A vast island, with nooks and crannies aplenty waiting to be explored, where going off the beaten track was not only encouraged but required. This was an RPG par excellence, explorable at every level, and its perfect balance of good graphics for its day with a truly open world environment has rarely, if ever, been bested.
Journey was a game about companionship and the freedom of death. Players weren't told who they were playing with, and only had the option to help each other, forcing players to trust one another. This competition-free approach to multiplayer combined with the game's beautiful allegory for life made Journey an instant classic.
With its over-the-top sometimes-on-fire gameplay, it ushered in new wave of arcade sports games emphasizing craziness over realism. But Jam 's precise gameplay made it a standout over imitators. Metal Gear Solid gets credit for popularizing the stealth genre. Bringing the Metal Gear series into 3D, the game let players sneak around real environments, hiding from guards and hiding bodies. Using elaborate cutscenes and voice acting, Metal Gear Solid 's cinematic presentation made its deep story of top-secret infiltration rival Hollywood blockbusters.
Nearly 20 years after playing Metal Gear Solid , I can still remember what my first time was like. It was my introduction to stealth. It hadn't even occurred to me that not killing enemies could be a fun alternative. Even today, every time I see a security camera in the real world, my instinct is to remember it, just in case I need to sneak past later. And because the game's story was designed and written for adults, it taught me that games had grown up just like me.
It set the stage for my next two decades of gaming. Revolving around the construction and management of a Dwarf colony, Dwarf Fortress is a game you can't win — you simply play until you're done or defeated. The open-ended gameplay and unique use of text-based visuals made the game an early example of an indie game becoming successful solely based on its unique gameplay and style.
Rogue created an entirely new genre. Elements of this dungeon-crawler, like randomly generated dungeons, permadeath and collectible weapons and items, gave birth to a wave of games called "roguelikes. FIFA 12 took the long-running sports series and turned it into something beautiful. The host of new features made it a faithful recreation of soccer, allowing players to not only play the sport, but manage their teams down to the sheer minutiae.
Most players just call it FIFA. Why is FIFA great? To this day, Super Mario Bros. Its success isn't limited to just genre, though. The game also helped pull the video game industry out of the calamitous s crash. A return to the series' original top-down perspective, A Link to the Past 's Hyrule was massive — especially for the time — featuring numerous dungeons and two overworlds. It was " the purest representation of the time-honored Zelda formula ," according to GameSpot.
Giving players control over nearly endless mechanics and outcomes, Civilization 2 played a part in making its games among some of the finest-crafted experiences the industry ever had the fortune to play. Castlevania: Symphony of the Night carried the legacy of 2D games like Super Metroid into the bit era — when sprites had fallen out of fashion. And it also happened to have one of the most polished, explorable worlds ever seen in a game.
What Portal lacked in length it more than made up for in unique, experimental gameplay based. Portal's puzzles allowed players to experiment with the best — and coolest — ways to progress with their Companion Cubes. Reinventing how running, jumping and action worked in three dimensions, Mario 64 was one of the first games to explore how 3D spaces could replicate what players loved in 2D. It also experimented with freedom of movement and open levels that later became staples of the genre.
Inspired by creator Will Wright's interest in urban planning, SimCity established the city-building genre. Giving players the option to mark areas as commercial or residential, build transportation systems, adjust tax rates and more, SimCity revolutionized the simulation genre with its amount of content and depth.
Praised for its revolutionary AI, gameplay and realistic physics, Half-Life 2 is the standard to which many first-person shooters are still compared — though few have managed to make the same impact.
Blizzard's decision to add three races to StarCraft revolutionized strategy games, opening up new tactics and playstyles, and ultimately solving a problem many found with strategy games.
StarCraft introduced the idea of diversity to strategy games, paving the way for others to experiment with different playstyles. Grand Theft Auto 3 changed the world. The dawn of the modern Grand Theft Auto game, it showed how open worlds could work, with sandbox gameplay allowing players to do nearly anything they wanted.
Its violence, too, intrigued and scared the wider world, bringing levels of media attention unseen before in games. Darker than earlier Final Fantasy games, FF6 tackled tough issues like infidelity, suicide and genocide. Giving players, for the first time, access to 14 playable characters, each with their own levels of emotional attachment, Final Fantasy 6 was a bleak, memorable, standout in a series known for great experiences. Final Fantasy 6 isn't just a great game — it's one of the rare examples of a moment of true elevation for the medium as a whole.
