I am surprised people are still buying Black Ops off steam. Seems like sales would drop after the DLC was delayed in such a way.

I played the dragon age 2 demo, and it was pretty sweet... I see rift is up there in the charts, but it seem to me like no one is really giving it that much credit

I'm surprised the Sims got so much coverage on these lists, particularly Sims 2.

I am surprised that people like the Sims 2 much more than the Sims 3, but it does make sense.

RIft? Not sure why this game is being swallowed up by so many people. Looks like the same old song and dance we've had over the oast 5 years. Guess Im out of the loop for MMORPGs

Rift is a great change of setting and lore for most WoW players. Of course, you'll need a pretty recent PC to take advantage of what it offers.

Battlefield is hopefully going to rock these charts and Skyrim will blow them out of proportion!

Set your profile picture as a Creepy Clown. Why? Progress is impossible without change.
