This.

I never got it - is it because Jade is just documenting the truth, and the truth is neither good nor evil?

Maybe I'm just a godamn retard.
>>
Legend of Zelda
Metroid
Final Fantasy (obv)
Devil May Cry
Sunset Overdrive (Wat not a racing game?)

You don't even visit Silent Hill

>He's a plumber and I don't see him wearing a tie
>WHAT THE FUCK YOU CAN'T TRUST THE DAMN TITLE
>>
>Remember me
>Wasn't rememberable
>>
>>333504265
The first one was supposed to be the last game from Square. They were going under until it came out.

That's where the name comes from. One last kick at the can.
>>
>>333504652
>Legend of Zelda
There's a legendary princess
>Metroid
You don't play as the metroids but they exists at least
>Devil May Cry
There're a lot of devils on those games and the objects they drop are called tears
>>
>>333504841
But you do remember it m8 :^)

Team Fortress 2

There is clearly no teamwork and I see no fortresses.

>Half-life 2
atoms decaying plays no role in the game

Funky Barn
>the barn isn't actually funky
>>
>>333503551

I remember some literal reatrd on summer camp, like below 90 IQ saying shit like 'durr, Final Fatansy be the same all the same all games!! durr, when is gonna end, durr!!!' and me and my two lads, who by the way are super handsome and smart mocked him for this shit

good times, I hope he is dead
>>
>>333505130
The barns in 2fort are fortresses for the mentally handicapped mercs.
>>
>>333505058
It's a double entendre, the game is about freedom fighting and a cause that is just but also you just blow shit up for kicks.
>>
>>333505130

>>333505875
LMAO

Unreal Tournament.

It's pretty credible, you know. I mean I'm seeing it happen. If you told me "lol these people are fighting in a tournament instead of fighting a war" i'd be like "No way! That's unreal!"
But now that i think about it WHAT THE FUCK THIS IS THE EXACT SAME PLOT FROM THE HUNGER GAMES WHAT THE FUCK

Lambda complex in black mesa, a location pillar to the series. Lambda symbol is the logo of the game and also is a symbol of atom decay, it also represents the decay of earth after the clusterfuck of portals

I heard that it was originally supposed to be called BETWEEN Good and Evil, and then some exec remembered having read the epic title of a Nietzsche book somewhere.
Not that Between Good and Evil is a particularly great title either.
