I'm surprised you picked the relatively low key point and click adventure game genre to keep you awake. I would think you'd want something a bit more action-y. Hell, out of those 4 games, I think Gemini Rue and Sword and Sworcery are probably the only games with any sort of time pressure.

PLAY KAMEO ELEMENTS OF POWER

Yeah, you should play a Platinum game.

@cooljammer00: @corevi: You guys are right. I was kinda in a mood for some point and click, but I do love vanquish and it is around the right length. I think about it when I finish the first game.

In the words of Mary Kish, "You DEMON!". That's the game that nearly sucked the life out of Brad during his Extra Life stream.

So, I'm sticking to my original plan, and with all due respect to Kameo... I will never in hell play Kameo. When during the stream did brad play it though? That might be my reward for this whole experiment... watching someone else drive themselves nuts with video games and no sleep...

@slaps2: It was during his half of the most recent Extra Life campaign (the first 24 hours, I think). It should be archived on the site.

By the way, as someone who has the same issues rationalizing reasonable amounts of sleep to their idiot brain: I wish you luck.
