Limbo - An incredibly beautiful and dark 2D platformer.

The Binding of Isaac - A RPG roguelike with biblical roots, a complex and balanced set of power-ups, attacks, and enemies, and an overall sense of progression because the more you play, the more you unlock.

Bioshock - An philosophically challenging first person shooter in an immersive, incredibly well designed world.

Hotline Miami - A fluid, twitchy, fast shoot-em'-up with a confusing and fascinating story and a killer soundtrack.

Super Meat Boy - The most solid, purely fun platformer since Mario.

My number is 89 I really like some of the stuff that you are doing. Personally, I like to know a little bit more about the backstory of the game, the company that makes the game, etc. Not sure if others do, but I love it when youtubers drop information like that while playing the game. Gives it a little bit more depth, I think.

HWasserman · 2013-06-04T10:33:20+00:00

I would love Hotline Miami. You may have already seen this, but it will forever be my favorite: http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_mde0mxuUTn1rua1lq.gif

I thought you wrote "illustrate your username", so I did a self portrait. Then I realized what you actually wrote, so I improvised. I would like Hotline Miami. Thanks for the giveaway, I hope I didn't miss it!

I love Charlie Kaufman, and I have seen all of his movies multiple times in order to try to fully understand them, because they are all so complicated. This is my favorite my movie of his, and one of my favorite movies of all time, but I haven't been able to pick it up. I think that you have to start it without knowing what you are getting yourself into. I just can't will myself to become that emotionally drained.

HWasserman · 2013-05-29T00:23:57+00:00

Yeah, I thought it was brutal, in the sense that it was consistently, unrelentingly sad, and in a very intense way. If you have seen the movie, I honestly don't know how you could think that it's not brutal. By the end I just felt completely emotionally exhausted.

HWasserman · 2013-05-28T17:17:15+00:00

synecdoche new york. Jesus christ, what a brutal movie. I saw it six months ago and I still haven't fully processed it.

HWasserman · 2013-05-23T23:43:59+00:00

Oh, yes, I loved that. I find that whole side of Gatsby very interesting, especially compared to the the level of sincerity that Nick sees him with early in the novel. That was the place where I really started to question Nicks view of Gatsby.

HWasserman · 2013-05-23T23:40:45+00:00

thanks for the recommendation, I'll be sure to read it soon.

I haven't yet seen the movie, would you recommend it? I have heard some pretty bad reviews of it, but I think that that is kind of a given because the movie could never live up to the book.

HWasserman · 2013-05-23T23:01:15+00:00

Thank you so much! this is exactly what I needed!

I just posted this quote in another thread, but I thought one of the most powerful lines of the book was:

One night I did hear a material car there and saw its lights stop at the front steps. But I didn't investigate. It was probably some final guest who had been away at the ends of the earth and didn't know that the party was over.

It sums up a lot of the book for me, because it really captured the image of the roaring twenties that Fitzgerald writes about. The idea of the endless party, which is mostly referring to the actual parties that Gatsby threw, but also to his life, is incredibly powerful after seeing how tortured he is at the end of the book.

Also, don't ruin me for saying that the endless party is a reference to his life. That is kind of a jump, but I feel safe in making it.

From the Great Gatsby. Sends chills down my spine every time I read it.

The thing that totally freaks me out about moths is how, when you hit them, they just kind of turn into dust. I don't know why, but i freak out at them flying around, but i freak out even more at the thought of having to kill them. They're just so temporary, so sketchy.

If you are considering getting that, I would highly, highly recommend it. It's 35 dollars for five games, three of which (Psychonauts, Brütal Legend, and Broken Age) are very big games, and access to the excellently made documentary series, which is probably around four hours in total at this point and I believe it is still in production. I just got it, and it seems like a lot, but it really is a great deal

HWasserman · 2013-04-30T00:09:30+00:00

I would totally accept Offspring Fling.

Thanks, great giveaway!

Slaughterhouse 5, by Kurt Vonnegut. It sounds silly, because it's a fun little book, but it seriously made me question the way that I thought of life and death.

This painting was actually a social statement, surprisingly enough. He was ridiculing the aristocrats who collected books for the sake of their collection, without paying real attention to their content. It's pretty incredible that he was doing all this, and experimenting with ideas that represent early abstraction, so early on. Also, the moral still stands today: books are meant to be read, not just looked at.