Beyond crafting a brilliant role-playing game with complex mechanics that can take dozens of hours to master or break in delightful ways , Square demonstrated the potential of video games as a vehicle for storytelling. I'll stop short of calling Final Fantasy 6 perfect, but its winding, epic steampunk plot and massive cast were ahead of its time and still hold up today as examples of the depths of emotion that this medium can achieve.
Arriving decades before the indie explosion, Super Metroid is still a common template for 2D and retro inspired indie releases housed under the "Metroidvania" subgenre. Its package included a beautiful game full of immense detail, massive open-ended levels and a meaningful arsenal of weapons and tools.
After all these years, Super Metroid has stuck with me. There are plenty of reasons why. The super-detailed environments? The massive boss fights?
The unforgettable soundtrack? Those all probably played a role. But the real reason it has dug its way into my heart and stayed there for over 20 years is the ending.
Specifically the "twist" in the final boss fight. I can't bring myself to ruin it for other people, but that moment perfectly opened the door to the potential of video games. That video games could make me feel something more than just the satisfaction of being good at the game.
That I could feel emotionally moved or attached to pixels on a screen. I'll never forget it. When you get people to compete, you bring in a lot of quarters. The game that kicked off the fighting game boom, Street Fighter 2 was a massive success at getting people back into arcades.
And it went on to define the SNES library as well. A few years ago, I asked a bunch of people who worked on Street Fighter 2 why they thought the game had been so successful. The most common answer was the competition — not only did rivalries make the game fun, but they made players continually pump in money. Personally, though, I'd give the credit to how precise the controls felt and how well the special moves played off one another.
In Street Fighter 1 , you'd jump and the game would awkwardly slingshot your character around. In Street Fighter 2 , you'd jump and your character would peak at just the right height to clear a fireball gracefully — leaving both you and your opponent thinking about what to do next. The game made you feel like you were in control, which made everything else fall into place.
Minecraft never tells players "no. World of Warcraft set one of the highest watermarks in games, and Blizzard has continued to support it for more than 10 years. The game recently crossed the million lifetime accounts line, thanks to constant expansions, updates and iterations. Praised for its massive open world, passionate community and deep quests, World of Warcraft is a masterclass in attention to detail that has kept players coming back.
Continually fettled, tweaked, updated and expanded since its launch in late , Blizzard's record-breaking MMORPG has evolved into one of gaming's all-time greatest escapes. Featuring a vast, incredibly rich environment packed with a mind-boggling volume of activities, World of Warcraft isn't just a game; it's a second home for millions of players around the globe. Its secret is its inclusivity. From hardcore players working through an elite raid with military precision to the Sunday afternoon casuals wandering the world in search of adventure, WoW really does offer something for everybody.
Pac-Man normalized video games. Its addictive-yet-rewarding gameplay loop of eating Pac-Dots and running from the ghosts created a bonafide phenomenon, enticing people of all ages to take a stab at the arcade machines.
Few games changed the course of history the way Pokemon Red and Blue did. The first games in the Pokemon series, Red and Blue turned the franchise into a global phenomenon, even before it transitioned into a multimedia titan with television shows, movies and a massive collectible card game.
The original games — Red and Blue for those of us stateside — were simple: Travel across the Kanto region to prove yourself, with a team of six new monster best friends in tow. It was as basic — and powerful, and fun — as that, and no other series or even games following in its footsteps have captured that spirit better.
Doom made rockstars out of nerds. Led by video game luminaries John Romero and John Carmack, id's landmark first-person shooter birthed the massive popularity of the genre, spawned countless imitators and made the two Johns millionaires. Introducing players to a world and characters they would live with for years to come, The Legend of Zelda was an incredible action role-playing game with tight controls and a great sense of exploration.
That it came out so close to the original Super Mario Bros. Introducing many features that went on to define the series, Super Mario Bros. SMB3 also exhibited a generous respect for its players, rewarding them for taking the time to explore each level for secrets. Requiring a strong balance of strategy and reflexes, Tetris defined what it meant to be a puzzle game.
Rarely has a game so thoroughly dominated its genre. It doesn't matter who you are; you've played Tetris — something not easily said about most games.
Tetris was simple in its set up and masterful in its execution.
