362nd played so far Genre: Strategy Platform: PC Year of Release: 2001 Developer: Ensemble Studios Publisher: Microsoft Game Studios This is a game played out of order – Age of Empires is the parent series under which Age of Mythology falls – but we’ve played other games out of sequence before, so who cares, right?

356th played so far Genre: Role-Playing Platform: PC/Xbox 360/PS3 Year of Release: 2006 Developer: Bethseda Game Studios Publisher: 2k Games/Bethseda Softworks Yeah, we played Morrowind fairly recently.
