Isn't Zeno Clash $15 to buy? $20 at the absolute most...

I second that.

Oh yea, Shadow of the Colossus is pretty damn fantastic. I wouldn't say it's a tearjerker either BUT it's a must play for all fans of games that make you feel stuff.

This.

and Journey, not because it's sad exactly but, I dunno, just because.

I have no problem with pre-ordering from stores. I literally can not think why it's bad, you guys seem to think it's the devil or something.

I don't buy every game I pre-order. I cancel them if the game doesn't pan (out or if I just change my mind) and get my money back.

Not much at all. I love a great game soundtrack but when it comes to listening to them out of that environment they fall much more flat. I throw on the Hotline Miami/Bastion/Deus Ex:HR soundtrack once in a blue moon but that's about it.

I love hearing Jeff incredulous. It makes me so happy.

64 is better, duh

Just play what you feel like playing.

I don't have much of an 'unplayed/unbeaten' backlog but I wrote a list (on paper with a pen!) of games I wanted to re-play before the new consoles really got going. So I've been playing some older favorites.

.

Of your list, I would recommend go head first into either Alan Wake or Deus Ex: HR. Both are terrific games. Both also have slower starts so play for more than 30 min before potentially bailing. :P

KILLER7

so many attempts

I'm not terrifically into strategy games, my intro to the genre being Starcraft 1 and Warcraft 2 which I loved. For YEARS I tried to find one that got me that enthused to no luck.

Then.

X-COM: Enemy Unknown

-man that game is sweet.
