Do yourself a favor and pick up Persona 3 Portable and then play through (or enjoy the ER!) P4.  The only thing you lose from not picking up Fez is a side story and that is like pulling teeth when it comes to actually beating it.  The side story doesn't really have any bearing on the main story and if you are that interested, then youtube the cutscenes.

Edit:  Forgot to mention, Persona 3 Portable actually has some functions that are included in Persona 4.  For example, being able to control your whole party!  You may think that's not too big a deal, but ask any persona 3 player and they will shudder when you mention "Marin Karin".

Castle Crashers is pretty good, Portal 2 is has surprisingly good co-op, and as much I feel dirty about this, Scott Pilgrim is pretty good when it comes to couch co-oping.

Trust me, developers will try to find any reason not to port to PC just because it's cheaper to make a console game and charge for dlc.  If it wasn't going to be this, it was going to be piracy, or niche market, or something else.

Remove Dragon Age 2 and add Baulder's gate 2.  You know, when Bioware actually made RPGS!

Pretty much, when you buy a product from amazon it will give you the option to use your credit when you check out along with how much credit you have.  That's the only way I found out how to find my credit balance, lol.

What's that?  Media panders to the lowers common denominator?  What a scoop, I gotta tell Kotaku!

I think so.  The game gives off an action feel while still remaining a turn based RPG.  Check out some gameplay on it on youtube.

Nope, hopefully this will force developers to work on a robust single player experience for it.

My choice per genera is:
RPG - Neverwinter Nights 2
Platformer - Megaman Legends 1 or 2
Driving - Forza 2
Simulation - Sims 2 or 3
Sandbox game - Saints row 2
FPS (if you are forced to! D:) - deathmatch of Timespitters 2

Cloud based services like this are ok in my opinion, but when I see companies try to hinge it all on "the cloud", that scares me.  I've seen a small company that hosts EVERYTHING on a server 7 states away.  No local backups, no on site servers, not even freaking hard drive space to locally save things.  As a network admin, it breaks my heart to see companies think that this is the norm.
