    REMINDER: This is not a definitive list of the best video games ever made but rather our personal picks for titles we reckon you NEED to play, and as such is in *no particular order*. These games have been selected with availability in mind, so a title won't make the cut if you can't easily get your hands on it today! OH, and Marvel's Spider-Man is coming to PC on August 12th & Persona 5 Royal is coming to Xbox Series/Nintendo Switch on October 21st (recent announcements).
    🎮With that said, how many of them have you played, and what would make your personal list? 🎮

    Great list! Although here's a few I'd add:
    Earthbound/Mother 2: Probably my own favorite game, but objectively a very influential JRPG that was WAY ahead of its time. Very unique playstyle that both mocks and celebrates RPG tropes. As funny as it is sad and heartwarming.
    Banjo-Kazooie: While Mario 64 established the 3D platformer as a genre, Banjo-Kazooie did the same with the 90s collectathon genre that many have replicated since. Fun, funny, and arguably Rare's magnum opus.
    Street Fighter 2: I'm surprised that not a single Street Fighter made the list! It's the first game I think about when I think "fighting game." And this one took the elements of the first game and greatly improved on them to make one of the most popular games to play competitively of all time.

      My top 3 in no specific order that left a big impact on me at least:
      San Andreas opened the scope for me of how big video games could be as I was used to more linear games with stricter rules. As soon as I got it, I would easily spend days in its world just goofing around and always finding things to do, sometimes it really felt like I could do anything in it. So much to explore and interact with, there was nothing else quite like it and those that tried, failed to replicate its magic. I don't think a video game will positively surprise me so much again and get me lost in its world like this one has.
      Silent Hill 2. I had low expectations due to the bad voice acting but I would soon find out it's all part of the plan and was immersed fairly quickly. This was also during a time where I would normally skip cutscenes because I was a big gameplay guy however, I was so intrigued here I didn't skip the cutscenes this time. The tense, heavy atmosphere that would often turn depressive, the way the characters were acting, the ballsy imagery displayed, the monsters, all connected through a narrative that is laid out in such a brilliant way that I don't think it will ever be topped. The game is also constantly messing with you psychologically, especially in the Prison level/area and I lowkey enjoy that.
      Burnout 3 was a game I got for my birthday and just like San Andreas, I could quickly tell it was special. The tight controls, the risk reward design, awesome sense of speed, the crash mode, taking down rivals through the takedown mechanic, the fitting music, the memorable race tracks being all interconnected between continents, it was almost flawless and it holds up well. Whenever I go back to just play a little bit, I end up playing for way longer than I intended because this game incredibly good at sucking you in if you enjoy arcadey racers.

      ​@@wcskeleton1388 well there's Civilisation, Starcraft and Tetris so we can thank our lucky stars that these genres haven't been completely overlooked. And maybe (just maybe) Mario Cart is there as a nod to racing/driving games, although it's not exactly a serious example, is it?
      But let's be real... This list is very heavy on certain genres and exceedingly light on others, if they get touched at all. Sports sims are a thing for example. Not my thing but I would still expect to see a couple at least.
      I'm not saying this list is all rubbish. A lot of it I would absolutely agree with. But I definitely think these guys would benefit from broadening their horizons if they want to appeal to a broader audience beyond the action/adventure/RPG crowd.

      I honestly haven't played most of these games and I'm 30.
      When I was kid I mainly grew up with 30 games total from age 6 -14.
      Mainly n64, gamecube, gameboy advance, & the wii.
      I kind of grew into this habit of replaying them so much that because most of the games are essentially never-ending or if they did have a ending they didn't take long to beat.
      SSx 3, ssx tricky, tony hawk 3, underground 1+2, mario party 4, harry potter 1-7, super smash melee, animal crossing, quidditch world cup, guitar hero 3, wii sports, scooby doo night of 100 frights, rugrats royal ransom, pokemon gen 1-3, dragon quest monsters 1+2
      Then I started playing world of warcraft in 2008 and other mmo's in early 2010's.
      I quit those on and off until 2020
      2019-2022 I sold off my childhood games as I no longer wanted to revisit those titles anymore.
      Now days
      I've been buying most of these games I missed out on, but lack the energy to play through them is real especially the long established franchises like Zelda, Assasin's creed, Resident evil, Mario platformers, Metroid, Pikmin, Bayonetta, Final fantasy, far cry, halo, dmc, gta.. etc...list goes on...
      Basically any game that reminds me mmorpg mechanics ruins most games for me.
      All i play these days is simcity 2013, age of empires 2 &4, palworld, satisfactory, & railway empires 2.
      It sucks because I really enjoy j-rpgs too.

    A Hat in Time: A modern 3D platformer that is full of fun and joy that is available on most current platforms.
    Mario & Rabbids - Kingdom Battle: A enjoyable, comical, strategy shooter game. It may get mixed response due to the Rabbids themselves, but it works overall. Plus the music is bumping.
    Bloodstained: RItual of the Night: A spiritual successor to 2D Castlevania games. Full of quirky characters, a large castle, and all kinds of gear you can use to fight the monsters and spirits.
    Night in the Woods: A modern tale set in Possum Springs of anthropomorphic people where reality, dreams, and music blend to create a strange and relatable story.
    Resident Evil 1 Remake: A staple in the horror genre that can scare you and even make you feel awesome when you get used to what's going on.

