My Favorites
Listed in alphabetical order; I like them all for different reasons, and can't compare them to each other.
List items
-
I only play the Japanese version with the Project Nemo fan translation. Great music; good twist; very difficult game.
-
Short but sweet. That first story cutscene breaks my heart.
-
Great music; good story; very fun. Young fighter pilots learn that war is bad.
-
I'm terrible at RTS, but I still sank countless hours into this as a kid. Never beat the Joan of Arc campaign.
-
Simply classic.
-
One-of-a-kind. The mind-bending spatial puzzles become scarcer as the game goes on, but I still love this one.
-
Makes me laugh, smile, feel smart, and feel dumb.
-
The game so nice I bought it twice!
-
A guilty pleasure. FVGK the walking tank level.
-
Occasionally funny; kind of scary; had a blast.
-
That Errant Signal video put it best: it's like being a kid smashing toy cars together.
-
The JRPG supergroup game. Music, story, art style: incredible.
-
So much fun! Not a fan of the final boss.
-
Rolling start!
-
Not very scary, but I had a great time. Some good psychological horror, and I like the twist.
-
A childhood favorite! Excellent music, spooky atmosphere, epic climax.
-
Classic lived-in world design, and open-ended approaches to your objective, beyond just the first level.
-
Mods are a must. One of my comfort games, in which I've spent over seven hundred hours.
-
I'm still bad at RTS, so I usually treated this game like a sandbox with totally broken custom games.
-
Need I say more?
-
I'm terrible at this, but I love everything about it. Very campy, music gets me pumped, too fast in the best way.
-
Hammer-ons and pull-offs are too hard. Even though I can play guitar, I still play this every so often, since I can't summon up a band to play with on a moment's notice.
-
A great sequel. Still can't beat Free Bird on Expert.
-
I teared up a little at the end. Boppin' music.
-
Emotionally intense. Not a hard game, but I felt my heart strings pulled.
-
The best superhero game.
-
Unique gameplay, great music, campy fun, climactic final level.
-
The best Iron Man game never made (with the expansions.)
-
My first Zelda game. Drown the monarchy, and let the people prosper.
-
My go-to game as a kid.
-
Made me cry a few times. Brilliant theming.
-
Love me some chaos.
-
Great music; good twist; pretty fun. I even love the rover and its mostly empty planet levels.
-
Another game with a great soundtrack. Not very good at it, but I love it all the same.
-
Great music again!
-
Too much bloom, but otherwise beautiful. I don't hate the swimming. Some of the best music in the entire series.
-
Maybe too much content; slime might be OP. I play the botched WiiU port of the 3DS version, but somehow I still love it.
-
Had a blast! Great music; the monsters look and sound great; every weapon I tried was fun. I wish the tracking were more fleshed out and didn't rely on the fireflies.
-
I did shed a tear at the end, despite myself. Navirou ain't that bad.
-
Beautiful; I love the puzzles and their theming.
-
Short and sweet. I love me a transforming car.
-
Hours of fun as a kid, and one of my first modding experiences.
-
OFF simply is.
-
Beautiful in every way. I'm sure I teared up once or twice.
-
I love a game with unorthodox melee combat.
-
Another heart-string-puller. Maybe the perfect game for me.
-
Mostly, I love the final extra trail in the first game. Second game made me mad a few times. Haven't played the third.
-
My childhood comfort game. Doesn't hold up so well, but I still love it.
-
Gold was the peak of Pokémon for me; the detailed sprites and vibrant colors blew my mind as a kid.
-
This is all I wanted out of a new Pokémon game. Fun, wholesome, and the remixed soundtrack is pretty good.
-
I love the moody atmosphere. Despite being so short, I got a lot of mileage out of it.
-
I love a game with unorthodox platforming.
-
I love everything about this game. Another one that's only as long as it needs to be.
-
Using the engine from Hulk: Ultimate Destruction makes this game much more fun than it has any right to be. I like the story twist too.
-
I prefer the Wii version and it's light-gun-style gameplay. Campy in all the right ways, and it ramps up perfectly.
-
Got this one by mailing in box tops. Still a good time.
-
Steam says I've played this for over 250 hours; I was sure it'd be more.
-
The music alone would have won me over. Probably teared up at the end.
-
The combat sucks, especially against the green mech suits. Still a lot of fun, and often funny.
-
Bought this when it came out, and was not disappointed! The tribal and city stages are miserable, but I still come back to it every so often.
-
I never owned it as a kid, and only got to play at a friend's house. It's still incredible in every way.
-
EA can bite me. Pandemic knew how to make a Star Wars game.
-
Just the Wii version: motion controls are fun :)
-
The story is awful, Luke Skywalker's voice actor is hilariously bad. I love this game.
-
Not as polished as Jedi Outcast, but you start with a lightsaber this time, so that's nice.
-
The best Star Trek game... except for the sequel maybe.
-
Kickin' music; hard as nails; Sonic wishes his games were this fast.
-
Rhythm game nirvana.
-
A faithful adaptation of the platforming from Prince of Persia into a 3D environment.
-
Some of the music is awful, it's broken worse than a Triple-A Game on release day, and I love it.
-
Empathy, the game.
-
Telltale peaked early. I teared up a few times.
