What do YOU think is the best game of ALL TIME and why? - Page 15

I don't think a "remake" is a bad thing. A "remake" in the current sense, though, is. The Hollywood "let's remake it but change it" formula sucks. If you took any game, like I mentioned earlier, update it to current level of aesthetic prowess seen elsewhere and then add to it (not change, add) I will never say no. Hell, I'd go out and pay $50-60 right now for an updated (not just an "HD" release, either; has to be fully revamped graphics) version of Ocarina Of Time for Wii U.

the great games shouldn't have to die with their platform.

Great games shouldn't have to die but I don't think they will. With the emergence of online "arcades" and online play a lot of games are popping up. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles IV I downloaded a demo for on my 360 (with updated graphics). So you'll see those popping up.

Here's a little story about not letting games die: back when GameCube came out and they released that Zelda bonus disc with Ocarina, Majora and a couple other games on it, I had to have it. I came across only one way to get it: own 3 or 4 Nintendo games, send them the UPCs or whatever and they'd send you a copy. Being young and having no internet-buying prowess at the time, I saw my life flashing before my eyes. I wasn't going to buy the crappy games they wanted UPCs for, so I had an idea. I went to my local video game rental store (I believe it was a Rogers Video) with a pen and paper and proceeded to copy down the UPCs for all the games. Went home on the tubez, plugged the information in and now I have that collector's disc. And I think I'm going to start playing it...

Oh, and TMNT IV kicks butt. There were a few SNES games that just rocked the house. Like Aladdin.

This thread inspired me to replay Ocarina of Time, but as i lack a working N64, i decided to upload my own playthrough and share it on youtube using the Project64K emulator.



This game definitely is one of my all time favourites without a doubt. It's somewhat sad that no games can really top it - not even Nintendo again. Does anyone else feel that the remake of this game for the handheld is a bit poop? It sucks that they've really cartoonized it to appeal to a younger audience. Heck, on this games release, even the artwork for it seemed far more darker and realistic.

I guess I am one of the few that think Majora's Mask was better, which was made by Nintendo. I think the reason most people like OoT better is because it is more nostalgic.

Nah, the Life's End mod for Half Life had the best story. biggrin.gif

Hey, I found a speedrun of the entire thing. It's gets hilarious around 8:30 where you have a hallucination and then go on star trek. Warning: Spoiler! (Click to show)

Best half life mod ever. Well, actually the scientist slaughterhouse mod was pretty hilarious too.

Probably all of the original pokemon games for gameboy which i probably spent 1000+ hours playing. Along with pokemon stadium on N64. Diablo II and Halo I and II. Hands down, best games ever created.
