Centipede Infestation turned out to be incredible.

Uncharted 3...I don't know why I expected anything.

Guild Wars

The title is just bad in my opinion. It doesn't really indicate the quality and scope of the PVE content the game has. I was pleasantly surprised by that when I finally grabbed it on a Steam sale a few years back.

Granted, I think some of my positive experiences were due to coming into the game after Heroes and all were added, making co-op play more optional than it might have been at the beginning.

Still, point is, the name makes it sound like a generic PVP game, and it's a lot better than that.

I played the Wii version. Apparently the two are very different.

Honestly Splatterhouse on Xbox 360 suprised the crap out of me. I did not think a game with the story that this one had could be so darn good. I have beaten the game around 3 times now and I still enjoy it every step of the way. I just bought the arcade port that came to the TG-16 and I am so eager for it to get here. I would highly reccommend Splatterhouse to anyone who is looking to get into an extremely bloody,witty, and all around fun hack n' slash game with a good storyline.
I am buying all Saturn games, PM me with your offerings and I will let you know if I need the game or not! (Everything must be CIB)

Currently trying to knock off all the sports games, would like to get them <$5 each! Of course if you would like to donate them I will gladly pay the shipping! :)

Haha no need to worry - I have Valkyria. It was the second game I bought for the console.
