Just finished 4 years of grad school...

...and now I am going to treat myself to a game on Steam. I have been following games the entire time I was in school, but only really played World of Warcraft and Dragon Age Origins.

What are some of the best games that I missed say 2 or 3 years ago? I ask because these are the ones I will most likely find discounted on Steam. Thanks for the recommendations!

Grab the Witcher 2. If you like strategy get SC2. Portal 2 is also a must though short.

crysis 2, mass effect 2, the witcher 2, mount and blade warband, civilization 5, shogun 2, assassins creed brotherhood, or AC2, Red Dead Redemption. all fantastic games pick what ever genre you favor you cannot go wrong with any of these.

Portal 2 for a first-person puzzle game with excellent humor (also, get Portal 1).

Crysis 2 for fun alien-bashing shooter, and Crysis 1 also

Warhammer 40k: Dawn of War II for squad-based strategy,
or Supreme Commander if you want to build bases.

What graduate degree did you pursue? I got lucky and finished mine in two years.MythPro1

Masters of Business Administration. I was working at the same time, so I was taking only a class or two a semester - hence the 4 year plan.

don't worry man, its going to pay off. Sure, you'll be in debt for a decade or two, but you'll be living comfortable and working a job that others would kill for.
