So when was the last time a game really blew you away?

[BasiltheBatLord]

either BioShock Infinite or Grand Theft Auto V, both for their world design. Infinite for the game word's atmosphere and feeling, GTA for the game world's scope.

also XCOM: Enemy Unknown for sheer addiction.  it's weird though because the game is so frustratingly difficult to the point where you want to quit playing but you can't, you have to keep going for more.  it's like a dangerous drug addiction.
