New Super Mario Bros. U, which is a solid 8 to 9ish.

I liked the first episode. It had action and story development! I wasn't so happy with ep 2 but I guess we'll talk about that another time. The black incidental characters were a cool touch though.

Dang you with your bait-n-hook journalistic practices, cowman! Only giving me half an article and then wanting me to click for more! You cad! 

I was in the same boat of commenting at work but I recently started a new job and now I don't even have a computer to get on the internet with while working lol

I think the island/doctor game you're thinking of is The Secret Island of Dr Quandary. All of your descriptions line up. We had that game when I was a kid. Lots of good memories  I wonder how it holds up today?

I'm excited unless I get there and find no one has answered yet. Then it's boring lol

Dude, we cheapskates should form a club! Just don't expect me to pay any dues 

*quickly reads review* Hey, that does sound like a good game. Dang long though lol. I bet my wife would like it.

I want to get Lost Odyssey and Blue Dragon at some point (they're pretty cheap now) but I'm now familiar at all with Divinity 2. It's published by Atlus but that doesn't necessarily guarantee a great game. It looks good though.

You can easily play it in an evening, so jump on that when you find those ear phones! I've never played anything else like it.
