ITT: Critically acclaimed games you've never played

ITT: Critically acclaimed games you've never played

You're not really missing out on a lot. Half-Life 1 was better in a few regards, but both games are dated and are only critically acclaimed because they practically defined modern FPS adventure games.

Well, more so, the entire series. I briefly played MGS4 on a friend's PS3 once.

What port do I play?

• Metal Gear Solid
• Final Fantasy
• Kingdom Hearts
• Bioshock
• Halo past 2

what else am I missing...
if you give me the name of a famous game I'll probably say I haven't played it yet

...

I agree. However, the interesting and eerie tone of the games make up for the dated graphics, in my opinion.

The most recent ones are pretty good last I heard. Honestly you can't go wrong with any of them unless you play it on iphone.

gamecube is pretty comfy but the new HD 60fps edition on steam is a good port.

Hello fellow Jellyfish!

If you have a decent PC, definitely get the PC version.

Only Zelda game I've played is Phantom Hourglass, it wasn't great in my opinion.

ICO
Shadow of the Colossus
Ocarina of Time
Majora's Mask
Beyond Good and Evil
Okami
Dark Cloud 2

I don't even have a good excuse since I own all of them.

Blame the backlog, I guess.

*waves tentacles*
hi there!

You didn't miss much

This

I've never played a Metal Gear Solid game
I've never played a Resident Evil game
I've never played a Silent Hill game

...

I have not played any of the Metal Gear Solid games.

I think this is the greatest game I've ever played.

I'm trying to play this but it feels very clunky. It's not very interesting within the first hour either. Is it worth sticking it out?

Dark Souls (havent finished)
Shadow of the Colossus
Human Revolution (haven't finished)
New Vegas
Chrono Trigger
Super Metroid
KotOR

Come to mind off the top of my head

The original Deus Ex. Been gaming almost 30 years across pretty much all platforms, but somehow missed this one. Plan to rectify that soon.

Agreed. It's a bona-fide masterpiece.

Most Legend of Zelda games
Most Metroid games
Most Metal Gear games
Deus Ex
Most Pokemon games
Uncharted
Can't force myself to beat LISA
System Shock

There's a lot more, I just can't think of them at the moment.

Except that the second has really unique enemies and a really fucked up story, but in a good way.

I remember the PC version having a really stupid control scheme.

I've played through IX & X but never bothered with the others

The game doesn't really pick up until you get to Hong Kong. Before that I think it's goddamn terrible.

It's great that this thread lets your correlate the release dates of all these unplayed games and paints a picture of how underage Cred Forums really is.

Thism i never played OOT

Any DOOM game. Any Castlevania game. Any Megaman game.

Halo, it just does not interest me in the slightest.
