Before Arkham Asylum came out comic book games were always expected to be mediocre or bad but Arkham Asylum changed everything. Glad to see it made the list!
Dude I remember playing it when it came out, tbh it was perfect time too, a year after the dark knight, which is epic, and this game is even more EPIC.
Chrono Trigger is a game I re-visit every 5 years or so. A few years ago I was playing on my tablet and my little 8 year old nephew was fascinated by it. He's a gamer now and played through it multiple times. It holds up so well. And it was the first game to introduce the concept on NG+
New colossus was decent enough but there were some points where they tried too hard to be edgy or the gameplay was just awful, can't recall seeing anyone praise the courtroom shootout sequence.
I recently played Dishonored: Definitive Edition for the first time, and wow that game is a classic. As a Deus Ex fan I had no idea what I was missing. Amazing atmosphere and the gameplay holds up really well. Looking forward to playing Dishonored 2 and Prey at some point too.
If you have Playstation Plus Extra or PC Game Pass, both Dishonored 2 and Prey are available. If you want a sci-fi survival horror-esque setting, Prey will blow your mind.
Wish they’d pick up Deus Ex, and make a new one with a team who understands what was great about the original. The sequels were okay but not even in the same league as the original. Owning an IP does not equal a good game. (See also Dragon Age Veilguard)
Even though TF2 is relatively old at this point it deserves a sequel more than probably any other game and must be an incredible experience when played with a huge TV and high end PC in 2024.
@tontsar91 Yeah but I doubt EA will do anything with it. They could make another awesome campaign, coop missions and the multiplayer would be able to have so much in it. Get to work EA, I'm sure it would make money.
Gyaaa. It's been on my stack for 3 years. I finally started the main campaign last year, got 1 chapter in, got sidetracked , then played Ghosts of Tsushima instead. I keep forgetting I need to play the campaign in earnest. Probably have to start a new character since I forgot everything...
I'm kinda sad they aren't coming out with the 3rd Division game (the free to play one) they previously announced. To be expected with the state Ubisoft are in, but it's a shame.
@@RandalphTheBlack don’t need to play both I’m sure everyone will say 2 is better more refined and modern but one has the winter NY setting which is very hard to beat
I think Prototype should be on this list. Watching the Wolverine game made me think of it because it's a little similar when you have the claws power in Prototype.
I've been going back even further with my games recently. Just played through the Warcraft 3+Frozen Throne campaigns and had a blast. Now I'm starting the Chronicles of Riddick Escape from Butcher Bay.
@@thewolfdog123 Don't have too, want to. I even got both of them working with the ultrawide monitor despite the games being 20+ years old. You can hate the games all you want but it doesn't steal my joy. :)
Loved Dragon Age Origins so much. And honestly I found the character building and leveling to be more fun than 2 or Inquisition, because the skill trees were so broad that you had so many options to choose from. I felt like a little kid on the playground, "my warden is a blood mage and an arcane warrior that wears heavy armor and she only uses lightning and ice elemental magic!!!!"
MIrrors Edge, Bulletstorm, Crysis, FEAR, Half Life 2, Mass Effect 1/2 Bioshock 1 and Infinite, Battle Zone 1 and 2... Every couple of years I play through 1 or 2 of these.
@blueshit199 I played it in 2005. It doesn't really hold up these days, but I still enjoy it. Something about the office spaces and atmosphere just do it for me. I'd love to see a remake of the first game.
@@GeminiWoods yeah perhaps it played better in 2005. then again, in 2005 I was playing Painkiller, Unreal 2 and Far Cry and I think those games are still a lot of fun. definitely had more variety in their scenery, at the very least
GTA IV has the most brutal combat, and if you get drunk and get into a car, you don't automatically sober up in moments. There are car physics, and the entire game is just dark, gritty, and brutal.
a few games i would add: mass effect legendary edition batman arkham city witcher 3 skyrim nier 2010/nier automata zelda twilight princess borderlands 2
I used to like it but when I hit you with a sword I expect you to stagger yet when hitting enemies in skyrim they dont react minus a grunt. Kind of dumb looking and immersion breaking. @@abhinandanil7775
Ys 8 brought my love for gaming right back. I went through a slump of games that would not interest me at all, and for the first part, I thought ys 8 was no different. But something about it clicked with me, and I ended up platinuming it. It was just such an amazing, nostalgic game that reminded me of how gaming used to feel when I was young. I might even boot it back up for another playthrough !
@@remwsandrey6515 i have it on my wishlist on steam and im really excited for it. i never finished monstrum nox though. i have it installed but i just kinda stopped caring about it about a third of the way in
I'm so glad you put Alien: Isolation at the first spot in this video. As soon as I saw the title, that game immediately came to mind. It's SUCH a great experience. I play through it every couple of years and it never gets old. Alien: Isolation 2 HYPE!!
Dude what? I’ve played through that entire franchise and you’re just purposely making that weird, she doesn’t moan, she goes “oof” and does a grunt. Go touch grass and talk to a real woman.
I mean...given the fairly extreme situations she's in, it'd be weird as fuck if she was silent the whole time. That lady takes an absolute shit-kickig in the last trilogy, I don't see anybody staying quiet for any of that.
The Batman TellTale Batman game is the best QTE game of all time. Great story, the art style makes it feel like you're playing a comic book. Great time
I'm one of those people liking rdr1 over rdr2. Sure, second game has a great story and graphics, but first one also has a great story and is much more entertaining without all the timewaste
I´m currently playing Dragon´s Dogma 1 and it´s a great game, well worth revisiting for those who played it and enjoyed their first time, also Sleeping Dogs is such an underrated game, still holds up today both visually and gameplay.
