Will I enjoy Glory of Heracles even if I don't know anything about Greek Mythology?

not really. The other two games are much better and you'd have to read a lot of bonus exposition to understand everything.

Kirby Mass Attack. I have and love both but Kirby lasts longer and has more reasons to go back and play it. If you can though get SF3D later.

Solatarobo or Aliens Infestation?

Solotarobo. I like RPGs way more than shooters.

Single most replayable non rpg, puzzle or nintendo game.

Come on! This is a life or death situation!

Most Replayable game eh.

Dragon quest ix
Ninja Gaiden Dragon Sword (not really replayable but very hard and will take a while.)
Rune Factory
Grand theft auto chinatown wars
Advance Wars days of ruin

Alright Solatorobo new vs FInal Fantasy iii, advance wars days of ruin, and Luminous Arc used.

Final Fantasy 3. The job system is pretty good and you'll get a lot more hours out of it than any other of those games. I have 40 hours in mine.

Yes, it doesn't dig deep into Greek mythology at all. If you enjoy common and generic RPG's with a couple of nice touches, you'll enjoy this game.

Is Professor Layton & the Last Spector a good place to start if you've never played Layton before? Because I want to play if Layton Vs. Ace Attorney is really coming outside of Japan.

@Link245 - I think it is. Last Specter actually starts a new 3-story saga that predates (chronologically) the first three games, so it's not like you'd miss anything plot-wise by starting there (even though the series already does a good job with that part as well). Also, it includes a 100-hour bonus RPG, provided you don't live in Europe, so that should keep you busy for a while more.

Super Scribblenauts is better than Scribblenauts. Right?

@Oddy - Super Scribblenauts has better controls and level editor, as you could build a level and decide the goal, where as the original had weaker controls and you could only pick from levels that the game creators made but on the original you could program/tell things what to do, like have death attack maxwell, a boot or guard something as examples. They are both really good puzzle games and it's going to depend on the controls and level design you want. I like them both but the second is most likely better just due to controls and building levels from the ground up, though I had lots of fun with the original also. Just so you know the games have a crashing problem where you can easily make a whole lot of objects or massive explosion that can cause slow down or freezing, but it's rare and as long as you don't over load the bar limit you should be fine. Your more likely better off with the 2nd one Super Scribblenauts with it's better hints, controls and level builder

Thanks, I'll pick it up tomorrow then.

the only Metal Slug game you ever need is the collection on Wii

I saw Rhythm Heaven at Toys R Us for $9.98. I didn't get it, mainly because Skyward Sword and Mario Kart 7 are right around the corner and I would have no time for it.

-50 interent points.

I am extremely disappointed in you, son. You are unfit to be called 'gamer'. That game is easily worth the $34 I payed for it, a and to pass it up for a measly $10 is an absolute disgrace. words can not explain how pathetic that was.

I recommend Prof Layton

Metroid Prime hunters, Star Fox Command.
