Generic media recommendation count log
So I've got a fun social survey project idea.
Whenever I run across a thread asking for game recommendations, with no criteria attached, I'm going to write down what games get mentioned.
Whenever I run across a thread asking for anime recommendations, again with no criteria attached, I'm going to write down what anime series get mentioned.
Needless to say, I will NOT count my own suggestions. in fact I will try to stay out of them, if I am using those threads for the purpose of this log.

Happens rather frequently on the Steam forums. Can dig up more threads if you want me to show you right now :P
Generally speaking, if you go to a community about A, to find threads asking for B, you'll get this.
Also, updated with more things in that ongoing anime recs thread on Steam.
http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/12/135509823669306204/
It's locked, and there are no recommendations given yet. And the OP technically does give criteria, but it's just hardware specs.
If recs are given I'll add them to the list.
http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/12/135509823668006494/#c135509823668295494
I'm sorta using whichever one is more accessible in my mind since I'm not really trying to be rigorous with the naming here.
http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/12/135512625256405421/
oops, i did kinda comment on the first one, but i'll just leave my suggestions out and record everyone else's. fortunately i didn't really have much influence if at all on the suggestions.
Funny thing is that each one of these had been mentioned multiple times before, except MadoMagi.
I think I've run across one or two book rec threads but they are few and far between.
aaand done.

added more. including more anti-recs.
Amusingly, Yuri on Ice is now both recced and anti-recced.
also lol http://steamcommunity.com/discussions/forum/12/135514649165217028/
only response #2, though, because after that point, the OP gave a criterion
