Before I begin, I'll have to ask you all to forgive my weird Blog Title, and blame Crabmaster2000. He comes up with the best ideas, using the games you've played to make a Blog Title. No copyright infringement intended. I just enjoy his awesome idea. Anyway...

Fire Emblem Awakening is the latest title in the Fire Emblem Series of Strategy-RPGs. Sporting an Avatar (Custom Character) Creation feature (This is actually the 2nd time the series has done this), 3D Visuals, and fun gameplay, all of these features combine perfectly to make one hell of a fun game. I haven't had this much fun with an SRPG in years, and I highly recommend it. It also manages to suck you in. Before I knew it, 2 Hours had passed from when I started playing it.

Foto Showdown DSi puts a new twist on the Pokemon Formula by using Photos. How? Well, you snap a picture with your DSi Camera, and a Monster will be made from it. You then use that Monster to battle with other Monsters in a tournament. It's pretty much a direct copy of Pokemon, but with Photos. It's actually pretty fun though.

Here's one I'm sure you all know very well by now. Fallout New Vegas is like a cross between an FPS and an RPG. It revolves around a Courier and a special Casino Chip that is stolen from them. Said Chip is the key to determining who will rule New Vegas in a Post-Apocalyptic Nevada. Crazy as it all may seem, it really is a fun game, and I'm really enjoying it.

Well, that's all for now. Check back later for more entries.

I've passed up New Vegas for a while now.  I think this is the year that I pick it up, seeing that you are exactly the fifth person to say they're having fun with it.

On another Obsidian note, I'm also aiming for Neverwinter Nights 2 this year, seeing that it hit GoG.  I'm kind of hoping I find the boxed Platinum version in my travels, but if I can't...
 
I spent nearly 45 seconds trying to google image search creatures people had made in Foto Showdown because that mechanic sounds so interesting. I didn't have any luck though  Sad
 
For the record, I though Foto Showdown was absolute garbage.  I bought it for $5 from Five Below, and immediately regretted it.

Fire Emblem: Awakening, however, is a completely different story.  I've poured ~20 hours into it so far and have loved it the entire way.  I'd put more time into it, but school is getting in the way (Damn you, accounting!).
 
@bombatomba: make it 6 recommendations. Unlike fallout 3, it doesn't take 2+ hours to really get interesting. Love it, played everything i could find...waiting to either find a friend or store with a copy of the ultimate edition I can borrow for the DLC.

 
@NeoMagicWarrior: Come on!  Two hours to get interesting?  Didn't you like crawling around as a baby, or going to the birthday party...  Oh, I see it now.
 
New Vegas was really great. I played that thing to death, and the DLC is interesting. I'd like to get FE at some point, as everyone seems to be raving about it lately.
 
I really want to play that Fire Emblem. Pretty jealous Wink
