I'm looking for a new game to play. I want something that has a good story (something that has an "aha!" moment, or moments of discovery) and something that uses a good amount of brain power. I like Myst and Riven. I also like games with humor, like the Monkey Island series and Grim Fandango.

The question was asked what platform I have. All I gots is a PC running Windows XP.

That's a hard question to answer. First, which platform do you own/prefer? Typically, RPGs are a good start for story-based games. But lately, it's hard to recommend games for people looking for story driven games which does not involve extreme violence and controversy (most of them lack a good story). Go to www.gameinformer.com. They usually have good and impartial reviews of upcomming games and they cover almost all platforms.
As for recommendations: I heard Beyond Good & Evil is good and Psychonauts is worth to try (I played this game's demo and I was entertained). Both available in the original Xbox.

I don't know how much brain power you truly need for them, but for the story side. Any Final Fantasy or Xenosaga would be good.
Xenosaga is a 3 part game (last part shipped today so I will have it tomorrow :-D). I'd have to take a stab that the game is 75% movie and 25% game. You really only are playing the game to advance the story. Xenosaga does progress from 1 to 3 so don't start with 2 or you miss back story. You can pick up Final Fantasy anywhere. The only direct sequal is between Final Fantasy X and Final Fantasy X-2 (ten, two). Shy away from FFXI unless you want to get caught up in the MMORPG thing.
Both of the series are long games (needing 20+ hours to do a bare minium beatting) and the later games are visually stunning

properly i receives this really: Asus Z87 Gryphon/Asus Maximus VI Gene I5 4670K 500GB Samsung 840. 8GB (1x8GB) memory Gigabyte HD 7970 an inexpensive Random case,like the Antec VSK3000,could be more effective than sufficient. 500W power grant from corsair,antec,seasonic or between the best manufacturers. in case you want ATX: Asus Sabertooth Z87/Maximus VI Hero/severe (matter on funds) I5 4670K yet another low cost random case,like the VSK 4000. relax is analogous.
