Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that's an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I'll go first: I think "Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows" was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

Definitely a good call to wait until you have a decent rig... its optimization is NOT one of its selling points lol.

But if you've got a machine that can handle its clusterfuck of code, it's an absolutely gorgeous game -- here's a good short showcase of some of its scenery / critters:

Good luck with school! I'm doing the whole full-time-work + part time college thing right now too, so I definitely appreciate the time management clusterfuck... and Ark is one of the games that can absolutely MURDER your free time (no shit, I have over 6k hours logged). Keep it bookmarked in your brain though, or wishlist it and pick it up when it goes on some insane sale.
