I thought there were emblems for rating games GS didn't rate, am I imagining things? I have 5 so far that they haven''t rated, including the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown. Also, isn't there one for having a crazy scores off from what everyone else says, I think I should be getting close to that one too! I have an anniversary coming up this week, and a new job starting on the 22nd, good times! I posted a review for Gangster Squad on my blog, if you're interested.


Keep Calm and Game On.

Lords of Shadow is a gem of a game. Have fun with it! :)

@pokecharm About 15 to 20 hours I think. Sounds like a lot but the story was really compelling for me so I didn't mind.

@fend_oblivion how long of a play-through do you think I can expect?  dare I dream about finishing more than two games this month?

@pokecharm I meant mine in terms of lifetime completion. I don't know, it's like I'm barely making a dent in this nightmarish backlog of mine. Shamepile more like :(

I really did like both of the reviews and that queue is embarassing mainly because of how it would look if I put my list of games partially played and completed up and how it would make me look.

  the only list that I would have that would be longer might be the wish list or the not yet played lolz


I do want to get started on DAO but I really should finish at least one game !!!

@iowastate I need to cull my wish list, I think.  But the queue is being dealt with, slowly but surely!

You're slowly getting there! Your backlog is shrinking ever so slightly. I've started polishing off my own, i finished Dark Sector, got back into Dungeon Siege 3 and have restarted Alone in the Dark (to remember all the controls).

@Katzenbalger I know, I'm so excited I'm making progress!  is that sad?  Alone in the Dark isn't a long playthrough, give it a chance!

@BenFireFox the order is just in how I bought them.  Truthfully, I'm playing the games in order of impending sequels and then preorder stuff I got :)

Dang, this looks like a lofty goal.  Good luck.  I noticed that you had NHL 11 on the list.  Are you a hockey fan or better yet, play hockey?

@Garrison_Ford I'm a season ticket holder with the Caps, I got that game on a lark, but never play it, I should really trade it when they have a deal at Gamestop.

@pokecharm Awesome!  I'm a Sabres fan (I grew up in Buffalo) and I was an Atlanta Thrashers fan until they were sold to Winnipeg.  Sad times, now I can't watch live hockey anymore unless I'm out of town.

@Garrison_Ford I love hockey, but I'm pretty upset with the NHL and Caps right now...after the lockout, I expected more...deals or something.  Instead, I'm paying full price for my tickets basically.

Good luck on your record.

@stephenage you know, you say that every time, and every time I look and don't see it :p  I am all over the place...maybe once I get to it I'll be able to fix it ;)
