Hi. I just posted my 600th game review. I normally try to make every 100th review a game that I consider special, but it never quite seems to work out that way.
100th review: Dr Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine (Genesis)
200th review: Kingdom Hearts III (PS4)
300th review: The Simpsons (arcade)
400th review: Star Wars: Rebel Assault (Sega CD)
500th review: Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! (NES)
600th review: Centipede (arcade)
Punch-Out!! and Mean Bean Machine are the two best games on the list. Sure, some of the other games on there are okay. But special to me? Not quite.
Here are some stats.
My 5 most reviewed consoles:
PS4: 100
PS3: 63
Arcade: 58
Genesis: 58
NES: 45
PS1: 42
I had 86 PS4 reviews when I hit 500 reviews. I now have 100, which means I've reviewed 14 PS4 games in the interim. In that same time frame I have played 11 PS3 games, 10 arcade games, 8 Genesis games, and 8 PS1 games. I've only reviewed 4 NES games in the last 100 reviews, and that surprises me. I would have thought for sure I had played more.
Here are my most reviewed game series:
Resident Evil: 17
Mario: 17
Batman: 17
Sonic: 15 (counted Knuckles Chaotix and Mean Bean Machine as Sonic games)
Star Wars: 14
Castlevania: 10
Final Fantasy: 9
Jurassic Park: 8
It's funny how there are three franchises tied for first. I normally try to space out the games I play when it pertains to certain series. Like, if I play a Resident Evil game, I will wait at least several months before playing another one. But I totally didn't plan for them all to be even.
Some series I haven't reviewed a single entry in yet:
Assassin's Creed
Call of Duty
Medal of Honor
Hitman
Lunar
Tenchu
Monkey Island
Borderlands
Minecraft
Wild Arms
Dragon Warrior
Persona
Yakuza
Soul Calibur
Bloodrayne
Earthbound
Anything past Street Fighter 1 (I know that is cheating)
Back when I did my Happy 500 Game Reviews post two years ago, I had written that I wanted to review the following games. I checked off the ones I actually reviewed:
Final Fantasy Tactics
Panzer Dragoon Saga

I only played 6 games that I had been wanting to play.
I wonder how I'll do on my new list of games I want to play before I reach 700 reviews:
Eternal Champions
Shadowman
Shovel Knight
Red Zone
Mortal Kombat Mythologies: Sub-Zero
Bloodborne

Rygar for NES
I'm also nearing 1000 overall games played in my life. I plan to do something special for that as well. I've been considering dipping my feet into doing a podcast. But nobody reads these reviews. Why would anyone listen to me talk? Hmm. But it is something to ponder.
What else can I talk about?
Nothing I can think of. I guess I'm going to end this now before it gets awkward. If you are someone who reads and follows this blog, I appreciate you. Mainly I do this for me, but if someone stumbles upon this and falls down the rabbit hole of reading through my game reviews, I'd love to see it. If my efforts have positively impacted one person, that makes it all worth it.

I never get any feedback, so if you want to ever send me what you think of my blog, even if you disagree with my opinions on things, you can reach me at dangeeksout@gmail.com
Bye.
