Description Bored again, oh well, here are my top 10 games - with info! (Not in order btw)

1. Batman Arkham Asylum - Pretty much the perfect game IMO. Lots of stealth missions (didn't I feel sneaky swooping down from gargoyles? >: D), sleuth work and really simple combat (so much fun to just keep pressing X and occasionally Y and wash the baddies drop ). Not to mention all the extra stuff (the only time I'm bothered to take the time PROPERLY completing a game, doing all the Riddler's...riddles, and all that).

2. Bioshock 2 - Great storytelling, which is the main thing for me in a game, not to mention trying the good, neutral and evil modes and the different endings you get with them. (That has been in other games, but I don't think ever as successfully as here). And once again, lots of hidden little extras to find!

3. The Curse of Monkey Island - Ah, nostalgia! I never finished it when I was little (only actually managed that recently lol) but it's one of the funniest things ever created! (Madre de dios! Es el pollo diablo!) Not to mention it's the game which introduced me to the whole Monkey Island series, which is just plain comedy gold

4. Sam & Max (But my favourite is the The Devil's Playhouse season). BEST THING IN TEH WURLD!!!1. Just funny, really REALLY funny. Seriously the funniest thing EVUR! Funny. Funny thing is, I only found out about it through a link from a Toonstruck review page and when I saw it I was like 'WTH, some dog in a suit and a bunny, must be a kid's game.' But then I youtubed it, and I saw, that it was good! *Godly moment*

5. Zelda Ocarina of Time - Whoever says they don't like this game IS A FRICKIN' LIAR! Another nostalgic game for me, and (to my slight shame) I even have the soundtrack on my Ipod You've probably heard from the rest of the world how great it is, so no need for me to ramble on about it.

6. Discworld II - Another 90s adventure game. I didn't even know Terry Pratchett existed when I played this and the first Discworld game, so this was the first time I'd ever encountered the Discworld. When I did find out there were like 1,234,343 books though, I was so happy!!! Death must be one of my favourite characters in any media, ever!

7. Sonic Jam - I kind of cheated since I couldn't pick one Sonic game. Sonic Jam has Sonic 1, 2, 3 and Sonic & Knuckles - not to mention an extra 3-D level with stuff like videos, music and bios and all that. The only reason I keep my Sega Saturn around

8. Fatal Frame/Project Zero 2 - I love all the Fatal Frame games ('cept I can't get the fourth 'cos it was never released outside of Japan, damn you Tecmo!!!) but they are scary, REALLY scary. And as an avid horror movie fan, I don't get scared easily. Lots of backstory and hidden extras, which make me happy ^_^

9. Haunting Ground - A bit like Clock Tower 3 if you've ever heard of it, but I think a bit better. One of a few games where you're characters actually gets scared and it effects how they act (like if the main character Fiona starts to panic, she's practically impossible to control...which often leads to her dying T_T). All the creepier that you can't actually fight off bad guys - you just have to hide and hope for the best.

10. Toonstruck - Yet ANOTHER adventure game, but not a well known one, even though big names like Christopher Lloyd and Tim Curry provided voice acting (Rocky Horror Show anyone? ) It has an everlasting place in my heart for two reason - 1. It's FUNNEH! ('That guy's as camp as a row of tents) and 2. It's how I found out about Sam & Max. Shame they never made the second one

Hey, it's so cool you know about Discworld 2 as well! I loved to play this game when I was 14. I used to have a crush on Rincewind back then.

I couldn't, I didn't own a Playstation before, but I would have loved to play that game as well.

Yup, it was a loooooong time ago that I saw this game in a video store, and I think DW2 was also avaiable as a PS game.
