    I'm interested in Bastion, but I have other games to get through, so I'm waiting on a Steam Sale.

    Stanley's Parable looks pretty good.

    Yay, I loved the first one of these.

    Outland is amazing - a gorgeous game which controls like a sports car. The red/blue shifting really forces you to think beyond just simple platforming. And Bastion is defintiely one of the best games of the year.

    I can't remember if you brought this up in the previous reccomendation episode, but Infinite Space is what I've been playing at the moment, the rather groan-worthy fanservice and sometimes frustrating lack of direction is made up for by interesting combat and the attachment that comes from naming your ships and customising them, then seeing them kick ass on the battlefield.

    Outland looks cool.


    If the president had any real power, he'd be able to live wherever the fuck he wanted.

    alot of those games look amazing. I've been meaning to give Bastion a play through. Just been really stuck in LOL lately.

    I'm so glad I bought Bastion.

    I played oGame pretty hardcore for a long while and while it was fun if you have any kind of social life I would not recommend it at all.

    Someone in a previous EC thread was wondering where all of the commentary about it was...turns out they have their own forums. Here's the link to today's episode as per the Episode Notes: http://extracurricular.tk/forum/viewtopic.php?&t=528

    I'm surprised no one ever mentions Champions Online in topics like this. The way the game let's you build your own class from literally every power in the game, with almost no real cross-class restrictions is just SO MUCH FUN. Heck, I go in there and tear apart my higher level characters like once a week, and just spend hours in the power house trying out new powers. And when you've finally got a fresh build that's fun and cool, you leave the power house and there's a whole freakin' game out there! Throw trucks at criminals and punch them off of roofs and envelop them in nightmare constructs or whateverthefuck you want to do.
