>the entire vidya market wouldn't be shit if this one game was never made
What's it's name?
Bomberman 64
halo 3
Halo is GOAT but I bet those weab retards think it was the start
Modern Warfare 1.
Probably RE4.
RE4 a great game inspired Gears of War which is also a great game which spawned many games that are considerably shit.

It's a good game that inspired a slew of horrible "cinematic" shooters and multiplayer focus. A game doesn't have to be bad in order to influence the industry negatively.

Mark my words this is the beginning of dark times.
I've said it once, and I'll say it again: Minecraft.
Notch proved that you don't have to finish a game to become a billionaire.
Notch proved that you don't have to keep your promises to your old fans once the gravy train starts rolling.
Notch proved that you don't need to put effort into graphics, or design, or coding, or anything, just as long as your game is popular with today's crowd.
Notch proved that little kids will buy anything labeled 'popular'.
Notch proved that when people try to fix your game (modders), you can take their ideas and not give them credit (tall grass, beds, horses, etc.)
There's also the horrible community that sprung around Minecraft and the fact that most LPers got big off viral Minecraft videos. You can argue that the decline of vidya started before Minecraft, but MC was the catalyst.
This is the closest thing I have to a reaction image on this computer.
>>319952398
Seconded, RE4 not releasing would kill RE and dying would've let zombies fall out of fashion easier

I still don't get it, mang. Half Life 2 is more cinematic and acclaimed than Halo ffs (I fucking love HL2 too)

It is technically a complete game, just not a very interesting one.
Halo, obviously. FPS are fucking cancer to gaming and only casualfag normies enjoy that trash
>>319951808
Portal?
>All this Halo
There were console shooters before Halo.
>>319953692
I'll bite. Why?
>>319953242
There's thousands of amazing games that came out before minecraft ever existed, not that minecraft isn't influential but the entire medium would not be ruined if it didn't exist
>>319953242
>Notch proved that when people try to fix your game (modders), you can take their ideas and not give them credit (tall grass, beds, horses, etc.)
Didn't Bethesda at least hire the people who made the mods that inspired features in Fo4?
Sonic for starting the whole console wars bullshit
>>319951808
Battlefield 1942
And you know this is true.
Bioshock because it was the first game to start off the craze of video games turning into movies.
>no wii sports
Wii sports was the high profile game that sold th wii by the millions. If it wasn't for that, it would have at least delayed the hunger for the casual audience, and possibly nipped the gimmicky motion control shit in the bud
>>319953707
He made at least 20 million before it was officially released (Nov 11, 2011). The billions came from the Microsoft deal, but 20M is still a shitton.
Also, it's not fucking finished just because the fat fuck slapped a v1.0 on it. When 1.0 came out, villagers didn't do a single thing. The game is still far from complete since Mojang keeps adding shit while everything else is half-baked and not fleshed out.
I'm still mad. I bought the game in alpha for $15, and I'm still fucking mad.
>>319953908
You misinterpreted the OP. He's asking which video game actively ruined the industry.
>>319951808
League of legends.
>>319953242
I know he gave credit to that guy that made horses last time I checked..
>>319953780
The market would be still just as shit.
The community would be, kind of better. But some other game would've eventually introduced something as meme worthy as "The Cake is a lie." getting regular people to gaming to casualize it.
>>319954156
>You misinterpreted the OP. He's asking which video game actively ruined the industry.
Woops, you're right, my bad
>>319953472
It's basically one of the top 10s of the ps2/gamecube era of games. Right on par with GTA:SA and need for speed underground 2 in relation to mainstream appeal.
>>319953962
But anon, if it wasn't for Sonic and Sega (and yes, I can't believe I'm saying this) today would be a worse future for videogames because Nintendo would have became a monopoly and the industry would be dead after a second videogame crash because of this.
Competition is the best thing that can happen to an industry.

I dunno but I'm 100% sure they ended up hiring that dude that did oscuro's oblivion overhaul. Either them or Obsidian since they're bethesda's little bitch, like platinum is to activision nowadays.
>>319952780
the only correct answer
>>319951808
OBLIVION
Horse Armor ruined gaming with DLC
Obsession with boring open world games wouldn't have happened
>>319953863
We know. They are shit in comparison. God damn you fucking queers do you assume Halo was our first FPS?
>>319954563
IIRC it was Bungie, oddly enough

