Stranglehold

For 10 Dollars New!

I really enjoyed the game and loved the over-used slow-motion and epic-ness.
Aaand ninja'd.
I never really cared for Stranglehold and since most people compared it to Wet and I didn't like the demo of that, I doubted I'd ever play it. But, for some bizarre reason, I downloaded the demo. Well, it was fucking awesome.
Later, when I was in Germany, I found a pretty cheap copy and immediately bought it.
Really good game.

Rainbow Six: Vegas 2.

Best.
FPS.

Have.
Played.

Seriously, the game rocked. It had a pretty good story. Awesome gameplay. Better gun customizations than MW2 or COD: 4. The voice acting was....well generic but that didn't detract from the awesomeness of it though.
Oh, and I forgot.
This and every Tom Clancy game released for next-gen consoles apart from Conviction.
Vegas 2 was awesome, although I do feel they're murdering the franchise with a pitchfork.
[small] Fancy some coop? [/small]
[small] Eh, just joking. Damn final exams. [/small]

gunlok, Divine Divinity, Majesty: The fantasy kingdom sim, Mech warrior 4, warzone 2100, Morrowind, Space rangers 2, TOEE, etc. Basically most of my games, fuck other people I only grab games on a whim not some recommendation from someone I don't know and don't fucking care to know (except Scott Sharky, and Yahtzee of course) incidentally 5% of all games I own are shit.
Yeah Warzone 2100 was awesome, it's now free and being worked on by a group so no excuse for people not to play it.

Well, I got Chromehounds on sale for $30... and from it, I got 4 amazing years of what once was the best game on Xbox Live. I expected another mech game, but got something different...

RIP Chromehounds servers... I miss you already!

The Outfit and Zoids Assault.

The first, a really fun, co-op availible third person shooter, with RTS elements (such as placing reinforcements and gun placements and vehicles on the fly, and managing resources) and the second being a really challenging and fun turn based strategy game, a la 'Tactics' games, involving giant robot animals with guns and missile launchers on their backs.

I usually try and buy one or two unknown-to-me games from the used section every time I'm at Gamestop.

Geist

It was a unique take on gameplay, making it puzzle oriented while being first person, and having you take over people to fire fight? How awesome was that? I bought it expecting an average or so game to pass the time and found a game that suprised me so much that it's one of the best suprise games that's I've ever seen. Even better than Sly cooper, and that's a series that is just fun, Geist is like that, fun. Original, unique, and a time that is better than many I've gotten at games that are 3-6 times the cost if not more

- Batman: Arkham Asylum

I completely trust my gut when it comes to games, I made only a few mistakes. These were the complete opposite.

Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Originally as a gift I didn't realize what I had until I got out of that tree.
