So the month of May is just about over, and what a month it has been! So which game was your favorite? How many have you played? Which do you wish you could play?

Creepy atmosphere, fantastic combat, and clever storytelling make Alan Wake's quest thrilling from beginning to end.

Super Mario Galaxy 2 is even more varied, challenging, and fun than its superb predecessor, making it the new standard for platformers.

This stunning Wild West epic raises the bar for open world action games, and stakes its claim as one of the most engaging games this year.

This kart racer has excellent creation tools and sharing capabilities, and thanks to great online integration, is both fun and easy to play with friends.

____

My choice is Alan Wake, for the game you need to play, the storytelling is fantastic and the world of Bright Falls is really amazing to wonder around in. Once you get through the first episode, you won't want to stop until you figure out how the story ends.

I have only played Alan Wake and Red Dead out of the list, but for game I would like to play I would have to go with Super Mario. I'm no fan of platformers, but the game just seems so well crafted that anyone would enjoy it.

I started playing Majora's Mask a few days ago, and along with Forza Motorsport 3 (which I also started in May) are probably my two favourites.

For the record, Alan Wake was my favorite game the month until SMG2.

For May,

No joke.

Of course I haven't played Red Dead (and won't until next year) and I've only just started SMG2. But to be honest it's not really grabbing me so far. :/

I think maybe I'm too picky. I never liked GTA serise so I never bought GTA4 and feel I might do the same for RDR.

I wish someone could help me decide is RDR a great buy regardless if GTA is not for me because I don't want to miss out on a great game. Are the people who are praising this game the same people who like GTA or is there something diffrent in RDR that makes it great for people who might not like GTA?

Man, I really HATE GTA, but so far RDR is definitely the best game i've played all year. There's a completely different atmosphere to it(and its not just cause of the different setting - the characters feel way more alive and the world is so vibrant) and it's a completely different experience. It's hard to explain, but rest assured the game is AWESOME.
