.

  • Germinator
  • Rhythm Thief and the Emperor's Treasure
  • Crimson Shroud
  • Liberation Maiden
  • PixelJunk Shooter (May's leftovers)
I would describe Germinator as not a timewaster but a waste of time. Even if you have PS+ your Vita's MC space is probably at a premium, so if I was you I wouldn't bother.

...Unfortunately I'm me, and I kinda like having (somewhat) rare trophies and achievements. So I'll probably keep chipping away at the rest of those every so often until my subscription expires in August or I get completely sick of the game.

MY FOUR IN JUNE Go go go!


Super Puzzle Platformer Deluxe is now 100% and I unlocked the final costume. Nice little game, some brutal challenges (the last one was quite easy, though). Some utterly amazing music. Need the soundtrack yesterday.

I already started playing The Feeble Files, but I might try and finish Thomas Was Alone first before that, as HLTB.com informs me it's quite a short game.

My backlog sadly grew thanks to the recent Humble Bundle, but I've finished one of the games already and a couple of the others I've either beaten a while back or given away to people on GAF, so I've minimized the damage done.

Metro 2033

I'll go with this for now. Possibly adding Tales of Vesperia ps 3 to the list later.
