I finally beat Jet Grind Radio for Dreamcast. I've been meaning to take that game out for over a year now.
Definitly one of my favorites. The graphics look pretty amazing with the VGA box too. Nice music on the later stages.

New Super Mario Bros
Trace Memory (working on my second time through now)
Oblivion (just started a new character yesterday)
Bone: Out from Boneville (bought and beaten on the same day. Depressingly short)
- Diddy Kong Racing - N64 (for the 2nd time)
- Pac 'n Roll - DS
I'm also about to beat Pac-Man World 2 for Gamecube but it's so darn boring I don't think I can finish it. I just bought it because Pac-Man Vs. was included, which was developed by Miyamoto.

I guess you liked it? I thought it as pretty good, despite being very repetitive and short.
It was alright. Nothing special. I just wanted to play it a second time because I didn't get all of D's memories, and I'm dying to know how he died. That, and the second time through all the DS cards say different things, so that's a nice incentive too. But yeah, I must know how he died and why he has that hand mark on his chest.

1) It was wayyyyy too easy. I'm not going to go on and say how short it was, because it wasn't *that* short, but the easiness of the game made it seem that way. There were no levels that made me wonder how to do them, or no levels that prevented a challenge to me in any way. Perhaps it is because we have grown up with these games, and they are starting to get tiresome, but I really did not have that much fun playing the game. There were fire flowers EVERYWHERE and it was ridiculously easy to get extra lives... I believe I finished the game (with the bonus worlds with about 62 extra lives. While the big mushroom was neat, it was quite annoying how it essentially let you skip through a level, and when returning back to normal you kept momentum which resulted in a couple lost lives. The small Mario was neat, but it was not too unique/underutilized.
Also whenever i got to a boss I had a fire flower, which resulted in an easy 5 second kill. Even the last boss was able to be taken down with a fire flower =\
To me it felt more like a chore to get through the levels than anything. I got excited when I saw a Haunted House (a la SMW), but alas, there was only one of them and it was pretty darn easy. I also had really high expectations for it, but I guess I shouldn't have. Oh well.

I got all of the memories the first time through. I might play it again just to see what it says. Supposedly if you play it through for a third time it says something different yet again

I too thought that was too easy of a game, and ended up selling it off on ebay after beating all the worlds. As a point of reference, I do remember there being at least 3 haunted houses.
