The 'Games you need to play before you die' Thread

[ITSMILNER]

As the topic suggests I think we should make a list of the top 100 games every gamer should play before they die everyone add your suggestions and we'll see what we come up with in the end (Maybe we could get this sticky by a mod )

I'll Start

SUPER METROID



This was the first game I can remember that ever truly sucked me into it's world, with great atmosphere, a tense feeling of isolation and great pacing it was an amazing experience from start to finish that I'll personally never forget. It also featured amazing graphics with detailed backgrounds and character sprites that all helped add to the overall experience one that I feel every gamer should try and with it being available on the Wii's virtual console it's not hard to get hold of.

In before the OOT

[Hero of Canton]

Donkey Kong: Jungle Beat - because it's where Super Mario Galaxy came from. And it contains the best six seconds of any videogame ever made.

[Captain Kinopio]

Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door

Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door

Most underrated game ever?

Or at least, most under-remebered (if that makes sense)

[Akai XIII]

[Uppa]

Wave Race 64. Experience something truly magical, conveyed through brilliant music and gameplay that totally eclipsed the competition -- and thoroughly underscored the capabilities of the Nintendo 64. Don't miss it. Please.

And MUST be the original NES version, no remakes, no VC downloads!

[Jimmy Shedders]

The best Zelda game ever.


EVER

Also, maybe a list in the OP would be good? And we could vote things out and in to come up with an epic 100?

[Captain Kinopio]

Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door

I'm not sure how many people ever got round to playing it but it certainly shows up Super Paper Mario for the festering turd that it is.

[Crimson]

One of the best stories ever told in a video game and the best dialogue ever written. It must be played by all.

[Rax]

PacMan
Asteroids
Breakout
Pong

You gotta play the classics!

Then play Half Life2 and GTA: Vice City

[Adam Ash]

[Peter Crisp]

This may be just in my top 3 but Bloodwych.



I loved it .

I would honestly consider Yoshi's Island to be a perfect game. It has incredibly appealing visuals, musically it's a dream with many excellent tunes and the gameplay is tight, polished and incredibly rewarding. A true masterpiece.

'Cause it's a unique gaming experience and still remains the most immersive game I've ever played.
