I can't imagine you not having a computer that can run the first SC. The minimum requirements are ridiculously low.

90 MHz processor for Windows
120 Mhz processor for Mac OS
SVGA video card or equivalent
16MB RAM (32MB recommended)
DirectX version 2.0 or better
80MB of disk space

You HAVE to have at least that.

I've played too many games this year to even come close to deciding on anything definitively, and as usual, I've played so many games from different years this year that everything is always kind of just cluttered together for me.

If I had to start name dropping, I'd go with the obvious stuff like ME2, Galaxy 2, DA: Awakening, CivIV, Epic Yarn, Dead Rising 2. The list kinda goes on.

But I also really enjoyed a lot of under the radar games that nobody talked about, like Sonic & Sega All-Stars Racing, Majin and the Forsaken Kingdom, Yakuza 3, Enslaved, Lost Planet 2 and Lego Harry Potter.

But, to me, this was really a year of downloadable games. I've been so enthralled and entertained by unique little games like Game Dev Story, Ancients of Ooga, Comic Jumper, Super Meat Boy, and Costume Quest. On top of that, there have been a number of fantastic established DL titles like Mega Man 10, Castlevania: Harmony of Despair, Scott Pilgrim vs The World, DR: Case Zero, Pac-Man CE DX, Tales of Monkey Island 2 SE and Earthworm Jim HD.

I dunno, this was just yet another fantastic year of games. It's so hard to keep up at this point that I'm behind constantly. I'm still on the second last dungeon in Darksiders and I think I've played two hours of Lords of Shadow, not to mention all the stuff I have left in New Vegas. It's both expensive and extremely satisfying to be a gamer in this day and age.

Couldn't agree more. Between now and March, how am I supposed to justify buying Crysis 2, Dead Space 2, Marvel vs Capcom, Killzone 3, and maybe even Bulletstorm? Yikes...

Haven't played a whole lot of games released this year, but my favorite is definitely No More Heroes 2: Desperate Struggle. Craziness to the max.

The rest of the games I love from this year, I'd rank in this order:

Deadly Premonition
Sin & Punishment: Star Successor
Limbo
Heavy Rain
3D Dot Game Heroes
Super Mario Galaxy 2

I think that's all the games from this year I've played, actually.

I wanna include Silent Hill: Shattered Memories as well, since that game is awesome (aside from how the story falls apart and gets super lame at the end), but that came out last December...although the PS2 and PSP versions were released in January, so maybe I can include it. ;)

I wanna play Donkey Kong Country Returns and Kirby's Epic Yarn, but those will have to wait.

For me, Donnkey Kong Country returns.

Closely followed by God of War 3. Just love them both.
