Borderlands 2 for the 360.  The world of Pandora drags me in for a second go. 

Did you get into six days in game hours yet?

Sadly, no.  I do remember purchasing and playing pretty much straight through til I beat it.  Have revisited with the DLC.  Enjoying again but straight non stop on release burned me out for a bit. 

Ultima Series.  Played 4 when I was younger.  Purchased the series special sale on GOG.

I remember hearing from a friend that if you get into six days of gaming hours (144 hours) that the game freezes up and can't be played. dunno if this is true or not.

I hadn't heard about that would be curious, I think I'm around 60+hours now on it.

Have you ever considered Midnight Club, or are you into racing simulators?

I've got Midnight Club LA.  That was a pretty fun game but I got bored with it kind of quick.  There were plenty of tracks but after a while they all started to seem the same.  I'm mostly into sim's but I love a good arcade racer too, like Motorstorm Pacific Rift, and Grid was a lot of fun too.  Grid 2 is coming out in a week and a half, but right now I'm saving all my fun money to build a gaming PC so I won't be buying any more games until later in the year.

Try Midnight Club II, it has difficulty spikes in it for a challenge.

I think I might have mentioned it in the other Video Game thread, but the other day I downloaded the latest Call Of Juarez title, Gunslinger on the Steam engine.  Not a bad game! Well worth the $14.95. The graphics are a hybrid of cel-shading and regular level design. it's actually quite cool to look at!  You could do worse for $14.95

It's MUCH better than the Atari 2600 version of Pac-Man!

I just got the Legendary edition of Skyrim today for 28 bucks with my trade-in credit.

Hurray, finally! No freezes, lock-ups, and no odd graphical glitches like floating horses...AND you get all three DLC packs with it too. Gonna' be startin' over again and maybe see what I've missed. I'm not far in so it won't take up too much time....yet.

When I get my gaming PC built that's definitely going to be the first thing I get for it

A while back, but I purchased Lego Star wars episodes 1-6 from Steam.

Downloading the Skyrim Legendary Edition from the Steam Summer Sale for $36.  

Picked up Shift 2:  Unleashed for $10 too.  Downloaded a mod that improves the handling and the AI behavior, turned off the in-game anti-aliasing and used Nvidia's anti-aliasing instead, and now it plays and looks pretty darned nice.  No achievements in the PC version though
