So, I don't know about you, but when this week ends it shall be summertime for me. Nothing screams summertime louder than video games. Although my New Year's resolution is to read more books, I'm pretty sure that video games will most likely consume my soon to be unlimited time. I've looked through this infographic and I was pleased to see some of my favorite videogames of all time are on here: Portal 2, Mario Bros 3, Katamari Damacy, Mario Kart 64, Bioshock, Final Fantasy X, Okami, Shadow of the Colossus just to name a few. With titles like these, there's really no way of going wrong. This makes me all the more excited to check out the other games on this list that I haven't played. If they're even close to the caliber of the previously mentioned games, then I shall be a happy man.

Some notes of correction though… Okami should be under the female character branch, seeing as the main character is a fox goddess, also I believe that the Zelda games should somehow be under the ‘like solving puzzles?' branch because you gotta love puzzles to beat those games. Also, where's Pikmin? Such an underrated gem of a game. Let us know what you think of this infographic. Is it missing some of your favorites?
