Most of my top 10 games of all time can be considered "retro" as i haven't really latched on to too many newer games as my all time favorites. Thought making the list of 10 would be harder but i had a difficult time narrowing down the last 2 spots. I also could not arrange anything past number 1, so my list, in no order goes:

1. Everquest

Ocarina of time
Links awakening
Pokemon Red
Fallout 4
Day of the tentacle
Indiana jones and the fate of atlantis
Earthbound
Battlefield: 2142

honorable mentions to WoW, GTA Series, Gran Turismo series, and a bunch of the other lucas arts point and click, Full Throttle, Sam and Max hit the road, etc

Here you go. I made this for an earlier thread. The only other game I wanted to include is Super Columns, but this was strictly a 3x3 chart so I didn't have room.

I don't know if I could rank the games in any particular order, because I honestly distribute a pretty even amount of attention to everything in the chart. I guess my favorite game overall though is Zelda II.

BF2142 was over most peoples heads it seems, but Titan mode was one of the better multiplayer experiances ive had in FPS online games.. me and my friends played the shit out of 2142.

I'd add half-life to my honorable mentions as well, probably played it and CS etc. a ton compared to some of the stuff on my list

Civilisation1/civilisation4
Baldur's gate 2 Shadows of Amn (the expansion was lame though)
Final Fantasy 7
Zelda 3 a link to the past
Fallout 3/Fallout New Vegas
Super mario bros 3
Quake

Not sure about numbers 9 and 10...
>>
>>3059473
Fallout 4 basically had everything i look for in a game personally, and it was my favorite by far of the modern day fallouts.. never understood the hate over the game.

Playing on a R9 390 it was also one of the better looking games and the art direction etc. was spot on for what they were trying to achieve imo.

We're in a state where nothing will ever be good enough for anyone, people could come out with the gold standard for gaming and people would call it shit.

release OOT in modern society the way it is today and everyone would call it shit.
>>
>>3059473
>The Witcher 3

Had me up until this point. The whole series is terribly overrated and has lackluster role-playing choices. You might as well put Uncharted somewhere on that list, dudebro.

My top 10 is basically just Fire Pro games, Street Fighter games, Contra games, and Smash T.V. plus a ton of honorable mentions. I'd have to group shit by series to make an even remotely interesting top 10 list.

Honorable mentions to Mega Man 3 (I would totally put it on there, but I never beat it due to my cart always glitching out near the end), LSD Dream Emulator, and the Tony Hawk series from THPS 2 to THUG 2. I don't play many games post-6th gen, but that's another opinion for another thread.

Metroid

I'm sure Metroid can probably be topped by some game I need to finish or play again (like Legend of the Mystical Ninja if I could figure out how to pull off special scroll attacks), but the fact is that game is the hardest video game ever for me, and I can beat Zelda 1/II with my eyes closed. It baffles me that it could have ever developed a speedrunning community.

Like did Nintendo make the game for all of 100 people back on the earth who would achieve legendary gaming statuses within their local community in the late 80's? Hot dang, that's the most hardcore thing I've ever heard in my life if so.
>>
Jagged Alliance 2
X-COM
Devil May Cry
Valkyrie Profile
Super Metroid
Dwarf Fortress
Star Ocean 2
Resident Evil 4
Max Payne 2
Romancing SaGa: Minstrel Song

My tastes are pretty mercurial and I'm sure I'm forgetting some great games, but I do hold all of those in very high esteem at least.

>>3059418
Good stuff. I'm not a fan of FF2, but I enjoyed most of the rest of those quite a bit. I am surprised to see FFL/SaGa 1 rather than SaGa 2, though.

>>3060984
Gunstar Heroes is absurdly fun. I've co-op'ed through it with several people, as it's a game just about anyone will enjoy.

