    wow there is a lot of variation here. Updated minesweeper and a deluxe edition of solitaire. There are more of these kinds of gamers than i thought? Plus there is even variation among the 5 star top shelf games that people want.

    Good.

    Seriously, minesweeper rocks! I used to have one in the background everytime I needed a short break but still needed to be semi-working. Too bad I'm not that good at it though. I saw a friend once beat the expert lvl in under 2 minutes ...yeesh.

    I hate it how sometimes towards the end, you come down to a 50-50 choice and there's no way around it except to guess :( (well unless you use the cheat code :p)

    I refuse to buy StarCraft expansion 2. It only introduces slightly better graphics and a few new ships and items. Blizzard failed the release a fourth race. I am looking forward to Diablo 3.

    EDIT: StarCraft II is not going to be released until Next Fall or Winter.

    Where do I start.....Pirates of the Burning Sea is the game I am looking forward to the most.

    But there are lots of other games I am stoked about as well, in no particular order:
    Starcraft 2
    Spore
    World in Conflict
    Mass Effect
    Quake Wars
    HL2: Episode 2 (and of course, Portals)
    Hellgate London
    Eve-Online:Revelations 3 (if I can bring myself to get back into it, man that game can get punishing)
    Bioshock

    I honestly haven't been this excited about new games in a long time. The next two years are going to be a real drain on my wallet.

    I want Call of Duty 4. Looks to be an amazing tactical shooter, but not too tactical. Second on the Minesweeper :p

    Two Worlds, then Hellgate: London.

    of course starcraft II the most but that is most likely around 2 years off.
