I have been using video games as a mean of learning German and it works pretty well. I just wanted to share a few titles that work nicely for me.

Epistory (typing game) great to get used to writing simple words but the story can only be listen to in English.
Knights of honor (a grand strategy game), nice to expand vocabulary and seeing over and over again the same words, can be easily paused to translate stuff
the curse of monkey Island (point and click), the vocabulary is much harder here, but the voices and text are really well made.
I have not tried it, but I also saw Wonderlang which is a RPG specifically dedicated to language learning.

Does anyone have other recommendations, for German or for other languages?

If you like point and click, I heard the Deponia games are good. "Edna bricht aus" und "Harveys neue Augen"