I also like Rondo quite a bit, though I actually prefer the PSP remake to the original.
>>
>>3060040
>Smash tv has not aged well

Least accurate statement ever posted on /vr/.
>>
>>3061137
I'm honestly unsure how someone could find Metroid to be so difficult. I was generally pretty bad at videogames as a kid, but I still got through Metroid without much trouble. Figuring out where to go can be a bit tricky, but outside of the final stretch the enemies and environments don't really pose much of a threat.
>>
>>3061186
My friend, his brother, and I were playing a old midway compliation and we just couldn't enjoy it, felt like it got really repetitive really quickly. We felt the same about Rampage, has a lot of fun with Rampart and taking turns with Robotron 2084.
>>
>>3061195
I guess the fact that you could get "Lost" in the game was relatively new. For me at least.

>>3061302
I've never seen the MS version. I watched a vid and it seems very similar. A tough platformer with tight controls. Also, the music sounds much better on the NES ones IMO.

Btw, there's 3 of them. Ninja Gaiden, Ninja Gaiden 2: The Dark Sword of Chaos, and Ninja Gaiden 3: The Ancient Ship of Doom.
>>
>>3061302
There are in fact three Ninja Gaiden games on the NES.

It's a good trilogy; I definitely recommend at least trying out the first two. They play somewhat similarly to the Master System entry.
>>
>>3061185
Romancing SaGa Minstrel Song is awesome. Easily my favorite JRPG.
>>
>>3061302
I would HIGHLY recommend playing the NES Ninja Gaiden games. The controls are incredibly tight and, even though the difficulty can be brutal, it's still incredibly fun. Easily one of the best series on the console.

>>3061292
Lol, that gif was taken at a skatepark near my house. Never thought I'd see Chenga on /vr/.
>>
>>3059407
OK here is an improvised personal top ten of games I know of... I recognize that my knowledge of good games is lacking as I have yet to play or at least look into a lot of those other people tend to mention. I've never been exposed to anything Everquest before except the fact that it's an MMORPG. I have only ever played a little bit of the first Zelda game, of the entire series. In fact, I guess I'll be playing those next.
The way I judge games is by "overall aesthetic", meaning, something about the experience is just nice, even if it has flaws otherwise. Id rather visit a beautiful ruin than a well built but sterile feeling castle.
I'm also sure I'm forgetting some or might reconsider some if I spend time thinking about it.

10. Starcraft
9. Elite II: Frontier
8. Secret of Monkey Island
7. Commander Keen Ep. 4
6. SMB3
5. Colonization (DOS, obviously)
4. King of Dragon Pass
3. Chrono Trigger
2. Doom
1. Ultima Underworld (Im lumping the both of them together for convenience, because fuck the police)

Games I didn't manage to cram in there and might deserve to be there instead:
Quake
Prince of Persia 1 or 2
Harvest Moon
Indiana Jones adventure games
Ultima 4
X-Com (DOS, obviously)

I've started playing it last night. The sound and colours aren't as good as the Master System, as expected, but it controls just as well and has the same feel as the MS version. So it is pretty good so far for an NES game.

I can never narrow it down to a top 10. For every game I include, I feel like there's 5 others that should also stand alongside it. Like, if I include Link's Awakening, the Oracle games should totally be there, and at that rate, Minish Cap, and then half of my top 10 list is suddenly filled with nothing but Zelda games. If I put Mario 3, then Mario World should be in, and so should Yoshi's Island, and definitely Mario 64... It's a slippery slope. Okay, let me try and only include one game from any given franchise to narrow it down:

Link's Awakening
Super Mario 3
Skies of Arcadia
Super Metroid
Chrono Trigger
Super Smash Bros. Melee
Sonic 2
Dragon Quest IX
Pokemon G/S/C
Henry Hatsworth in The Puzzling Adventure

Mother FUCKER, yes. I love this game so much. It had no right being so good, one of the few platformers that I revere for both it's gameplay AND story.

