Check this out. I scanned this two page ad from a magazine when the game was coming out.

There was also a tie-in comic. I only got the first issue though and scanned the cover.

I guess it would be the trailers for Demon's Souls. I still get goosbumps watching them.
Hearing that Haloesque music in an early trailer for Destiny really got me going too.
I've always wanted to play this. I have a copy now, just need to find the time.
It probably doesn't matter, but I just read The Divine Comedy again. Not sure how much of the game is really from the book, but it should be interesting to see anyway.
When it was compared to GOW, I thought, great! I could play a good GOW clone. GOW is like the best. Glad to hear it's a bit different though.
Cool!
I'm playing Luigi's Mansion right now on my Wii. I might finish it tomorrow (uh, later today now). I'm totally loving it. I have Dark Moon too. Played it some, but will go back to finish it sometime.
Goes on my list. I see it's available on Wii-U Virtual Console. That's a plus since SNES games are getting pricey this days.
Happy late Halloween. I was working late that night. Saw it all from the road.
i didn't really intend to play any Halloween games this year, but I ended up playing Luigi's Mansion and Castlevania. I also bought Silent Hill HD Collection.
I don't play many horror games, but my favorite might be Condemned: Criminal Origins. I love the hand-to-hand combat in that game. Having only melee weapons for the most part makes enemies much scarier.
Pizza. Everyone gets pizza.
I added Syndicate to my list this week. That's a Starbreeze game I didn't know about. Gotta try it.
Can't think of one off the top of my head. I can think of a lot of books though. I guess I don't really look for story in video games or for some kind of important effect. I mean, I've been wowed by the art in games, the music, the execellent gameplay, but when I think of what you're saying, I can only think of books I've read. Those have affected me deeply and changed my life in subtle ways. I haven't found a game that has done that for me, and I don't think I expect a game to do that. Games feel more like sports to me. I'm in it for the action.
