Anyone else think Syphon Filter was a great game for it's time?

>>24652063
Can't decide. Spent hundreds of hours playing Borderlands 2, it is quite addicting.

Not as immersive as Gothic II or The Witcher, though.

As for FPS anything quakelike, I enjoyed the classic Serious Sam series (fast paced action, nearly no hitscan-enemies, so avoiding enemy fire is a matter of skill and not luck).

system shock 2 is one of the bests games of all time. i really don't like bioshock for some reason, probably because SS2 has aged so well and i'd rather just play that.

never played jet set radio future, but i loved jet set radio on the dreamcast. wouldn't put it near my all-time favorite list, though. tbqhfam i wouldn't even put it in my top 5 dreamcast games, but that and the SNES have the best library IMO

>>24652705
>>24652823
i really enjoyed playing the entire syphon filter series on the PS1. only one i played after that was one on the PSP with online, wasn't bad but didn't capture the magic that the original series had. i liked the original series more than MGS, personally
i'd also put smw2: yoshi's island in my top vidya of all time, and i still think that's the best platformer of all time. super castlevania iv would be up there as well, since i think it far surpasses SotN. the metroid style castlevania games are shit and i'd rather just play super metroid.

for nostalgic purposes i think i'd also put the adventures of batman and robin on the SNES somewhere on the list, but not near the top.

for some underrated multiplayer GOATs look no further than bomberman on the N64

yes

x wing vs tie fighter is the first multiplayer game I played, also enjoyed rogue squadron on the n64

1999 was my first taste of how normies and mainstream society fuck everything up, niche video games like these had creativity and passion poured into them and I thought the movies would be the same, the ads made darth maul look really cool, then I went to see the phantom menace to watch my childhood being raped as my childhood was happening

I can understand ewoks and r2d2, it is a movie for children, but jar jar binks was like some kid with ADHD who really needs to be taught how not to be an annoying little shit before he starts getting bullied, what the fuck happened to george lucas, it is like he went senile

Single player - JA2 & Fallout2 probably, though DeusEx is a great game too (try the Nameless Mod for it if you haven't, it's excellent)

Childhood nostalgia personal best - The Fantastic Adventures of Dizzy (managed to complete it without any guides, etc. after literally YEARS of trying) on my NES. An absolute beast of a game.

Also did you hear about GMDX? That shit really needs some publicity, since it didn't (and apparently won't) get on Steam like Revision did. It's probably the most autistic (i.e. best) DX "update" mod that changes and adds so many things, from what I've seen it's going to be the equivalent of 1.13 for DX.

The funny thing is that the devs never wanted to put them in there, but their userbase of dumb kids begged them to do it in several surveys. You don't actually need the IAP's to progress in the game. It's perfectly doable in a reasonable time period, especially if you know how to use gems and item bonuses properly.

>to progress in the game

true, to a point

but fuck me if I want to spend dozens of hours staring at the screen of a 3rd gen ipod grinding for money to get a high end sword

also only really played the first game, I've played a few hours of the second one but I burnt myself out on them and stopped playing a year or two ago.

-fallout 3

i think the award for all time best has to be the peroid of time where i was like 16 and obsessed with starcraft. u guys dont know what its like to love a game unless u loved a competative game when you were 14-18

It is, but the problem is that there's still no JTL, and there are no additions that came after NGE (and even though NGE was absolute shit combat-wise, it got incredible content additions later on when the game was already dying, it even had atmospheric spaceship flight!).

There's a few servers running on leaked NGE code that have some of that, but it's not code from the final version of the game, something like a year before the end when some of these additions weren't in yet.

So unfortunately both versions are very incomplete, and the community is splintered as fuck. Although the main SWGEmu server is actually decently populated. I don't have the drive to actually play but I sometimes log in just to walk through the cities and sit in the cantina a bit.

>System Shock 2 aged well
I disagree, played it 2 years ago and it felt archaic as fuck. I can see how it influenced other games, but you can fuck yourself over so easily. Maybe I just didn't play it enough.

>Deus Ex and Doom
I need to get Deus Ex again. I never finished it but it was fun up until I left off. Doom is dope, I love that shit. Aged like fine wine.

I only got halfway through half-life 1 and stopped. I might pick it up again though, it was pretty fun.

I love half-life 2, and SSBM is my all time favorite game. I could play it all day. SSBM is goat.

what felt archaic about SS2? i played through it recently (it was modded this time around though) and i thought it still held up. maybe the mods influenced my opinion, but it still feels like a better game than all the bioshocks, IMO

Pic related, one of those games I wish I could forget just to experience it for the first time again. That incredibly comfy-yet-still-on-edge atmosphere, music to set the mood for each location, dialogue that changed depending on selections and actually had some meaning behind it. Man I just wanted to live in this game for a while, I've yet to play another RPG that thrust me into its world so well.

VTMB is GOAT, and it's hilarious that the facial animations are leaps and bounds above Fallout 4's.

Unfortunately it was rushed out, and the whole 3rd act end and beyond is tedious as fuck.

But yeah, I agree. Played through every clan. Played through tons of shitty mods. Read the stupid novels, ran a V20 game...

But nothing can recapture those first two playthroughs (as a regular clan and then a malk). Nothing can recapture that first time in the Ocean House, reading about the dryer and then finding it as it slowly opens...

Just wipe my mind and let me replay again, senpai...

i'd say counter strike.. but warcraft 3, quake, runescape and wow would be top 5.

counter strike just because of the mods/user content. in cs you have different game modes like surf, jailbreak, glassfloor,slide, deathrun, hide n seek, minigames, warcraftsource/rpg etc. then you have all that with different user made maps like skill surf maps, scoutzknifes, awp_ maps, gungame maps, fy_ maps..

surf is basically like a whole different game, it can be played like competitively with scrimming and is fast paced/has decent skill needed for it and is fun.

modding/custom content makes games so much better.. the game developers who are turning custom content from user content into pay2play are making games crap, and they have to release more and more of the same game with different maps, maybe some new guns/models, just to have people buy it.

basically all final fantasys, all fallouts, all oblivions, grand theft auto, call of dutys if you want a single player fps, fighting games like brawl/street fighter/tekken, minecraft, warcraft, command and conquer, mount and blade
theres heaps of playstation games games, just run a crack/chip on your console and download them to play too

all those games would take a good while to finish, plus a lot of them have mods or maps you can add extra. like mount and blade has a lot of modding, warcraft has some single player custom maps, fallout has extra mods.

you could download any game and speedrun it as well if you got bored of it. like doom or quake