>release OOT in modern society the way it is today and everyone would call it shit.
You mean because of the Nintendo tag that comes with the game? Because if it was from an 'indie' developer/studio/sweat shop- I'm pretty sure people would still love it!
No?

If I was to review it as a modern indie game I'd give it an 8. Outstanding music, art direction, characters, environments etc. But gameplay has little depth compared to something like Dark Souls, and the graphics are way too lazy with the textures, even if we're giving the low res a free pass.

6. Tales of Symphonia
7. Dark Cloud 2
8. Metal Gear Solid 4

I never put very similar games on these lists, so I like to think that Hexen covers Doom, DK64 covers Mario 64, Chrono Cross covers Trigger, etc.

Sorry that only half of it is retro

>Is everyone only allowed to like hipster shit?

Yeah, that's how it works mate!
Strange you say that though, cos your list(bar Henry Hatsworth) seems sort of a generic 'Hey! It's cool to like these games!' list.

Also- Henry Hatsworth in The Puzzling Adventure is fucking SHITE! Pure shite.
>>
>>3069205
Okay, son, so I know that you're young, and you only know about most of those games because you read about them in Smash Bros. trophy descriptions, but the reason they're popular and well-remembered is because they're actually good. Weird, huh? I really don't care what the popular opinion is, those are the games I liked the most while growing up. Do I like other games that aren't part of the "meme" list? Sure, but to say they make my absolute top 10 would be bullshitting for the sake of trying to be different. I'd rather be honest.
>Henry Hatsworth in The Puzzling Adventure is fucking SHITE!
Not sure if you're trying to bait, or even fucking know what the game is, but this pretty much proves that you've got shit taste right here.
>>
>>3059578

It just occurred to me that I forgot to include Doom and Doom 2 on my list.
>>
>>3069217
I don't know what the "meme" list is. I'm 34 and I came here because I just heared there was now a retro video game board seperate from /v/, which I can't stand.
Anyway- Yeah, you seem like a prick.
I played all the way through Henry Hatsworth, I thought it looked great- turned out to be shite.
Did I mention that you seem like a prick?

Hehe.

>ITT: trendy little redditors name 10 random AAA games each, and pretend they're "le epic retro on the 4chins".

I can do that too, see?

>Fallout

>Resident Evil 2
>Super Metroid
>Metroid Prime
>Final Fanatsy VII
>OoT
>AlttP
>Link's Awakening

Anyone and everyone loves these games. Get over it, stop trying to fit in and more importantly, go fucking kill yourselves.

Call me back when one of you fucktards actually manages to enjoy something that didn't sell a million copies, or get downloaded a million times.
>>
>>3069362
So what if it sold a zillion units or whatever. If you like it, you fucking like it!
That's what I was trying to tell this prick too-

6. Final Fantasy VII
7. Pokémon Snap

10. Battletoads
>>
>>3069504

Pretty cool. Have you beaten Battletoads? And why do you like VIII more than VII and VI? I've beaten VI and VII and I'm preparing to play VIII (I played the beginning a few years ago but I'm going to actually finish it this time)
>>
>>3069512
I like time travel like butterfly effect e.g. Warrior Within that's why I like viii. it's just a preference of mine. silent Hill 4 is not really special but I personally like the atmosphere of being locked inside a room which is creeping me really out. And FFViii has the most epic game intro I have ever seen. I'm more of a story guy, my focus is less on game play except battletoads that was the most epic game play I ever played. I only had to skip the lollipop stage because I couldn't manage it with my HDTV lag (this sounds like an excuse)

Retro only - in no particular order:

Super Metroid
Super Mario Bros 3
Roller Coaster Tycoon 2
Pokemon RBY
Pokemon Crystal
Crash Bandicoot 2
Gran Turismo
Spyro 2
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
RC Pro AM

If I'm allowed to put non-retros on the list, then I would put in SSBM and Metroid Prime in and take out the last 2 in the first list. I'd also probably make room for Tales of Symphonia.
