Games I've Enjoyed Playing: 2014 Edition

It's been a goddamn long time since I've done any type of update or list so it's time to get back on the skytrain and let ya'll know what I've been playing this year. Also I've been broke and still have quite the backlog so expect mostly older stuff.

VVVVVV

1. VVVVVV

First game I cleared of the year and on Jan 1st to boot! Loved the demo on PC and ended up playing through all of the 3DS version. Real cool game with great songs.

NightSky

2. NightSky

What the hell with all these indie portable games? I don't know but I have been keeping my eyes on this game back when it was announced for Wii ware and well I'm glad it ended up somewhere. Real cool ambiance and tone. Need to finish it up someday.

Tetris

3. Tetris

Man it's Tetris. What do you need to know? It's a great game to play while listening to podcasts or hell doing anything really.

PixelJunk Monsters

4. PixelJunk Monsters

The game that just keeps giving. Man I love this game. Trying to rainbow every level and I'm almost there. Dance Tikiman, Dance!

Animal Crossing: New Leaf

5. Animal Crossing: New Leaf

This may not be Vinny's bag but I love this series. Nothing is more relaxing than some early morning fishing.

The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

6. The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Transitioning into a stay-at-home dad has been something and Skyrim sucked up my free time something fierce. It was still fun coming back to that world after a long hiatus but I have to value my productivity levels.

Jetpack Joyride

7. Jetpack Joyride

This is the only mobile game that I've liked enough to come back to. Great small bursts of gaming and hella positive reinforcement. Also gotta admit I like the PS3 version best. Buttons!

Super Mario 3D World

8. Super Mario 3D World

I don't know how they do it, but EAD Tokyo makes exactly the type of games that I love to play. 3D World is no exception. This was easily my game of the year for 2013 and I'm still trying to 100% it. Can't wait for what's next from the greatest game developers on the planet.

Mega Man X

9. Mega Man X

This is like the 3rd version of this game I own now(Wii U) and it's still as playable as it was on the SNES. I consider this the best post original series Mega Man game, well if you don't count 9 that is.

Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge

10. Mega Man: Dr. Wily's Revenge

Mega Man on my 3DS? Hell yeah! Missed this original release, but I'm glad I got the Blue Bomber on a portable.
