What are your best gaming experiences which you believe everyone should experience?


Mine are:

1. Breath of the wild
Beautiful, calm, tranquil, encourages exploration like no other game, screams attention to detail and perfects all the small nuances of open world games

2. Mario Odyssey
Nintendo shot it out of the park with this beauty, its just beautiful level design combined with best in class platforming with ridiculous charm.

3. Dark Souls
Such a beautiful, frustrating and emotional experience

4. Legend of Heroes - Trails in the Sky/SC, Cold Steel 1/2
A beautiful set of games which all tell absolutely beautiful well crafted stories, specficially trails in the sky. Best IN CLASS storytelling.

5. Fire Emblem Awakening/Conquest
Phenomenal yet accessible modern tactical RPG where your characters aren't just disposable bland sets of stats (aka XCOM)

6. The Last of Us
Takes cinematic video games to a new level.

7. Tomb Raider 2013
I really really liked this remake and felts its far more balanced and well paced than its rival Uncharted.
 
Bloodborne

TLoU

Breath of the Wild

Red Dead Redemption

Nier: Automata

Silent Hill 1, 2, 3

Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1, 2 & Defiance

mavity Rush 1&2

Bioshock trilogy

Yakuza series

There are quite a lot of them but these spring to mind immediately.

EDIT: Forgot about Mafia 1, shame on me.

I'm currently playing a game called Hob and it is absolutely fantastic. It's a kind of old school Zelda type game. And it looks absolutely incredible.
 
I'm going through one of those phases where I feel bored of gaming. Taking a break right now, but this thread should be handy for when I'm ready to jump back in!

Got TLOU Remastered to play through and Battlefront 2 to finish on PS4.

PC: Half Life 2
PS3/4: The Last of Us
Xbox: Halo: Reach
 
In no particular order.....

F.E.A.R

Half Life 2

Bioshock

Metal Gear Solid 4

Uncharted 2

Last Of Us

Mass Effect 2

God Of War 3

Street Fighter 2 Turbo

Deus Ex Human Revolution.

Nothing from the current gen in my list so far except maybe God Of War 4 and Forza Horizon 3.

Is RDR worth playing now or has it aged badly?

Played through it recently for the first time on XB1X. Couldn't get through it back when it launched but this time I mainlined the story stuff and managed to see the credit.

Visually it's fine on xb1x as it's been patched for 4k resolution, it's just the mission variety that really shows it's age. Each mission is basically a variant on ride out somewhere, get attacked, return home :D

Great writing and story though but the middle is a bit of a slog, it was then and it still is now :)
 
Metal Gear Solid series.
Bioshock series.
The last of us.
Fallout 3
Uncharted series.

Metal gear solid 1 is probably my all time favourite game. Such great story telling and great gameplay.
