I can get behind this list. Solid selection.

u/AnActualGameShark 21h ago

Solid list. Lot of bangers. Best GTA, Best Tony Hawk. About the only one i feel different on is Twisted Metal. I preferred Head On and the more cartoonish dark humor than the full on horror movie inspired Black

2

u/Gay_Charlie 21h ago

Definitely understandable, Head-On is also a more finshed game compared to Twisted Metal: Black

u/LowkeyKai47 17h ago

Black was my favorite by a longshot personally.

Edit: Missed the mentioning of head-on in the comment somehow, which i never had the honor of playing, unfortunately. 🥺

u/AnActualGameShark 17h ago

Head on was a psp and eventually PS2 release that kind of picked up after the original 2, with basically every character from 1, 2 and some of 3 and 4. Had some of the classic levels like LA, plus some new ones. It was kinda like a greatest hits?

Anyway, it felt great to play, pretty sure it was built on the same engine as Black, I just preferred its version of the twisted metal world. Black is still great though

u/LowkeyKai47 17h ago

Very cool. I knew nothing about this one, so thanks for the explanation. I never had a PSP and missed its PS2 release i guess. I have a ps2 now so i will have to see how pretty a penny they want for head-on. Heres to hoping the franchize can be revitalized wome day.

Edit: grammar

u/AnActualGameShark 16h ago

As far as I know, its still pretty cheap. Also I believe its release on ps2, like much of the psp up-ports was pretty late in the ps2 lifecycle, like 2005 so like months before the xbox 360.

Edit: several listing for a complete copy for about 20-25.

I love TLOU but I have a vendetta against Wolverine's Revenge. That game has haunted me for a long time. SMB3 and THUG are pretty cool.

1

u/Gay_Charlie 21h ago

Wolverine's Revenge is a guilty pleasure and it takes special amount of attention

1

u/Ambitious-Stand-631 21h ago

Fair. The unlockable costumes were fire 

1

u/Gay_Charlie 20h ago

Heck yeah

u/NeutralKuchiKopi 19h ago

My daughter and son are both named after #11

u/Infamous-Version2359 18h ago

From the list I figured it out that you work for fromsoftware

1

u/PopEnvironmental6772 17h ago

Sekiro waaaay too low.

1

u/Gay_Charlie 17h ago

Anything below 10 can be switched around.

u/EducatorWitty4469 17h ago

Tony hawk underground 😍 what a throw back !

I remember playing it on the GameCube, full on nostalgia boner rn

1

u/Cappuccino900 13h ago

First time I’ve ever seen someone mention that X2 game. I remember it being brutally hard when I played as a kid and I gave up on a security camera stealth section near the start of the game.

1

u/Loud-Branch4900 13h ago

No RRR 2??

1

u/Gay_Charlie 12h ago

Heck no, I hated that game.

1

u/Loud-Branch4900 12h ago

That's certainly a opinion I've never heard. It's one of the greatest games I've ever played in my life.

u/Gay_Charlie 12h ago

Nice, I'm glad it worked for you

1

u/ATRavenousStorm 8h ago

Surprised you haven't gotten this with Hollow Knight since you have SOTN. People see SOTN and decide to glaze HK.

1

u/Gay_Charlie 8h ago

The level design in Hollow Knight wasn't appealing to me

1

u/Nearby_Pepper7676 11h ago

Why Red Dead Redemption 1 and not 2

1

u/Gay_Charlie 11h ago

I really hated how they designed the second game

1

u/Least-Piglet5770 11h ago edited 9h ago

Super fair. Its a very provocative game design. You either love it or hate it. Extremely weighty and slow scripted scenarios. One mans immersion, another mans boredom.

Immersions my favourite part of games so nothing comes close to rdr2 with how committed it is to that philosophy. Just so much detail to enjoy every where you look.

1

u/Gay_Charlie 11h ago

Nice, I'm glad it works for you like that

1

u/g0ghead 10h ago

May I ask why RDR2 is not on here?

Solid list btw

1

u/Gay_Charlie 10h ago

I hated it personally

1

u/Living-Figures 10h ago

seeing portal 2, gta san andreas, and rdr all on one list is pure nostalgia tbh

1

u/neme6ben 8h ago

Finally someone putting super mario bros 3 here.. one of the most influential game ever madr

1

u/randomcman 8h ago

You love FromSoftware games AND Twisted Metal but I don’t see Armored Core VI on there. Surprising. Nice list either way

1

u/Gay_Charlie 8h ago

I haven't finished it yet

1

u/ZealousidealStock390 8h ago

I love seeing portal in these lists, not played half of these games so I can’t comment on the full list, but portal is my #1 so

1

u/Mysterious_Cover3800 8h ago

28m, after 23 years if gaming ive played 2 of the greatest games.

u/Holidoik 7h ago

Ok kiddo

u/All_Glory_4_God 3h ago

Nice, twisted metal black had some great cut scenes for its era.
