Are they the ‘epics’ of their time, or some things that are less well known?
Every final fantasy game i seem to play over and over again on loop, bunch of different iterations. Played the nes ff1, then the ps1 remake, then the GBA remake, and then the pixel remaster. Currently playing thr pixel remaster of 2. GBA was the only other version I played of that.
Every time Final Fantasy Tactics comes out again, I’m all over it.
• Rollercoaster Tycoon 3. Hate it or love it, I still think it’s an amazing game.
• Chuzzle Deluxe. Recently got back into it after purchasing it a few months ago.
• Zuma Deluxe. Same thing applies.
• Sonic Unleashed. Went from playing on PS2 to 360 to now Steam Deck. The 360/PS3 version is absolutely superior, though.
Any others I can think of are all things I started playing closer to when I was a teen, so I’m not counting them.
Final Fantasy 6 but, back in my day, it was called Final Fantasy 3.
Dungeon master and Dungeon master chaos strikes back
I’m midway through Oblivion Remastered and holy shit is inner 20s me ever happy about this raytracing thing
Quite a bunch, but the ones I come more often to my mind (and that are not DS titles, if not it would be Jump Ultimate Stars, Metroid Prime Hunters or Mario Kart DS) are:
Jackie Chan Stutmaster and Toy Story 2, both PS1 games (among other PS1 titles).
Still playing Call of Duty: United Offensive multiplayer on PC nearly every day
Morrowind, Shenmue, Earthbound, all the the Mega Mans, Starcraft
I’m interested in trying Shenmue after it was (to me rather surprisingly) awarded the “Most Influential Game of All Time” award by BAFTA.
How do you play it there’s days? Physical Dreamcast? Can you play it on PC? Emulator?
Rayman’s saga Especially Rayman 3 and Rayman 2, I am so excited for the upcomming fan-remake Rayman 2: Redreamed
I still love all of the 90s FPS games like Doom and Quake.
Half-Life 1 was the peak of this genre for me
Same. The rise of the boomer shooter was fun but you can’t beat OG.
Have you tried playing on a lower difficulty level?
I love you.
I’ll let my wife know that someone finally does!
Master of Orion.
Age of Empires

Half-Life 1 (and expansions)
SimCity 3000, SimCity 4
Vampire the Masquerade: Bloodlines

Zoo Tycoon
Leisure Suit Larry 7: Love for Sail
Morrowind
Industry Giant 2
Fallout 1/2
Arcanum
SimTower
Great list. I think I will replay about half your list at some point over the coming years. And might first time play Love For Sail as well.
I still play through The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past at least a couple times a year though it’s usually with the randomizer these days. It is objectively the best video game ever made, which helps.
What do you think of the other Zeldas in the same style, like Link’s Awakening, the Oracle games or Minnish Cap?
All good to great games that build on the foundation set by ALttP. I’d gladly play any of them if you put it in front of me but nostalgia demands that I push the one I played when I was like 9 years old or whatever.
