Labor Day is the time that some Americans get an extra day of weekend to recharge. In celebration, we're running features on great games that you can start and finish on your day off.

These games were selected personally by each Game Informer editor. All of them can easily be completed in one day. You'll even have some extra time left to barbeque. These games prove that, when it comes to video games, longer isn't always better. We're kicking things of with a classic – Super Metroid. Check back here as the day goes on to read more of these features.
