The only game name that comes to mind with a goddam comma

Advanced Dungeons & Dragons: Eye of the Beholder II -- The Legend of Darkmoon


Oh Gygax, must we owe you everything?

Pretty anticlimactic ending isn’t it? For our all our technology and polygon-flinging machinery, someone making their own pen-and-paper D&D campaign can think up a longer name.

Know of something longer? Post it in the comments below, but be aware of some of our criteria. First, we pick the longest from a series, not list them all (Sam & Max, Strong Bad etc). We also tried to stick to US/EU/AU releases, so some insanely long Japanese battle rape sim doesn’t count either. Can you out-Beholder us? Give it a try!