    Great to see Sonic 2 on the list. 20 years ago, you could always be sure that either Sonic 2 or 3(and Knuckles) would show up on lists like these, but over the past decades a notion has popped up that "Sonic was never great to begin with". The crappy modern Sonic games have tainted the classics games so much that a lot of people (especially younger people) simply cannot comprehend that the Sonic series was ever in a state where most of its games were masterpieces. But back in the day, Sonic was just as critically acclaimed as the likes of Mario, Zelda and Metroid.

  • @wovenowl7535

    Honestly I'm kinda surprised Night in The Woods isn't on here, imo it's a great game in the sense of what it lacks in gameplay and mechanics it makes up in stellar realistic characters.
    We all know someone like Gregg, an anarchistic fun loving guy with some deep seated self-esteem issues. We all know someone like Bea, an intelligent person who you believe would go to college only to be held back by life issues working a limbo job. The game just has characters and issues that everyone can relate to, especially if you live in a small town seeing businesses that were once thriving boarding up their windows.
    It is an amazing, simple, fun to play, and easy to look at game (well more of an experience in my eyes) that I believe everyone should give a chance. Not to mention the soundtrack is a banger. If you have the time, look up Rainy Day by Alec Holowka or even just the title music. Plus the game is only 20 dollars so you're not gonna be breaking the bank.

    Another Underrated Xbox game is Subnautica: an underwater builder/surviver game. You are the lone survivor of a downed spaceship on a mostly aquatic alien world. You go deep into the ocean to find still deeper chasms, leading to even deeper cave systems that go down further still and unlock terrors on a level much more real than most horror games..
    Armed with only dystopian nerfed defensive weapons you encounter massive leviathan’s that will swallow you whole if you let them, and probably more terrifying still; underwater sorcery can send you teleporting randomly to another location.. ANYWHERE on the map! The inconvenience makes the fear even worse 😆
    Air supply, battery power, food and water and health are all constant consideration, and you can play hardcore: one life!
    I’ve had the game for years now and I still love it so much, and it’s a unique experience I would recommend anyone check out

    While I do appreciate the addition of Batman Arkham Asylum on this list, I would say as someone who's played all the games on Hard and NG+ multiple times over the years (I've always been a lifelong fan of Batman anyways lol) that Asylum's direct sequel Batman Arkham City is the better game is almost every way!
    If Arkham Asylum is Nolan's Batman Begins then Arkham City is The Dark Knight of video games! I am not mincing words here. Arkham Asylum is a great game but it is often recommend as the starting point to get people into the Batman Arkham games in general. The game is self is simplistic in being a more classic Batman story with accessible and fun gameplay, but Arkham City takes all of that and dials everything up to 11! The story is darker and more complex, the combat is expanded upon and more varied (assuming you're actually using the new gadgets and techniques in freeflow combat rather than sticking to the one button strike and other button counter Asylum ingrains in you to use) and they make the game truly open world with the Arkham City itself unlike the separate but small open areas Asylum gives you.
    I often do tell people to that if they are only going to play one game in the Batman Arkham series games then play Arkham City instead. It does help if you have played Asylum first but over the years I've felt it's not always necessary.
    Arkham City is the Uncharted 2, God of War 2, Mass Effect 2 and Borderlands 2 of the Batman Arkham series! With better story, map/level design, bosses, and expanded combat/stealth that compliments each other so well I will probably never stop praising the work and passion that Rocksteady managed to put in this game. It you really haven't played Arkham City yet and only stopped at Arkham Asylum I would say you have NOT fully experienced what these Batman Arkham games have to offer!

    • @tinkerer3399
      @tinkerer3399 Рік тому

      I also preferred Asylum (with the exception of the ending). Although a portion of that may be that maybe due to the fact that the two times that I played through City the game glitched out and prevented me from getting 100% completion (and two different glitches as well). Additionally I greatly preferred the Asylum Riddler trophies and some of City's content just seemed like busywork. But the two are so close in my personal rankings and there are many things that City does better as well, but if I had to recommend just one I'd probably go with Asylum as well. But seriously just play them both.

    Thanks for another supermassive list of video games, I always look forward to these videos the most and this was one of the best I think. That being said:
    Superliminal - a spectacle of a puzzle adventure that'll resonate well with anyone that enjoyed Portal. Its narration is charming and tells a sweet message.
    OMORI - an emotional roller coaster of an RPG that stands as an excellent serving of innovation and charm. Not for the faint hearted though
    Amnesia: The Dark Descent - one of the best horror experiences of all time and still holds up as terrifying while telling a very intriguing story through notes scattered throughout the game
    DDLC - like Deadly Premonition, this one's not for everyone, but the people that like Doki Doki Literature Club REALLY like it (myself included), so it's worth finding out if you'll be one of its fans
    Banjo-Kazooie - I can't believe how well B+K holds up as a 3D platformer today, from the music to the level design and pacing. It's readily available on Xbox and Switch as well. I played it for the first time this year and adored it.

      agreed. I think anything older than those can be quite hard to get and quite expensive too. Thankfully many of those games on those consoles have been remastered or you can get them through online stores etc. so a lot of them are still included here. But yeah...really you can find a lot of those games and consoles pretty easily still even today. 90s stuff a little harder.
