We mentioned some of our top game suggestions for this year in our last VodCast. We promised that we would follow-up with a longer list for each system to cover a wider range of games. This is the collection of those lists. Not all of these games are brand new, but almost all were released within the year. Please note the ESRB ratings for these games when you’re deciding what would be best for your family and feel free to comment below or chime in on the forums if you have questions about these titles. We’ll gladly get into more detail. (Chris can testify that I would easily talk anyone’s ear off about practically any of them. You should see how much editing he has to do on our videos. Once I get going…um…there I go again.)
Before I get sidetracked again, we present our lists. They are in ESRB rating order (lowest to highest) per system and alphabetical within the rating group. Enjoy!

Ok Guys. You made me do it.
I bought Puzzle Quest Tuesday afternoon for the PS2. So needless to say, I was up until 2:00 in the morning playing it. You were write. It is a great game for those of us somewhat addicted to the games where getting 3 jewels or whatever in a row is a must.
Keep on doing what you’re doin.

Dave,
First, I’m glad you’re enjoying it! I picked it up for the PS2 over the holiday as well. At $19.99 it’s a steal. I’m still playing the PSP version and I finished it almost a month ago. Still goin’ strong.
Second…I’m sorry. You will be missing out on some sleep in the coming month. On the plus side, it’ll be worth it!
