You had me at nudity and strong sexual content.

definitely been looking forward to Red Dead Redemption for a few months now. I've even planned my gaming "schedule" around it so that I should be done with any rented games I have when it comes out.

Little youtube screen there, but it looks beautiful. If I may use that adjective about a bloody shoot em up.

I didn't see any nudity or sex and I sat thru the whole thing.

Somehow the possibility of seeing nudity in a video game is almost more exciting than actual porn. I've been looking forward to Red Dead for awhile and that just sealed it.

i was big on tower defense for warcraft 3 (custom games)...that looks pretty cool...just wish i would have gotten it when it 400 points too...
i downloaded the demo last night, liked what i saw and unlocked the game...im looking forward to playing it tonight

I finished portal last night and I really enjoyed it. There were so many great moments packed in the three hour run time. I'd like to see a proper shooter use of the gun. I think it would be really interesting.

The initial Alan Wake impressions are off the charts. Might be a Game of the Year contender.

I've been looking forward to that one, and to Alpha Protocol, which is an espionage RPG by Obsidian.
