What Game Do You Think Everyone Must Play?

[Dark Prophet]

HL2

 

[archvile93]

The Secret of Monkey Island. I will most likely refuse to speak to you if you haven't played the best game of all time.

I'll agree with you as soon as I no longer believe the following quote (by myself): "An adventure game is just a movie poorly disquised as a game with inferior special effects."

 

[Chaos Theory]

Starcraft ghost....when it comes out...one day....

I have faith!

At some point in every gamer's life, they must play GTA3 and learn how to commit (shoplifting/robbery/rape?) by killing a prostitute with a baseball bat after a quickie.

That's not very nice

Life thrives on death. Deal with it.

The entire half-life series. nuff said.

Everyone must buy and play Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 from start to finish in all three modes, especially multiplayer. It's cliched, I know, but its a great game.

This is what is destroying gaming.

Actually, great games like this are what make it an industry. To say you should only play the classics is to say war should be fought with sticks and stones because they were the first weapons. Industry evolves, in every medium. Just learn to accept the new and improved games of today. Not Zelda, cuz Link's gay.

what. the. fuck.
if you knew the series like I do from 01 on the PC, having cleared all the single-player components of the whole series and spent many hours in MP aswell, then you'd know that MW2 is a PoS, a symbol of all that is WRONG with the industry. popular =/= good.
besides, i've seen plenty of vids of MP on the tube (so?) and many of them know and state that the MP is still broken, and i can see it conceptually, as it appears to be better subtitled "laptop warfare" or "dual antique shotguns"

back to the topic, and positive words:
I'd recommend a lot of people play TIE fighter, myself, a great game of a genre that was once vibrant, but nowadays is really not well-played/no AAA titles in it in the foreseeable future..
also, BF2, also known as the real man's CoD4, which is the man-child's MW2, which as is the Antichrist of gaming.

Know what I think? You're retarded or scared or gay or something, because you cannot judge a game from youtube footage. PLAY THE FUCKING GAME then judge it, and even if you don't like it, and the game is "horrible", how come it's sold more than any other game in recent years? How come almost everyone likes it? Dumb-asses like you should be put in their own country where they won't bother the rest of us.

...but from commentary, aswell as firsthand experience in the previous instalments of the series, aswell as having a friend whom owns it.
and wow, you sound far more scared than i do, instantly dropping to the level of calling me mentally handicapped or homosexual, i love how everything you said here is much better applied to yourelf.
yeah, it sold a lot, mostly because of massive hype machine, not actual quality, and no, just because the popular game sites 'liked' it, does not mean its a great game everyone should play.
i seriously hope these are not your actual beliefs, and that this instead a dupe account to encourage some fire. its possible looking at the nature of your posts..

its just that's the one game that's a really sore spot for me and many other older gamers...

To clarify, I judge that game solely on personal experience. The hype machine told me it existed. I decided it was awesome. So did most other people. It's not the antichrist. If you don't like it, sucks to be you cuz your missing out

Spoiler

What better title than someone who truly wants to identify themselves as a gamer? Throwing away typical conventions like free movement and plots that are upchucked at the get-go is something that Killer 7 takes pride in doing.

An excellent game for those who wish to expand their minds, and truly, this is a title that crosses the line of "games" and "art."

 

[ShadowDude112]

I have a lot. Conker's Bad Fur Day, The Banjo-Kazooie console games, MegaMan 2, and Ocarina of Time. I think that's it.

Can you get any of them on XBox 360 outside of Orange Box?

You must play Starcraft or Counterstrike to be a hardcore gamer. Any Nintendo game is acceptable to be just a gamer.

By now halo Combat Evolved is a must play. Counterstrike was too glitchy for me, laggy. I did get a less than perfect version, but it still was too hard to play cuz of the lag.

 

[Darth Rahu]

Ocarina of Time, Knights of the Old Republic, Arkham Asylum, InFamous, Silent Hill (any of them except Homecoming), and Portal!

BTW I couldn't finish KOTOR on PC cuz I can't kill Bastilla. SHE'S SO STRONG!

Psychonauts got me back into gaming, and it made me sure that Yahtzee could be good towards a game, and he was completely just spewing out random hatred.

And I did fall in love with the game before Yatzee started making ZP.

 

[_zuul]

I want you to play [insert game title here] because i have no life and masturbate to it furiously every night. also i am a giant tool*.


*unless the game is Braid. then i would be an obnoxious hipster who will one day alienate everyone i still know.



-coolface-

What. The. Fuck. If you are an anti-gamer, don't come to the Escapist. If that is just your version of funny... well it kinda is. Never mind.

thanks.

i just hate these threads.