I remember playing Dragons Dogma when it came to PC. It was an alright game but my biggest problem with it was the piss poor fast travel system and repetitive monster types. And I still haven't forgiven myself for choosing to romance the middle aged King's teenaged wife over the very sexy French female Knight 💔
@Blu3Blaze18 i finished the game and enjoyed but i feel you, the fast travel is fine if you collect the crystals. I agree, the enemy variety is somewhere lacking after mid game and the romance was weird, i didnt know it was a thing so the game gave me the guy who i helped in a secondary quest, i was confused but then read about it, still weird but fine ...
@FredMendesMusic nice I finished the game too but the the only reason why I chose the really young Queen was because TH-camr I was watching was in to her and I was a easily influenced college kid back then. I didn't beat the Dark Arisen expansion because I was burnt out of the Archer class by than and I got bored of using the enchanted Knight class way too quickly 😕
I aint going to lie! I jumped backed when the alien got the player under the desk even though i knew it was going to happen! Isolation is a top 15 - 20 game of all time for me! Chefs, kiss! I can't wait for isolation 2! Let's gooooo!!!!!🎉
For Arkham Asylum the Asylum Reborn HD texture pack just got finished a couple weeks ago and there's also upscaled cutscenes, makes the game looks significantly better.
It’s absolutely insane and well deserved how Rocksteady blew up with Arkham Asylum. They made an amazing FPS back in the day on PS2 called Urban Chaos. I highly recommend you to check it out.
It's hard to think of other game franchises that came out of nowhere, were incredibly innovative and pretty much every entry in the franchise oozes quality.
No Far Cry Primal? I recently played that game for the first time and had an absolute blast. Despite being simple, there’s just something so primally satisfying about beating things with a club. Fellas give it a try if you haven’t
Primal was such a good step after I played 4. And it for some reason scratched the Far Cry itch for me better than 5 did. Primal was so beyond underrated for how fun it was. Not to mention, how they developed the spoken language in that game was absolutely incredible and I actually LOVED how they implemented it. The VA's alone should've gotten more recognition for that i think.
@@rainegingerfish8860 YES. I sunk so many hours into it without realizing. One of the few games these days where I couldn’t stop playing it. Like I said despite being very basic it’s so satisfying
I actually shed a tear when Chrono Trigger was mentioned. Like you really love this game so much falcon 😢 I can hear how much passion you talk about it, yeah I know it's a gameranx thing but damn. Chefs kiss
Yep one of my all time favorites. FF6, too with the pixel remaster. Some nice Quality of life improvements that help a lot, too. I actually like it more than Chrono Trigger. The Score is phenomenal too, even for a FF.
@@PhaRoaH87 no i produce sodium bicarbonate, if you believe only McDonald’s is the only place to work Sunday, I’m guessing you still living off your mother. I doubt you even understand what sodium bicarbonate is. Don’t be an ass hole.
@@PhaRoaH87 I really doubt you’re even gonna understand this, Probably still locked up in your mother’s basement leaching off of everybody else, but I work in a sodium bicarbonate facility , I take care of soda ash I grade one grade 2 grade 5 with the facility as well as main industrial and industrial grade 5 as well as human grade and animal feed. Don’t be an asshole . Hopefully you’re literate enough to understand that.
@@neiluk78 You enjoying it fine but that doesn't make it a great game. It's literally far cry in tps or just another just cause. Not great, ok. Why would I play this then those games?
Thank you! The longevity is exactly what makes Alien Isolation so much better than the standard horror game. Every playthrough will feel a little different.
@@corruptedpoison1 Absolutely fucking NO thank you. They could give it the treatment that Super Mario RPG got, that's fine, but FF7's remake is so far off that it's basically not the same game anymore. Not saying it's trash, but it's definitely NOT what most FF7 gamers actually wanted the whole time we were asking for a remake in the first place.....
Another legendary game I don't see often mention is Lufia 2. Such a unique mix of JRPG and Adventure. No random battles and you get new tools to explore dungeons like in a Zelda game.
@@Astraeus.. My bad, still, you spend way more time in dungeon trying to figure out the puzzles compared to the world map. To the point I even forgot there were random battles
Lord of the Rings Shadow of War, still have so much fun with the nemesis system. Also planning on doing a replay of Mass Effect trilogy on legendary difficulty this winter.
#1 game that most people overlooked and should try is Tunic! Never judge a book by the cover. That game is a soulslike with some of the most satisfying exploration I can recall in a videogame.
I want to thank the gameranx team for all the years of informative and entertaining content. It is with a heavy heart that I have to leave my passion of gaming behind in pursuit of new things. The state of the industry and a bleak horizon, combined with a severe lack of enthusiasm on my part has lead to a decision to seek new highs. 3 decades of being a die hard fan of gaming, for me, is quite long enough. I wish all of you nothing but the best, and hope that you are able to hold on to that passion. Res Ipsa Loquitor, let the good times roll.
I jumped outta my seat when you mentioned Chrono Trigger! Hands down one of my favorite games of all time that I always go back to. The fact that it has so many different endings for a game that came out so long ago still blows my mind (15 endings) 🤯 Love the soundtrack too.
As someone who has never played a fallout game or been a fan of it, I just played New Vegas and it was INCREDIBLE. Apparently there are a ton of mods that improve it, so I might replay it with some
I just downloaded Watch Dogs 1 last night, and modded it using your video from back in May :) I commented then that it was a great video, and it also turned out to be very helpful!
I have personal favorites I will always go back to (Fallout 4, Mass Effect Legendary) and a huge backlog of older games I haven’t yet played (Borderlands, No Man’s Sky, Control…) but/and these lists are fun, and remind me of how rich with choices the gaming world can be.
Your fault for buying that useless console. You can get it on ps4 and ps3. And pc always exist. I hope you were not asking for remake or remaster. Because we wait for gta 6.