i wonder which thread....
>>319954098___________________you're wrong___________________
>>319955551
Doesn't matter if some other game did it first. Bioshock was the first one to start the CRAZE. It was the first mainstream and critically acclaimed game to incorporate story to such a degree. It was the main instigator.
>>319955726
>What is Ninja Gaiden?
>What is MGS?
>>319955809
Again, neither of which started the craze. Nobody batted an eye for movie vidya when those games were released. It was all because of Bioshock.
Cave Story
Cave Story itself was amazing, but it spawned a deluge of shit indie titles with no effort, when Cave Story was the literal definition of effort.
>>319952780
The one true answer.
Can't ruin what never existed.
>>319951808
COD 4
Angry Birds
Metal Gear Solid
>>319956298
Mass Effect
>>319953780
Nah, portal had a shit fanbase but there weren't any games that tried to be portal. I'd say MW, ASSFAGOTS, Minecraft and DayZ.
>>319951808
GTA3. It started the open world mania and every dudebro playing it cause "you can kill hookers bro lol"
>>319951808
Bejeweled.
It is patent zero of the casual/mobile gaming market.
>>319951808
Battlefield 2
>>319951808
Tetris
>>319951808
Phil Fish's "Fez" ruined Indie Gaming. Now any game made by 1 guy is almost guaranteed to be a "wow 2 India 4 me" shitty puzzle platformer.
>>319955918
wtf did Bioshock ever do to you? Bioshock isn't even anything like a movie. Most of it's story is in audio logs. Outside of Andrew Ryan's office Bioshock's story is experienced, not viewed. What are you even talking about? BIOSHOCK IS LITERALLY NOTHING LIKE A CINEMATIC GAMING EXPERIENCE. BIOSHOCK STARTED KNOW CRAZE YOU DELUSIONAL FUCK. UNCHARTED, YES. BIOSHOCK, NO.
Morrowind, since it made open world FPSRPG popular, as if FPSRPGs weren't bad enough already.

Minecraft proved you could become a literal fucking MILLIONAIRE by playing and streaming a kid's game.

Pinball Construction Set.
It wasn't even a bad game. But it just so happened to beElectronic Arts'first major critical success which kicked them off as games publishers.
>>319952153
Anon you just made my day.
And made me feel old
Anything by EA and Activision
>>319952153
how long has it been man? 10 years already?
I dont know, whats the first game that made success with micro-transactions and DLC?
TF2?
>>319952153
Duckroll? Is it really you? Its been too long old friend.
>>319951808
Smash
>>319951808
Either World of Warcraft or Minecraft.
Super Mario Bros
not really a game, but a mod.
DOTA.
If it weren't for DOTA, then RTSes wouldn't've died so quickly, "esports" would still be a laughing stock of the video gaming world, Arena FPSes wouldn't have been dethroned as the "go-to" LAN party game, and Streaming wouldn't be nearly as popular as it currently is.
Of course there are a ton of things that DOTA/MOBAs in general didn't start, but only made worse, like FP2 games flooding the market and the abundance of microtransactions and trading that fuels a special kind of autism in those communities. Plus the whole toxic nature of the gaming community has somehow amplified tenfold thanks to MOBAs alone.
what ever game kickstarted the mobile trend
>>319963137
Still a low price to pay for such great games such a League and Dota
>>319951808
Halo or CoD, Gears of War ruined third person shooters as well.

Fuck you, man. Galaxy 5000 was one if my favorite NES games, and without Activision it wouldn't exist.
>you either love either one of the GTA games or at least one of the many games that followed the GTA formula
Don't even try to deny it, GTA 3 had the most impact on video games in the 21st century.
As cliche an answer as this is, Halo. Not because of casualizing the FPS or what have you, but because it's pretty much why the Xbox succeeded, and more and more it seems the Xbox led to where we are now.
>>319964334
So Perfect Dark? That game was hot garbage but people praised the ever loving fuck out of it for reasons I will just never understand. The thing ran at like 10 fps at best, even with the expansion pack, it controlled like shit, and most of the mission objectives were god awful and could be failed without ever knowing what you did wrong. Sure, the multiplayer was kind of fun, but the god damn laptop gun and farsight broke it to pieces.
Pong.
>>319951808
RE4
>>319964596
Nice b8, Perfect Dark was great, it's sequel... let's forget about that.
Also that trend started sometime in 6th gen, even then middle-market games could still make decent profits till last gen.
Doom.
Weapons have no difference and it created way too elitistic fanbase.
>>319954098
>hi I'm a big dumb piece of shit
For the 8 years?
Call of Duty 4
>>319964980
Wolfenstein 3d made an interesting enough concept that would have eventually been revisited without Doom.
Doom did help move along multiplayer and mods, which was nice.
I agree, the fanbase is kinda shit. It's like some of them just became bitter assholes after Quake came out.
>>319964925
No bait. Perfect Dark was fucking terrible, stop lying to yourself. Honestly, when is the last time you played it on an actual N64? It's a mess. I couldn't understand the praise it got st the time, and later on when I began to explore various video game websites, I was really surprised by just how many people talked about it like it was the greatest game ever made.
>>319965738
>No bait. Perfect Dark was fucking terrible, stop lying to yourself. Honestly, when is the last time you played it on an actual N64?
Yesterday actually, I was playing Shadowgate 64.
>>319953242
Fucking this. So much shit came from Minecraft. Early access, relying on a random generator for progression instead of design, pointless crafting mechanics in other games, using Youtubers for marketing, no ingame tutorials.
>>319965845
I misread what you said as *when was the last time you played an N64*
It has been a while since I played that specifically but I played Goldeneye a few months ago and it was still fun, antiquated, but still fun. Also people didn't give nearly as much of a shit about framerate back then.
