NIER, for either X-box 360 or Ps3. Only twenty bucks, and quite possibly the best game I've played in a while. If you skip the sidequests, it can be a bit on the shorter side, but there's four endings, and you need to collect every weapon in order to access one or two of them so it should last...

Guys, stay on topic. This isn't about game soundtracks, it's about music the characters themselves hear in the game. Windwaker was a good example (Ocarina of Time would also count, especially Saria's Song.) Edit: Also, if you get the chance, you should definitely play Nier. It's a great game.

Would Devola's singing in NieR count? Not only is it catchy as hell, but it also ties into the plot, as well as the overall tone and immersion of the game (in one of the darker moments, she stops singing, and for the rest of the game, the further you get from her the fainter her singing is. She...

Someone suggested Baten Kaitos: Origins, but that's actually a prequel to Baten Kaitos: Eternal Wings and the Lost Ocean. So if you can, definitely pick up that one first. Someone else suggested Enchanted Arms, but you might want to watch some gameplay videos. I found the gameplay impossibly...

It doesn't... come out of the package with that bite in it, does it? And the only thing it has to do with Justin Bieber is the packaging, right?

Favorite manga... Probably Uzumaki. I read it, I finished it, and I loved everything about it save for the fact that the protagonists were total morons. Really though, not something to read if you have a weak stomach. Favorite anime... Higurashi no Naku Koro ni, probably. Also not something...

This. Nothing can top this. Please, somebody, make it happen.

Persona 3. For whatever reason, I thought I wouldn't be able to beat the final boss without being at least at level 96, and anyone who's played that game should know how long it takes to level up sometimes. Turns out the final boss was only on level seventy-something, and I only needed to spam...

Yeah, I see what you mean. Hear what you mean... Anyway, the flute especially seemed out of place. That said, I love discordant music, so there's no way for me not to love this song.

Oh, god, there's so many. Final Fantasy VI and XIII, Psychonauts, Mirror's Edge, Beyond Good and Evil, Chrono Trigger, Fragile Dreams, Epic Mickey, Okami, and, believe it or not, Sonic the Hedgehog 2006. And I could keep going. Say what you will about Sonic '06, but eighth grade, I played the...

My mom uses the Barnes and Noble one. Personally, I think it's a great idea, but I'm too in love with paper and annotating to ever get one myself, except maybe for textbooks.

Love: Good battle systems. If a game has a bad battle system, no matter how good it might be in every other area, I just can't bring myself to play it for very long. For example, Dragon Age Origins felt unbearably clunky to me. Hate: 'Impossible' boss battles. I recently started playing a DS...

Man, I love that show. I started watching it back with the original episodes on newgrounds... Anyone else miss those episodes?

In that case, don't play Chrono Trigger. Don't play it. Doooon't. Seriously though, I'm the same way. My friend kept telling me 'Psychonauts is the best game ever, play it, I'll lend it to you, play it!' and because of that, I refused to play it until I lent her FFVII, and wanted something in...
