@DrkPheonix: I don't play TF2...yet. I know I'll love it and I don't have the time to put into it right now. If I ever were to play it i'd def get it on steam, thanks.

@Koda89: I consider 3 decent games in a summer month a relative success at this point. Add DQIX to the two you mentioned and eh, it could've been worse.

Shocked not to see a SCII cover, not complaining though I love that DQIX art style. I'll eventually get around to picking up that game. Man, Limbo, DQIX, SCII, now that I think about it July wasn't too shabby.

@Metallipod: I dig it.

MVP 2005 was the last great sports game I really got into.

@JetLeeroy: I enjoyed Winter's Bone as well, but haven't seen those others yet.

@JetLeeroy: Hopefully by "this decade" you mean 2010 onwards. If so I sort of agree. I'm not a huge Nolan fan, but Inception wasn't his worst. I also found Toy Story 3 and Shutter Island more enjoyable than Inception, but to each their own.

@justagamer: This is sort of why I'm afraid to start a re-play of FFIX. Though it is long overdue that I do so.

For the true cinephile out there who would like to see a film far superior, and of course different, from Inception, go see The Kids are All Right, it's wonderful.

I really wish this wasn't my answer, but back when I played WoW I remember an Serpentshrine Cavern raid that was going particularly poorly that I must have been on for about 7 hours, with probably an hour of playtime before and after it as well.

I'm looking forward to the expanding library of steam games for Mac. I downloaded Steam, but have yet to buy a game, mostly because Braid and the Orange Box are already readily available on my 360.

I love pieces like this. Both Totilo and Andrew Leonard convey such heartfelt questions.

Not only does it have adorably creative aesthetics and gameplay, but it raises philosophical questions that will force us to question the very fundamentals of gaming itself.

I finished Professor Layton and the Curious Village, which was awesome, and because I'm going to be away doing some traveling I just picked up The World Ends With You so I could play it while away next week. I'm excited about it.

@Kryptolojik: Which did you prefer, killing or saving them all?

After many years of passing it up, I've finally started Bioshock. Little late to Rapture I guess, but let's see how this plays out shall we? Anything I should be aware of during my first play-through?

@Erwin: Out of the five I've read my favorite is Bluebeard, but I do love Sirens of Titan.

If you want something different, yet incredibly interesting, try Sirens of Titan by Vonnegut when you're done with those three.

At this point, I feel like most people in Japan who'd play Final Fantasy 13 in the first place would have already played it on their PS3. What size market there could possibly want the game and only own a 360? Doesn't seem worth it, but heck, why not if it's cheap to do.
