metal gear solid, ico, dragon quest, team fortress 2, paper mario, street fighter, or the MYSTERY WILD CARD?!?!?!?
-Metal Gear Solid has a great line of characters, along with a story that can either be taken seriously or jokingly. The gameplay is fantastic and my favorite MGS game is the third one. I can't wait for MGS Ground Zeros.
-Ico is just great. Great. I love how little it needs to use dialog to explain the story, and it's art style is grand. This game is a staple to many things, one including soft light graphics and another one being bloom lighting. I had replaced the North American box art with the Japanese one right when I had the chance.
-Dragon Quest, 8 preferably, has a warm touch of its bright use of colors along with enticing gameplay. I love how you get your entire party right at the beginning, gradually sure, but still at the beginning. I am currently playing DQIX with Makanix on my team!
-You've heard enough about TF2.
-Paper Mario is a game that any age group can play, while still being enjoyable to all of them. It's battle system is simplistic yet still makes you keep a bit of mind fighting tedious battles. It is really creative, and I can't wait for Sticker Star.
-I don't know what to say about Street Fighter. My hands will forever feel carpal tunnel and my mind will regret not buying an arcade stick.
I think the best street fighter other than 2 is 3 alpha.
-AND THE MYSTERY CARD?!?!? Boktai. Preferably 2. I like how this game forces you to go outside to get some rays so you can actually play it, and I think it was the best game that used the importance of time, sorry Majora's Mask, because the time in the game couldn't be altered without actual time moving. And it's like both MGS and ICO in terms of gameplay (for the first game) and how the story was told slowly, respectably.
