I was just wondering: what are your top 10 games? If you had to choose, what games are really special to you: influencing your imagination the most?
Some may be nostalgic and most don’t have to have the most complex amazing story I’m sure:
My list:
1.Panzer Dragoon Saga/PD Series
Just a blend of mystery fast paced joyful battles and beautiful graphics for the Saturn! The best looking game on the Saturn and I believe this surpassed FF7 at the time! You know it’s my top game when I devoted an entire F’n website to its legacy!
2.Skies of Arcadia
I love the characters, gorgeous painstakingly detailed graphics, story and wonderful world you explore!
3.Chrono Trigger/Chrono Cross (counting this as one)
This was my first RPG! I’ve grown very attached to these characters over the years!
4.Brave Fencer Musashi
A very whimsical charming action RPG. It has wonderful music, a heartwarming story and engaging, varied gameplay!
5.Final Fantasy 10
I think this FF tells one of the best stories. To me these characters felt natural even though some people can’t stand Tidus, I thought he was the most believable one of them all! I think all of the characters have good chemistry.
6.The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time/Majora’s Mask
This was a game ahead of it’s time and I just love Zelda puzzles!
7.Nights Into Dreams
Just full of color and imagination. I really adore this games visual presentation and unique gameplay!
8.The Granstream Saga
This is one of my nostalgic games. I played it for the first time with an old friend. And even now I
still love the world and characters and music of this game.
9.Mystical Ninja Goemon N64/Goemon’s Great Adventure
This game just filled my mind with Japanese eye candy! The levels are so imaginative and the platforming and boss fights are so fun! I also really enjoy the very upbeat trance inducing music!
10.Sonic CD
This Sonic felt a bit edgier; maybe a bit darker with the added American OST. I also liked how Sonic was designed in the anime intro and ending. I think this look fits him best and wish they would make a sequel…
