I love how you call her "the wife". In Argentina (and I think in most spanish speaking countries) we sometimes call them "la bruja" (witch), which, at least in my case, shows not only respect but actually fear. :P

Anyway, if you mind my opinion, I think Batman is the right way to go.

My advice would be don't play games, contact some friends you haven't seen in a while and go out, go see some good movies, have drinks and eat out, go see a game, etc. Or get your friends over, play some poker, get in a great takeaway and some good wine.

That's what I do when "The Wife" takes herself off for a weekend. The games can wait.

But if you're going to insist on being a recluse then Batman or Mass Effect 2 - I slightly preferred Batman even with its flaws as it just felt like the best attempt at such a game yet and the VO for The Joker was the best VO work in 2009.

That's the kind of stuff I do when she's in town (some with her, some not).  >_>



I voted Batman. Just played through that game and it was unexpectedly awesome. Once I got used to the combat system I really started to feel awesome, and I spent hours upon hours to kick, batarang and throw my way through enemies.

Never really liked God of War, and though Mass Effect 2 is a great game, I don't want to touch it again after completing it. I've only played just enough of Gears of War 2 to know I don't want to touch the thing again, and Bioshock didn't really strike me as a good game either.

Out of all the ones you mentioned, Batman is the one I would most recommend based on my own experiences.

Batman then for the 'vibe'.



Try to be reasonable... its easier than you think...

Batman AA. Also, you should mess up the house and pee on the toilet seat. It's what I would do!
