Exactly What It Says on the Tin - an IFDB Poll
by Lance Cirone
RSS FeedTitles are a complex art. Sometimes they're deep and metaphorical. Sometimes they're catchy and fun to read out loud. Sometimes they're named after a quote or item in the game. Sometimes they don't even have any relevance to what's going on.
But let's give a round of applause for the more direct titles. On this list, games are simply exactly what they sound like. No lies, no clever mind games, it's more akin to an elevator pitch.
