I really have to play one of those games sometime. I'll probably get one the next time I'm home I guess.

I should play professor Layton's london life. I wanted to start yesterday but forgot about it.

I just realised that there is six Professor Layton games now. i haven't played them since Diabolical Box.

There are 7, two of which are not yet released, and 4 of which have been released in the west. That and a movie that has been released in the west as well.

Which one would you recommend? The Mysterious Box (I'm pretty sure that was the localized name) is the first one I think, but I'd rather play a superior game than the first in the series.

Pandora's box is the second and in my and my brother's opinions by far the worst plot-wise. Start with the first one, the Curious Village. It's simply the best one to start with.

Out of the two i played, Curious Village is the best, so I agree.

I played Half-Life 2 without really knowing anything about the first game, and I loved it. It would have been nice to have some background, but I enjoyed it very much nonetheless.

I prefer starting a series from its start. Like, GTA, the first couple of games are crap top-down shooters, but the series really started with GTA 3, and that's where i started. You know me, I'm a completist

Gotcha :p I've played Pokemon from the start, but most other game series I've just hopped into, like Soul Calibur, LoZ, Metroid, and I guess Mario (played Super Mario Bros. on the NES but not the very first one, or Donkey Kong)

My first Mario game was Super Mario 64 DS. I've never had a Nintendo console. I'm more of a PlayStation fanboy.

Except for a DS, right? :p I see. I've always been a Nintendo person, but I don't think I'll get the Wii U.

Well, a DS is a handheld, whilst the N64 is a console. I'm not interested in a wii at all.

Sunburn, you're missing a lot of good stuff :p

Diabolical Box's plot wasn't that bad in my opinion, but other two games in the first three games had better plots for sure. The Unwound Future remains my favorite game in the series.
