GTA San Andreas, still play it once a year
Doom eternal. I have never played a doom game but when I played eternal it was so much fun and the graphics looked very pleasing.
Quake III Arena
Star Wars Knights of The Old Republic, it was just incredible that I could actually interact with other aliens and characters, the atmosphere was awesome the armor of the sith soldiers was iconic and them I’m thinking “I cant believe I’m having so much fun playing a non force wielding character” and then… it happened, you go through the trials of a jedi, study the code build your own lightsaber. I still listen to the OST for Taris, Manaan and Dantoine and will occasionally install it on IOS to replay it.
Great GameCube exclusive!
Space Battle for Intellivision
GTA 3. It was unlike any other PS2 games at that time, and Rockstar blew me away with GTA San Andreas as well.

If I were to go newer, I’d probably say Red Dead Redemption 1 or 2, and for older, probably Super Mario Bros. 3. As a kid that game was my first experience with video games.
MGS 3 Snake Eater
Resident Evil Directors Cut on PlayStation 1.
Mario 64.
Taking those first steps into the 3rd dimension with Mario. I even played around with his face for 15 minutes. I didn’t get much sleep that night.
Fable
RDR2, GTA:SA, Mass Effect
FF7. Going from SNES and Genesis to those cutscenes and music was amazing.
of course COD MW1, it was like I was playing in a movie in those days, all these Hollywood cutscenes, explosions, shootouts. I even went through it especially for my dad so that he could see what kind of game I was playing.
Metal gear solid 2
MGS2. It went beyond the game and made me think about the social paradigms of life; societies, politics, warfare, even relationships, etc. I was 11
Resident Evil. That first cutscene when you come across the first zombie. That got me.
Silent Hill 1.
The Last of Us and Bioshock Infinite
Skyrim. The first time I got clubbed by a giant and flew to the heavens was insane. Loved the first few hours of Skyrim and I got it midnight release.
Super Mario 64 back in 1996. Nothing has come close to picking up that weird controller and pushing that curious little stick for the first time ever since. We immediately, without any doubt, knew this was the future of video games.
Half-Life 1 and 2
I have a few actually:
Mario 64 (first time stepping into the 3D gaming world for me)
GTA: San Andres (not just graphics but also as cultural representation in a game like I’d never seen before ✊🏾)
Assassin’s Creed (was glorious)
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild (took my damn breath away)
Bioshock. After the cinematic into where the plane crashes into the water in front of the lighthouse, I sat in the water for 10 minutes not realizing the cutscene was over lol. For the time, the graphics and were phenomenal in that game.
Halo Combat Evolved
