What is the best name of a video game?

Street Fighter

I totally forgot about Kenka Bancho: Badass Rumble. That's a preeetty sweet name.

Okami is pretty great too, since it's some sort of pun in Japanese if I recall.

9 Hours 9 Persons 9 Doors is a very evocative title. The shorthand name '999' works just as well, too.

It's sequel is called Virtue's Last Reward, which is a bit weak if you ask me, but the original Japanese title is apparently Good People Die.

GOOD PEOPLE DIE

Now that's a strong title. Sure it's edgy as fuck but it immediately grabs attention and sets the tone for the game.

Other favorites: FEZ, Super Hexagon, VVVVVV, Divekick and Blur.

@graham_nix: Virtue's Last Reward isn't a weak title. Just think about. The final reward of the virtuous is death.

Yeah, I read upon the double meaning of the title (It's an actual reward -> being virtuous/compassionate is good / 'last reward' is an euphemism for death -> being virtuous/compassionate will get you killed), but it seems a little too much of a stretch to me.

'Virtue's Last Reward' makes me think 'hmm. Oh, I see what this is about', while 'Good People Die' makes me go 'oh fuck what is going in here'. Maybe that's just because English is not my first language and I had never heard of the phrase 'last reward' before.

I'm pretty sure Bad Dudes beats out everything else.

@graham_nix: As a native English speaker, it makes perfect sense. Though if it's your second language, I could see how you might miss out on the meaning.

Mirror's Edge. Gemini Rue, Far Cry, and this only has a teaser, but Sunset Overdrive is a fucking amazing name for a game.

No One Can Stop Mr. Domino

bitches.

Flower

WARGASM

full stop, thread over.

Charles Barkley's Shut Up and Jam Gaiden

@soapy86: Success! Mr Nick Rox voices a Snakelike character in straight up dog time.

I completelyforgot that that existed. It is a good name, has a nice flow to the sound of it.

@cubical:

Are you sure you want to use that first picture?

VIDEOBALL

What about Scoregasm?

OutRun

Also

Moon Patrol

Remember Me is a really good title for a game, I thought. Very strong.

Barkley Shut Up And Jam: Gaiden

Wait, is "Also" a title of a game, or do you just mean OutRun and Moon Patrol? If Also is a name of a game, then that is a pretty cool name.
