It mixes unique gameplay/puzzles with an interesting mature story -two things that make a game fun for me.

i haven't played it but i really want to buy i am waiting for a good deal



Deus EX. Never played a Deus Ex game before but picked up this one and I'm having a blast with it. Amazing game.



Yet to play Dead Island but so far I really enjoyed;

Gunstringer, Fruit Ninja Kinect and Battlefield 3 (The sniping is awesome and satisfying)



Disconnect and self destruct, one bullet a time.

Child of Eden, disappointed me.



PS One/2/p/3slim/Vita owner. I survived the Apocalyps3/Collaps3 and all I got was this lousy signature.


Xbox One: What are you doing Dave?

Well I was surprised by Catherine because I was worried about the puzzle aspects but that actually turned out incredibly fun.

Xenoblade surprised me by living up to most of the hype though I don't consider it the "jrpg savior" some reviewers talk about it as because I take offense to the idea that JRPGs are all so terrible they needed a savior.

To the Moon was surprisingly beautiful in every way, best story I've seen in a video game in years.

that's about it off the top of my head.



...

Oh yes, I must remember bulletstorm. Had a LOT of fun with that game!
