Ran across this article today on Extreme Tech's website. Anyone bored of their current game collection and looking for something to play on the cheap? Some of these don't look too bad and they are mainstream, not the cheesy web games. Article is a reprint from last year but still valid. Played one to two myself a while back. The List

Some nice games on that list, I have about 6 of them myself including the full version of Diablo III. :D
You just have to watch you don't get caught up in the money making side of some of the games and fall in the trap of buying all the upgrades and extras. :eeek:
That way the game can soon become very expensive.

I'm surprised NFS World is on that list. Compared to when the beta became open to now EA has completely ruined the game. Before you could actually buy things after a day or three of grinding. Now the car prices have inflated immensely and it seems more and more things have to be bought with real money rather than before when they were free. The world population has also gone down a lot. Takes quite a while for one to find a race, let alone a race with closely leveled opponents. I know that they need to earn money from a game, even if its free to play, but I feel like they went overboard. I'm just venting I guess, I used to really enjoy the game when it came out but now I just can't stand it. :cry:

I did scroll through, but no Hearthstone? I play that most nights casually to pass a bit of time sometimes and I find it fun.

I have played a couple just for fun but never got too interested. Thought I would like Neverwinter Online and played the closed beta. Was a big fan of the original and thought the Foundry would have been nice, make your own quest/story. That premise was based on my previous experience with some mods in the original. I did not like the game and I already play Guild Wars 2, one MMO is plenty for me.

Hearthstone missing. As in any top list of any kind, it is subject to the reviewers bias and personal preference. Reminded me of this, the birth of art and the art critic.
