Games to practice prior to coming to PAX

I mooted this thread idea on the IRC channel and they seemed to like it so blame them if you think it's poopy! :lol::lol::lol:

There are free play rooms and other newer games at PAX and I thought, surely there are some games people should brush up on prior to coming to the event just to make sure their 'memory muscle' for these games is relatively strong. The list below is my first stab at it. Feel free to add and take away from it:

Rock Band
Guitar Hero 3
Mario Kart Wii
Super Smash Brothers Brawl
Buzz (PS3) <- Applies only to Europeans!
Gears of War
Call of Duty 4
Halo 3
Geometry Wars: Retro Evolved 2
Castle Crashers
Soul Caliber 4
Bad Company

I'm sure there is more to add to this list but I guess this will do for now.

    Definitely the drumming part of Rock Band. I can't wait to get my hands on that Ion Drum Rocker, and while I'm not a drummer in real life I'd still like to not look like an idiot when I sit down on Harmonix's drum throne and try to play some songs with it.
