Whenever a new Grand Theft Auto comes out, I buy it and plan to use nearly all my free time playing through it. It's better just to get in it, get expert, and get it over with. Then I can return to a more normal life. It's the same obsessiveness that makes me a pretty good coder, I suppose. Usually, the only other games I play are ones recommended by a friend in the gaming industry. He introduced me to Braid. Sometimes, I'll play a game which gets a lot of coverage in nerdy, non-gaming channels, like Portal. (by the way, I'm currently fighting the urge to run out and buy Red Dead Redemption)
