Well, "Wolfenstein: New Order" isn't bad (not great, but not bad,
although honestly I get all of the 'new' Wolfensteins mixed up with
one another). I'll always take another copy of a classic CRPG like
"Icewind Dale" too. And I'm always a fan of NeoGeo ports like "Art of
Fighting" or "Metal Gear". Most of the rest are low-tier freebies that
I've either never heard of (many don't even show up on Steam) or don't
excite me much.

So hardly a ringing endorsement of Amazon Prime gaming, or a
convincing reason to get the service if you've decided against it. I
mean, I'll be grabbing the games - because that's what I do - but am I
getting value for my money? If all I used prime for was these games,
probably not...

It certainly feels better than last month's and it does give me the
chance to play Icewind Dale again and see if it was as disappointing as
I remember.
