UPDATE: Gaming New Year's Resolutions

IGN.com is pretty much my go to site for gaming, and they posted this interesting article about gaming New Year's resolutions. I have decided to complete this check list and adding a few rules of my own:

UPDATE: Resistance is Complete! Sorry 7 Little Words, You're Coming!

UPDATE: Monster Dash is Complete! Expect the review out soon. Next up, 7 Little Words!!!!

1. Play a Game Out of your Comfort Zone: 7 Little Words by Blue Ox Technologies Ltd.
2. Play a Game With a Cutesy Art Style:
3. Play a Game That's Critically Diverse: Resistance: Burning Skies by Nihlistic (review here)
4. Play a Game a Little Under the Radar:
5. Play a Casual Game: Monster Dash by Halfbrick

ORIGINAL:

1.The game must be played to completion (if completion is possible) or a minimum of 5 hours
2.Each resolution must be a unique game, so no one game can cover more than one of the resolutions
3.Each Game must be played on a separate consoles

I will keep my games posted and give my ideas, updating with each new game added and completed. SO here's the beginning:

Beat Your Friends For the Girl in Castle Crashers

Since it's inception, Xbox Live Arcade has released numerous games across all genres that have spiked the sales and creation of digital games. This same online market is what spurred Sony to create it's own online store, The Playstation Store, and has even opened a gateway for indie developers to actually release their own games online as well as the tools to develop these games. Towards the beginning of the life of this service, one particular game came out that shined above the rest. Even today, it is still one of the best selling game on the Live Arcade. This game is Castle Crashers, where you can run and help or hinder your friends as you play as four knights (at first) and take on the forces of evil to save your princesses.

Limbo: Further Proof that Games are Art

The video game landscape has changed drastically since its inception not over 30 years ago, and as technology increases in strength and main stream becomes more and more broad, it's amazing to see the amount of independent video game design companies sprouting up left and right today on current consoles, a platform originally intended to strike gold for triple-A console releases. Limbo is a very big example of how powerful these tiny companies can be with limited resources (compared to the larger game companies).
