Hey man, that post is a mouthful to read. It took me about a full minute to actually find out what you were asking. I think you could get significantly more responses to your post if you formatted it properly. Try using spoiler tags to section off your information. Next, make your question bolded or the first thing you ask. As for what suggestions I have, I would recommend any game that has come out in the past 3 years that has nice eyecatching visuals and fast-paced gameplay to keep your viewer hooked. Some excellent games with decent eyecandy are :
  • Guacamelee,
  • Insurgency,
  • Warframe,
  • BlackOps3[Controversial]
  • Wolf Among Us
