Forum: Games

sup, what are everyone's all time favorite video games and why?



might be clear by my page, one of my favs is team fortress 2, its just good dumb FPS fun (and its free!) also i just love the characters/comic series too lol. :-)

i also love animal crossing! it can be so relaxing and nice. my first in the series was wild world, then new leaf and now new horizons.

& as for story based games my favorites are undertale and night in the woods, theyre both very dear to me :')

Here are my all time favs:
  • Super Smash Bros Melee
  • Super Mario 64
  • WWE Smackdown! VS Raw 2010
  • Kid Icarus: Uprising
  • Rayman Raving Rabbids 2
I also enjoy Visual Novels, like Katawa Shoujo or Doki Doki Literature Club. This year I've been getting into horror RPG's as well; I got to try Aria's Story, Ib, Mermaid Swamp, Mad Father, Yume Nikki, Mogeko Castle, OFF, Angels Of Dead, and Misao. I also have fun with gachas, but I'm only playing Love Live! School Idol Festival All Stars at the moment, which is also a rhythm game. Speaking about rhythm games, they're dope! Parappa The Rapper and Rhythm Heaven Fever are my two favourites.

I always need more suggestions to video games, I got back into gaming a couple of years ago so I’m still very uncultured in most games and series, but these are a few of my favorites from recent years.


• Overwatch
• Breath of the Wild
• FFXIV 
• Life is Strange
• Rogue Company

If anyone has any suggestions for me I’d gladly love the advice

Some all-time favorites:

Halo: All the weapons mattered, enemies were actually fun to fight, and it's also my main source of inspiration for level design and really everything.
The Longest Journey: When I see TLJ I think of The Longest Journey! It's a point-and-click adventure game from '99, very immersive world, cool characters, and... obtuse puzzles. I also like the modern sequels, Dreamfall: The Longest Journey and Dreamfall Chapters.
Tony Hawk: I don't find it challenging or that interesting to play anymore but these games inspired me to skate, and the secrets are fun to find. He's also a fun meme now.
Ittle Dew: Not a fan of Zelda knock-offs but this one has its own weird charm and identity. It also did optional puzzle rooms before BotW!
Seiklus: It was the first exploratory platformer game I've played. If you were making indie games back when MySpace was around you probably also played this game. It inspired Knytt.
Fable 2: I didn't care for the first one. The second one though! It was an RPG that was really about the role-playing, not numbers going up. I loved that the NPCs and towns were "simulated", even though it was completely pointless. Fable 3 was good too. Come back Peter Molyneux. :(
XCOM Enemy Unknown: This one made me really love tactics games. I also love Valkyria Chronicles (an anime third-person shooter crossed with turn-based tactics) and Xenonauts (a throwback to the original X-COM).
Gran Turismo 3 A-spec: This is still my favorite racing simulation game. The Forza games are good too but I can't stand the Top Gear people. I loved doing the driving tests and getting my car washed, not joking.
Ratchet & Clank (2016): This is my favorite Sony game on the PS4 (my second favorite is Everybody's Golf). I never played the original Ratchet & Clank, which this is supposedly a remake of. A perfect podcast game if you skip the cutscenes!

I'll think of more later!

  • Scribblenauts Unlimited: I had a lot of fun with the notebook. I played this game a lot when I was little.

  • Street Fighter 4: I also played this a lot when I was younger. It was my first ever fighting game.
  • Skullgirls: I like the more stylized look of skullgirls.

  • Final Fantasy X: Played this game recently. It's one of the best RPGs Iv'e ever played.

  • Saints Row 3: This is the best Saints Row in my opinion.
     
  • Castle Crashers: A game I rediscovered with my friends. It's a blast .

  • Bioshock: I'm not really a fan of FPS, but I like Bioshock. The underwater atmosphere is great

  • Doom 2: Modded the shit out of this game back in 2019.

  • Pokemon: Alpha Sapphire: This is my first Pokemon game. After Pokemon Sun I realized Pokemon sucked, no one actually plays the card game, and Hoenn is the best region.

  • Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 4: This is the best Tony Hawk game in my opinion.

  • Dead Rising 2: Played this game with a friend. It's a pretty damn good game.

  • Splatoon: I had a lot of fun with this game in 2015. I was very excited to see a new IP from Nintendo. I'd say it's the better game out of the two.

  • Bully: I had fun beating teenagers up in this game.

