NME

I agree that Portable Ops would have been a great inclusion in this package, but I think the fact that so few people are mentioning its exclusion speaks volumes. It was a good game with horrendous controls that, I suppose, Konami does not feel is relevant enough to both to remaster. 
 
It's a shame, really. But surely the same cannot be true for Metal Gear Solid, making its exclusion from this package all the more baffling. 
 
Of course, I complain, but I am still capable of playing both games on my PSP and PS3, respectively. In that way, I guess I'm more disappointed that they aren't remastering Portable Ops, because I don't think I can bring myself to fuss with those controls ever again.

The point, I feel, isn't that you can rather easily fail a case in L.A. Noire. To me, the point is that your failure yields the same results as your success, the only difference being a largely underwhelming cutscene with your section head complaining, which is always immediately ignored upon the start of the next case. 
 
Since the results are static, it only seems reasonable to try to play the game as correctly as possible. Not doing so breaks the story. It's a significant flaw in the game.

While I'm happy to be able to play Infamous for "free," I think the list from which we can choose should have been significantly larger. I feel that the people most affected by the PSN downtime will own most, if not all, of the games being offered. Something as simple as "pick any two games available on the PSN store as of [date on which the store comes online], no questions asked," seems like it could have worked, ignoring the logistics of how Sony would know to interpret each transaction. You know...since online infrastructure isn't their strongest suit.

Hopefully they don't try to dance around spoilers for these games. I think last year's (and 2008's) GOTY podcasts were great, but it's very weird to hear them try to argue the merits or demerits of a game while dancing around specific plot points.  
 
I get that there are a lot of folks who may have not yet played some of the games up for discussion, but I feel like spoilers should be an assumed risk in any game of the year discussion. 
 
...Not that anyone is going to see this four pages into a thread, but I feel better having put it out there.

I've only gotten Raccoon City to work, which I used to activate the quest. 
 
Neither Silent Hill nor Hell work for me, nor do any of the others that I've tried which have been mentioned previously in this thread.

I'm also looking to play Uncharted 2, finally.  
 
The QL moments list is great!

Limbo. I put more energy into that game, figuring out all of its secrets, and trying to master every nuance (i.e. complete the game w/o dying) than any other this year.  I think that's significant considering the length of the game. I don't think I'll go back to it as often or with as much excitement as I do Braid, but I have a similar level of respect of and enjoyment with Limbo.
 
Special mention for Red Dead Redemption, though. That's the only GTAish game I've even considered liking since the original, and I like it a lot.  
 
Bad Company 2 also deserves a mention, since it won me over from Modern Warfare 2 and kept me interested for a relatively long time.
 
I still need to play Starcraft 2, Mass Effect 2 (and 1, for that matter), and Civilization V, among others.
