Between the gameplay, beat-em-up action, character selection, and campiness, this game was way better than it deserved to be.
Recently played through beyond out of curiosity, and while it has a lot of problems, it was really enjoyable the whole way through. I kept wanting to know what happens next and just when I thought the game couldn't do something to surprise me it did.
There are a lot of neat scenarios here.
Also it's easily the best hobo simulator ever made.
Today, I'm loving the series and played every canon MGS game + Portable Ops.
Most recently for me: Wasteland 2.
It had ALOT stacked against it for me:
-never played the original nor any of the games it inspired (Fallout for example)
-disliked the drab looking environments; post-apocalyptic in general does little for me
-thought the animations looked janky in preview builds
-recently played Divinity OS and thought there was no way this could live up to that game
Despite all this, I played until nearly 2AM tonight and still didn't really want to quit. I'm kind of shocked aim digging it so much as someone who never played a classic CRPG (until Divinity OS earlier this year that is). But this game is genuinely great, despite some rough edges/quirky menu systems.

Yeah it was a God of War knock off but it was still fun as all fuck and played amazingly well. I rented it to whore gamerscore and wound up loving it.
After being burned badly by the 3DS version and not hearing fantastic things about the Wii U version, I got this for christmas, tried it out and it ended up growing on me. It's not amazing and it does fall apart near the end, but it's got a few stages I come back to every now and again and the Zelda DLC was a nice bonus.
Velocity 2X surprised me by combining two genres perfectly, making it accessible (never have I been angry at the game) and making it very satisfactory. Getting through a level? Easy. Getting a perfect? Not so easy, but so, so, so satisfying. I'm not usually one to go back and perfect missions, but I think I will with 2X.

Mini Metro is a strategy simulation game about designing a subway map for a growing city. Draw lines between stations and start your trains running. Keep your lines efficient by redrawing them as new stations open. Decide where to use your limited resources. How long can you keep the city moving?
Just recently Pac-Man and the Ghostly Adventures has turned out much better than I expected.
Bought just because it was on sale and it's something I can play when my daughter is around but I've been playing it even after she's went to bed.
What's wrong with the 3DS version of it? I was considering getting it at some point.
Oh wow. That's kind of cute. Will try out.Mini Metro.
Saw a post in the Steam-thread about it getting an early access-release. Looked interesting so I tried the alpha-demo on the website and was hooked. Bought it with my remaining Steam money and so far I've been playing it for 18 hours.
From the Steam store page:
Never played a Shining game before in my life but I was surprised at how much this clicked with me.
Zack & WikiDo people think they're cool when they just drop a picture with no description in to these threads? Should be bannable.
This turned out to be a very enjoyable little experience.
