Sorry guys, it's been a while since I last read through all the new posts in this thread...
Just to help clarify things, I initially set up this thread to gather and share ideas for interesting and fun computer games in a variety of languages and on any platform or device. As we didn't already have a special place on the forum that was specifically dedicated to this area of language learning and practice (or at least I missed it at the time), and as I know so many of our members play computer games, I thought it would be helpful to start a new thread back in August 2015.
Personally for me, I'm looking for interactive and challenging multimedia games that are rich in both target language text (e.g., subtitles, cutscenes, surroundings) and quality accompanying audio. I often find that time just flies by when I'm playing an adventure game in another language that simultaneously presents both types of media; before I know it, I will have already spent countless hours immersed in fun comprehensible input and levelled up a bit more in that language (although it's sadly been a while since I've had the time to spare and enjoy this type of learning lately). I also enjoy watching other gamers chatting during "Let's Play" videos, as it can be a rich source of contemporary colloquial dialogue.
I agree with members like Cainntear and mercutio, however, that our list should ideally differentiate between operating systems, platforms, and devices, as well as whether each entry supports text, audio, or a combination of both in its respected target language. So far I've spent a considerable amount of time manually adding or editing each suggestion in our burgeoning list, and then replicating these entries throughout other language categories (along with who contributed each suggestion, what other languages the game might be available in, and links or notes on gameplay where available in each member's post).
As an initial labour of love, the list is far from perfect, and most probably chock-full of errors, as well as in need of a major design overhaul (we're a little limited with the forum interface in this respect). So I'm open to suggestions on how to format our list for the better, and I'll try my best to take your ideas on board, but keep in mind that it takes more time than it looks on the surface to keep everything up-to-date, and I'm overwhelmingly busy right now (hence my earlier hiatus). Indeed, if anyone would like to sift through what we've collected together up to this point, and present it in a more useful, informative, and readily editable layout, that would help me out tremendously (just PM me your proposed list, and if it looks good, I'll be happy to add it to the front page).
So far in total, I've updated our summary list 35 times, adding separate categories for at least 20 languages (ranging from Croatian to Turkish). I've also tried to add everyone's contributions as the posts come in, but apologies if I missed any of your suggestions in the process or simply haven't got around to it just yet. Our list has consequently grown in size considerably over the past 14-15 months, which is really great news overall, and I hope it has started to prove useful to members who may be unsure where to begin or where to look next when searching for computer games in other languages. For those interested in engaging interactive multimedia, computer games may be or develop into another great potential tool in our growing 21st century toolbox for second language learning, affording us another avenue to practise, contextualise and consolidate what we learn or already know, and I'd like to offer a big thank you once again to everyone who has contributed here to date - keep up the good work guys!
