[quote name="Senor Barborito MetaFilter Post"]nthdegx: I'm outting myself a bit more here than I'm entirely comfortable with, but . . . on a whim about six months back I went through GameFAQs and just started typing down all the titles I'd played significantly (beaten, mastered, got my epic mount, whatever). The result was about 450, 400 of them PC games. I may not have a life, but I think I've earned the right to say that I have been searching for diamonds in the rough. I have played Half-Life 2 through twice now, and sadly I don't hold it in the esteem you do. It's a great, even amazing game, and I think that as a total package it is a more enjoyable game than Planescape (both share significant pacing flaws in the middle, though). But in terms of game writing - and I don't mean text but rather narrative, dialogue, and characters - I have yet to see Planescape's equal within those 400 games. posted by Ryvar at 9:26 PM PST on November 16 [/quote]
