Recommendations: The instant game?
WDot \| 8:20 PM on 11.15.2007	2 comments

Hey, I'm wondering if you guys can recommend an "instant" game. I tend to feel guilty about playing games recently because there's work I'm supposed to be doing. I know that if I start playing, I'll get really involved in it and boom! It's night and I have a test to study for.

Are there any games that you can truly jump in and out of really fast? Something that doesn't have tons of logos and menus to dig through. Honestly, I don't care if it doesn't have unlockables or a deep story or infinity things to do. It just has to be something I can kill a few minutes with and not feel like I have to keep going and going and going.

It would be best if they were for the DS or GBA. The consoles are in a whole 'nother part of the house and the PC is supposed to be for work (har har har.) What do you think?

Is this post awesome? Vote it up!

Pokemon Diamond &/or Pearl for the Nintendo DS has a save system you can do anywhere (outside of battle, that is), it's fast and easy and certainly a game with little or no pressure applied to it. Do you like collecting things in a game? I do, and a Pokedex is as good a thing to fill with entries as anything else. I mean, if you can stand a Pokemon game, I recommend it. It's taken up over forty hours of my time thus far.

Wario Ware. Pick up all of them if you haven't already. The first Cooking Mama is pretty fun in small doses too, and it's only $20.
