You are now challenged to play (and beat if possible) at least one game in either of the two series that are represented by your two numbers below at some point during 2023, regardless of whether you have ever played a game from that series or have already played all the games in that series. You can choose between either series based on the numbers you chose and are not challenged to do both (though you can should you wish). If you only thought of 1 number (or picked the same number twice), then you're stuck with that one series. Example
In some cases, I have split up several of the bigger series into sub-series (for example, the Mario franchise has been split up into several subseries for the purposes of this list). Obviously, availability can be a problem if certain titles are no longer (or not currently) available to play/purchase in your region for whatever reason (or any possible methods to still play a title in said series are overpriced), so in the event you are unable to play a game from said series (or find a way you feel comfortable playing it), you are free to watch some sort of playthrough of it online (either through a Let's Play, someone streaming, or just a playthrough with no commentary) if you can find one. You are also not required to play/watch the entire game if you obviously cannot get into it after a certain amoutn of time. If you're not feeling it after roughly an hour of gameplay you can quit. There is no reward/prize in you actually doing this. It's just a fun challenge for the new year, and one that could perhaps introduce people to a series that they have never played before or have only played one or two games in the seies. The numbers (and the gaming series associated with them) are listed below. 1 - Danganronpa 2 - NES Remix 3 - Banjo-Kazooie 4 - The Ori Series 5 - Silent Hill 6 - Prince of Persia 7 - 3D Sonic 8 - Fallout 9 - Mainline Pokemon (Red/Blue, Scarlet/Violet, etc) 10 - Splatoon 11 - Call Of Duty 12 - Wolfenstein 13 - Spyro The Dragon 14 - Assassin's Creed 15 - Luigi's Mansion 16 - Shin Megami Tensei (Not Including Persona) 17 - Star Ocean 18 - Mega Man X 19 - Fire Emblem 20 - Yakuza 21 - Devil May Cry 22 - The Last Of Us 23 - Zero Escape 24 - Soul Calibur 25 - Xenosaga 26 - 2D Mario Platformer 27 - Bayonetta 28 - Hitman 29 - Super Monkey Ball 30 - Mother/Earthbound 31 - Ys Series 32 - Layton Series 33 - Pac-Man (Whether its the arcade games, or a console game) 34 - XCOM 35 - Undertale or Deltarune (the first two chapters) 36 - Rayman (not including the Rabbid spinoffs) 37 - Red Dead Redemption 38 - Kingdom Hearts 39 - Shantae 40 - Any Mario RPG (Paper Mario, Mario & Luigi, etc) 41 - Mass Effect 42 - Street Fighter 43 - The Walking Dead 44 - Double Dragon 45 - Animal Crossing 46 - Far Cry 47 - God Of War 48 - 3D Mario Platformer 49 - Metroid 50 - Tomb Raider 51 - Ninja Gaiden 52 - Xenoblade 53 - Metal Gear 54 - Dark Souls 55 - Mario Kart 56 - Dragon Quest 57 - Super Smash Bros. 58 - NieR 59 - Monster Hunter 60 - Dragon Age 61 - Harvest Moon 62 - Resident Evil 63 - The Witcher 64 - Gears Of War 65 - Suikoden 66 - Crash Bandicoot 67 - Deus Ex 68 - Doom 69 - Batman Arkham Series 70 - Mega Man Battle Network 71 - Final Fantasy 72 - Grand Theft Auto 73 - Castlevania 74 - Bioshock 75 - Tales Of Series 76 - Mario Party 77 - Five Nights At Freddy's 78 - Mega Man (Classic Series) 79 - Uncharted 80 - Mortal Kombat 81 - Any Mario Sports Title (Not including Mario Kart) 82 - Ace Attorney 83 - Persona 84 - Half-Life 85 - Shadow Hearts 86 - Chrono (Trigger, Cross, Radical Dreamers) 87 - Halo 88 - Civilization 89 - Life Is Strange 90 - Kirby 91 - Any Pokemon Spinoff (Stadium, Mystery Dungeon, etc) 92 - 2D Sonic 93 - Warcraft 94 - The Elder Scrolls 95 - The Legend Of Zelda 96 - Shenmue 97 - Donkey Kong Country 98 - Borderlands 99 - Star Fox 100 - Tekken --- PaulG235 | Finished in the Top 2 of GotD2010's Second Chance Bracket Sadly, there are no second chances in the Guru, azuarc doesn't need one. ...