  • Street Fighter 3: I like this game for the roster and the character animations. Every game below this one sucks.
  • The Binding of Isaac: I played the hell out of this game. It almost always has me coming back for more.

  • Halo: Combat Evolved: I played the shit out of Halo on my laptop before you could buy it on Steam and you could get it off of Abandonware. The servers were a bit barren but I still had fun with the people I could find.
My favorite genres are Fighting and Platformers. I normally try to look for a game with a style to it. And if its kind of realistic in graphics I want them to be unrealistic in concept. I refuse to play Call Of Duty. Some games get a pass for being realistic. For example, Saints Row 3 gets a pass for taking itself less seriously than Grand Theft Auto.

I love the Kingdom Hearts series, I believe I was 10 when the first game came out and Sora is 11 in that game, so we're like, technically the same age! Even though 3 took years to release. But that's okay. I still love KH3 and play it often even though the DLC bosses and enraging me. xDD

Portal 2 all the way. I love physics and I love the concept of portals. I’ve been obsessed with it ever since I heard about it and saw the trailers. Ive gone through so many speed runs of the game and I’ve put well over 1000 hours into the game

 Skyrim: This game ultimately has kept me sane since it came out. It gets old playing over and over again but with mods the possibilities are endless!!

Of all time? Chrono Trigger.

The one I've spent the most time playing in the last few years though is Overwatch. I still play it for multiple hours on a daily basis.

Ironically, I haven't touched Competitive mode in like a year. I only play in Arcade.

morrowind and quake are probs tied for my favorite games of all time. morrowind was my first open world rpg and i still can't get over how fun it is to play, especially with the modding community. quake just really tickled the brain of young angsty me for the gameplay and aesthetic and still does, but nowadays it's more about the chunky aesthetic.

rdr2 is up there and so is nier automata because the stories in those games are wowie and also pew pew cowboys and slish slash waifus.

oh, can't forget the witcher series. those caught me by surprise. i sank so much time in those games. witcher 1 is hella good for the lore imo, but 3 really takes the cake.

No order


1. Fallout 3/Fallout New Vegas
My drama club quote AND college graduation quotes were from this franchise, I love it so much.
2. Genshin Impact
I think I like it a little too much, send help.
3. Minecraft
I just think that getting trapped in mines with your friends while you both yell over voice call is a fun time.
4. Dance Dance Revolution
Bright colours, music, usually in malls, a dance game... I see no reason to dislike.
5. Just Dance
I just love to dance.
6. Project Diva
I LOVE Vocalo.id songs and I think the videos are cute.

I assume that so far a ranking of my fav games would be something like that:


01 Final Fantasy VII
02 Final Fantasy VI
03 Final Fantasy IX

04 Chrono Trigger
05 Metal Gear Solid
06 Persona 2 (Innocent Sin & Eternal Punishment)
07 Crash Bandicoot 2
08 Donkey Kong Country 2
09 Super Mario 64
10 Dark Souls

11 Shadow of the Colossus
12 Resident Evil 2 Remake
13 Half Life 2
14 Resident Evil 2
15 Super Metroid

Final Fantasy VII was my first rpg ever and it just blew my mind at the time. Plus, it was the reason why I started studying foreign languages and music. A few years after that I played some other games and VI and IX are those that I loved the most. Those classic FF games hold a very special place in my heart.

Chrono Trigger always gave me a weird sense of nostalgia. I saw some pics of Crono back in the day, but I played it for the first time around 2012. It's such a weird feeling: everytime I get back to it, my mind goes back to an imaginary time where a younger version of me would spend many hours finding a new secret in that game that would define his childhood.

Metal Gear Solid is the first game that made me live through a movie (the first tear I shed in a videogame was because of Wolf's death) and Persona 2 just brings me back to those sweet years (the fact that the story was one of the best I've ever experienced surely helps).

Well, I assume I'm quite a nostalgic person. Even the more "modern" games in this list (Dark Souls, SOTC) gave me vibes I always craved for.

And yeah, I know that there are some games that I'm pretty sure will end up somewhere here after I played them, such as Metal Gear Solid 3, Xenogears and Silent Hill 2.

Red Dead Redemption 2. An unpopular opinion, I'm sure. I absolutely LOVE the story. The graphics are beautiful. I can spend hours hunting, bounty hunting. I even like Red Dead Online.
