Ton of GameStop Gift Cards. What Good Games/Consoles Are There?

[AnimalCrossingcool]

I have ~$150 in gift cards for GameStop from Christmas. What's good to get with them?

It all depends on what kind of games you enjoy. It's hard to recommend stuff when we have no idea what you're into.

Something relaxing... Not in the mood to go all out war on a video game... School's stressful... :/

I'd say give some of the Harvest Moon games a shot in that case. They're not really stressful as they're more about micromanagement which can be a real blast. If you're looking for something laid back for the computer, I'd say get Rollercoaster Tycoon 2. You can't get it from gamestop but it's worth it to sit back and relax.

I'm not really good with the relaxation genre, so you might have to wait for someone to come along that knows more about it than I do. Sorry.

Elmo Sports. Nothing is more relaxing than making Zoe ride a tricycle.

In seriousness I would recommend Terraria, Sims, or Trine I or II.

Ok. Thanks!

If you're looking for pure relaxation, I'd recommend the Journey collector's edition. Now, I haven't personally played it yet, but I've heard many good things about it and am planning on getting it soon. It's 25 dollars for three really relaxing, atmospheric games. I think they'd be perfect for you to unwind with.

Journey is very relaxing. So is the Persona games, when you're not dungeon crawling, you're relaxing. Fun stuff.

Hey I just checked their site and they're giving away COD Black Ops from 19.99$.
