It's pretty easy for me to list my favourite computer games because many of them have a high amount of replayability. Incidentally, this means many of my favourite games reside in the role-playing and strategy genres. Disgaea 3:The game has the same wackiness that the first entry in the series has, whereas Disgaea 2 didn't re... More..

Microsoft had enjoyed having the only next-gen console out on the market for quite some time, but they lacked a killer game.
