I spent 71 hours, though it was probably a little more from dying and having to reload. I was definitely ready for it to be over too.
Are the Metal Slug games compatible with your arcade unit?
Yes, sir, it is. It's so easy to get a couple here and a couple there and they really start to add up 
We had Metal Slug X for the PS1 when I was a kid and we played it all the time! I've never played any of the later ones, so I'm really looking forward to those.
I love the fat characters! And it makes your guns more powerful too. Power through gluttony 
I know what you mean. Days were longer when I was a kid. 30 hour days, maybe? That must be it...
Lol. Seeing the witch run is just hilarious
Vector looks really cool! I'll add it to my wish list of iOS games lol. I thought about getting Fortune Street last week when in GameSpot but it was more than I wanted to spend 
And I'm not surprised that Spart Assault made the jump from Android to XBLA. Microsoft could make a killing by releasing it for iOS but that would be like admitting defeat lol.
I love the dreamlike quality it seems to have. Helps lend it a certain timelessness. Our industry needs more games like this. Given the title, I was expecting some sort of tie-in or allusion to Alice in Wonderland. I'd definitely like to experience this at some point.
Looks like a good list, Cary! I really enjoyed the first two Uncharted games (haven't played the third one yet) and I'm sure I'd gush about Valkyria Chronicles if I'd played it lol. At least I have it.
It's hard to remember which games that I played this year are exactly from this year lol. BioShock Infinite for sure. That game isn't perfect but it's so polished and the story is so good! I'd also recommend HarmoKnight, the downloadable 3DS rhythm platformer from Game Freak. It's a little short but is a blast while it lasts and has superb music. Lots of fun.
