How House of the Dead trumps Halo is a mind-melting oversight.

May I just ask, have you played House of the Dead: Overkill?

But it was a decision, I made because I do like the Halo series, and poured way too many hours into it, I still don't love the series.

I'm calling sheningans on this one unless you actually played the game in Japanese!

[Vampyr]

I'm sure it had Japanese source code.

Don't try and be funny, you know what I meant!

[Vampyr]

It's true, I don't think I've played any games that start with 'Z'.

I have Zeno Clash on Steam that I've never played, maybe I should install it.

But if I do that, then I might have to start installing every game I buy on Steam, and that would just be crazy.

Wouldn't it be 'Zeruda' instead of Zelda?
And perhaps you played Zelda II: Adventure of Link?

Gamefaqs lists it as Zelda.

And nope, never played Adventure of Link.

Played some Zeno Clash earlier today, it's alright. A little chaotic trying to time stuff when 3 or 4 things are attacking you though.

No, like most of the planet earth. That's my point. Half-Life 2 is at least a reasonable alternative to the obvious.

But that's MY point, you can't say I shouldn't include something when you haven't played it!

I've played all 3 games and went with the one I enjoyed the most. Like anything else on the list.
