Games you want to play, but for whatever reason can't.

Most of the PS3 exclusives. I don't have a PS3

But, lucky me, when the PS4 hits the PS3's price will shrivel, and i'll be picking up one of those slim editions. Maybe a used one, to get it even cheaper.

The Uncharted game and The Last of Us. I maybe got to play one of the Uncharteds for about 5 mins in a sop, but not having a PS3 I ended up missing out on the Naughty Dog games released for that console. The Uncharted games were right up my street and I was interested in the whole cordyceps "zombie" thing going on with The Last of Us.

Same goes for Journey.

Also, Bayonetta 2. I can't play that because a), it isn't out yet and b) it's on the Wii U so...yeh.

Any game that looks good enough to play, but not good enough to give my pay, there are SOOO many games I'd like to try, but renting would feel uncomfortable because I always feel constrained to play it, even on a large rent time.

At the moment? Fallout New:Vegas.

My local PC repair messed up the thermal paste on my CPU during a regular servicing of my gaming rig so now it can go all the way up to 99°C during after 15 minutes of playing and I just haven't gotten around to fixing it yet.

Unless it's a Fallout specific problem? Anyone else's CPU temperature sky-rockets playing F:NV?

I've heard of the game crashing a lot but not overheating a computer. My Fallout: New Vegas also has a fairly large catalog of mods, including, but not limited to: Tale of Two Wastelands, Freeside Open, Project Nevada, Type 3 Body's, Weapon Mods Expanded, Dynavision 3, XRE Cars!, Project Reality & New Vegas 4gb loader (And believe me when I say you pretty much NEED the 4gb loader to stop most of the crashes) & my PC just merrily chugs along with not a sputter nor strain. So, no. It's not a common problem with Fallout.

Also, my computer really isn't built to last. It's crude, but VERY effective. It's based off of Jack Frags cheap PC build but with a couple different parts. If FO: NV would cause problems, then I'm sure I would have experienced them.

For some reason (mostly likely the network setup of the dorm i live in) i can't access xbox live. So i can't play xbox live games (like farcry: dragon blood) and dlc (like Borderlands 2: Tiny Tinas Assault or the upcoming bioshock infinte dlc), which sucks.

Red Dead Redemption and the Borderlands games are games I want to get into, but can't because I either don't have the money to get them or lack the space on my 360's hard drive to instal all the extra content for it. I also want to get into the recent Ratchet and Clank games, but can't because I don't have a PS3 yet.

Blade & Soul (PC)
Looks amazing, but it's a Korean title and the status of when the game is being released worldwide (of which they SAY it will happen) is unknown.

The predicted release date is 2014. I feel the same way man.

For me its Final Fantasy XI - the FIRST final fantasy mmo. I used to play it for HOURS on end - loved the game, the combat, the music, the classes.

It's subscription, I don't have a job and I'm sixteen - will hopefully get a job soon but...yeah.

Not playing it til I get some cash in my pockets.

Also: Bayonetta for the sheer fact of not having it and damn it so much sexual nudity/comedy that its like 'errrrugh'.

Also: My computer, for some reason, sucks. I'm thinking its the processor. So I can't play more recent games like Planetside 2 - I have Tera but damn I would LOVE SO MUCH MORE to play it if it ran at a constant, consistent 30 frames.

And Dungeon Fighter Online - Nexon SUCKS.

Spore. But I lost my manual with the serial code on it and therefore can't input it into origin and download it to my account.

Also TF2 and Gmod. My laptop's nearly run out of space so I had to uninstall those and a bunch more to have extra space for a defrag.

My computer has some issues, and it in terms of computer age, it'll be collecting its old age pension soon so I'd like to play Witcher 2, Arkham City, Metro 2033, and Alan Wake but I can't get the games to run at an acceptable level and they play like garbage. I'd also like to play Tiny and Big: Grampa's Leftovers but my computer hates it and I'd got tired of screwing around to try and make it work.

Another game I'd like to play is Persona 4 but I've made due with the Giantbomb endurance run of the game so that desire is satiated.

At the moment? Fallout New:Vegas.

To partly answer your question, try playing demanding game and see if the temperatures skyrocket. When I had problems with the thermal paste on my laptop even using the internet caused the heat to soar; not up to 99 degrees but far above what it should be for browsing the internet.
