Guessing the game from a screenshot seems like a bit of fun. Here's one to try (should be an easy one for metalheads):

^ Shit this rings a bell, I haven't played it but I recognize the art style. Something like "Brutal..." something?
EDIT: Brutal Legend, right?

Correct.

Portal 2. The potato is the giveaway for which one. 

This is from my top game for 2013.

Again, didn't play it, know the game: Metro Last Light :) I recognized it by the watch. I played a little bit of Metro 2033 but I dropped it for now. It had great setting and awesome atmosphere but gameplay-wise it was kinda clunky.

Yeah it is a bit. Last Light is much improved. There's the Redux version of 2033 now though which should be a lot better. I still need to pick that up. Not sure I'll bother with Last Light Redux though.

yeah, I heard about that. I think they should at least make Redux cheaper for those who own the original Metro 2033 (I have it on steam).

It was to pre-order, 50% off but they stopped the offer as soon as it was released. It'll go on 75% off or more eventually. Almost everything does.

Humble Bundle and similar is the reason why my Steam account is full of games I will probably never touch. Embarrassed

Only game I intend to pay full price for is The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt (well I get £15 off with standard Steam discount plus extra discount for owning an earlier title on Steam). I probably would have pre-ordered already but I'm wary of pre-ordering anything for which the system requirements are not yet out for. I think I will be OK (maybe not for ultra) as I have quite a decent rig (8GB RAM, 2GB graphics card, i5 quad core processor etc) but you never know, especially when there are some recent games I don't even meet the minimum for (The Evil Within).

YES oh man, The Witcher games are just genius!! I've been a fan of the books for like my whole life (Sapkowski is really big here in Poland, surprise surprise Wink) and the games are just as good.

I'm waiting for the rest of the series to be translated so I can finish reading them. We only have up to Baptism of Fire here in the UK.

I remember reading a little bit of english translation in a bookstore somewhere. Until I played the games, I couldn't imagine Sapkowski's juicy swagger sound as good in any other language than polish, but the dialogues in The Witcher 2, which imitate the style of the books, proved me wrong. I also played it in french, and it sounded good too! Although Geralts voice was terrible, unlike the english one.

EDIT: not that I think polish is superior, I actually think that on most levels it's inferior to english. It's just that The witcher books are written with some archaic phrases and unique stylistic edges put into it.

I ran across this Karmaflow The Rock Opera game by chance...no idea if it is any good, but it sounds like it would be of interest to metal fans.  http://karmaflowgame.com/
