> [@MyFootsZZZ](#): > > First, just wondering if anyone’s beaten the game or not? Are you guys planing on completing everything, (if you hadn’t already?), or do you just strive to get from ‘point A to B’, without collecting everything? I beat it a month ago at a preview event 🙂 And yes, I do plan on collecting everything–already up to world 4 at 100%. ---

> [@Mahaloth](#): > > Is this uncommon? The library I worked at in 1998 did(and still does). Just a local public library, too, nothing special. Extremely uncommon. A library carrying console games is even more rare. And a library that carries Mature-rated console games is more or less a fairy tale. ---

My library carries Mature rated games. Here’s [Splinter Cell:Conviction](http://134.241.121.88/ipac20/ipac.jsp?session=129054A26X114.28577&profile=mvc&source=~!horizon&term=xbox&index=.GW&uindex=&aspect=subtab783&menu=search&ri=3&uri=full%3D3100001%7E%211239845%7E%2117&view=items&otherloc=true#focus). They’ve got Red Dead Redemption, Assassins Creed 2, and some others as well. ---

There is no way my stodgy-ass city would ever use tax money to buy video games, especially violent ones. One of our columnists (in a column about how wearing jeans is “infantile”) even subtly suggests that people who play video games [shouldn’t be allowed to vote](http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2009/04/15/AR2009041502861.html). Unfortunately, he’s not the only one who feels that way. Bunch of old fogies. ---

We have a big, awesome library (something like 16 branches, including a 5-story behemoth downtown), but they don’t carry video games :(. ---

I’m on the forest level with almost everything… no speed-runs though. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/donkey-kong-country-returns-is-fucking-amazing/561377.md?page=1)