Chronic Trigger 🥹🥹🥹
I guess fuck Marvel Ultimate Alliance 1&2 🤷🏾♂️😂
Batman was great but their were a handful of pretty good comic/movies games from the early mid 2000 Spiderman wolverine lord of the rings
Skyrim can't be added to this list because no one actually stops playing Skyrim, they simply take a break.
Genuinely insane how replayable that game always seems to be
THIS.
It's definitely not worth playing Skyrim. It was okay back in 2011.
And we never finish it God that game so good
I haven’t replayed Skyrim in over 12 years

Wolfenstein the New Order and Tomb Raider 2013 are very underrated.
I kind of like them more than their praised sequels!
The new colossus is crap, to put it kindly.

New colossus was decent enough but there were some points where they tried too hard to be edgy or the gameplay was just awful, can't recall seeing anyone praise the courtroom shootout sequence.
New Order is fantastic. New Colossus is pretty good too but NO is superior.
@@devilgames2217I thought it was still a good game but it’s way to short, only has like five locations and the story jumps the shark more than NO

You’re gonna love them. Prey (2017) was so, so good. One of my all-time favorites.
Prey is the only game i dropped but returned to and loved it. It's always on sale too.
Wish they’d pick up Deus Ex, and make a new one with a team who understands what was great about the original. The sequels were okay but not even in the same league as the original. Owning an IP does not equal a good game. (See also Dragon Age Veilguard)
I remember that the jump from san andreas to gta iv was mind blowing.
Very True
I remember the news organizations freaking out when IV came out because it would destroy the youth lol.
It was staggering. I remember booting it up for the first time and just wandering around for the first hour taking in the sights.

I actually shed a tear when Chrono Trigger was mentioned. Like you really love this game so much falcon 😢 I can hear how much passion you talk about it, yeah I know it's a gameranx thing but damn. Chefs kiss
Aaaand always remember the worth or revisiting Dishonored and Prey!
I loved Prey, but I really need to beat Dishonored🤦♂️
@@thegamingfan5222 go for it, beat the beast 😉
I have Dishonored on the list of games to play.
@@thegamingfan5222 go for it, beat the beast 😉
Oh yeah prey for sure gotta get back to that maybe tonight
Silent Hill 3 in there with Chrono Trigger is a fantastic choice. Good list!
YS 8 & 9 are underrated gems, can’t wait to play Nordics
I don't know why but i feel obligated to mention Darksiders 1 and 2 especially 2 with that amazing music.
Also OG Resident evil 4 !
The og ff7 is a good one to revisit every now and again
Yep one of my all time favorites. FF6, too with the pixel remaster. Some nice Quality of life improvements that help a lot, too. I actually like it more than Chrono Trigger. The Score is phenomenal too, even for a FF.
Ys is such an underrated series, nothing but bangers. Thanks for shouting it out
Kingdoms of Alumar. Started playing it recently. Underated RPG.
It really is underrated. I loved the original so much. Even managed to turn someone else on to it. Still haven't played the remake but I'm going to.
💩💩💩
I am always thankful when you guys tag the chapters of the video with the names of the games!
Thanks for watching! :D
Perfect timing for me! I just beat Final Fantasy 7 for the first time and unsure what to play now.
Final fantasy 9!
no backlog? lucky you 😂
@@FSousA7X i have a massive backlog of like 300+ games, it’s always fun to choose what to play next though 😂
Oh, finally Ys series hitting Gameranx ❤ That's dope
I remember putting some of these games in my backlog when they came out... Man how the time flies...
Time keeps on slippin
@@Mrchair905into the futurrrre.
Dawn of War 2 is such an odd choice considering 1 and Space Marine but I respect it.
Hey falcon, it’s folks.
Thanks for uploading right on my break time!
🤝🦅
Break time on a Sunday? What you work at McDonald's or something.
@@PhaRoaH87 no i produce sodium bicarbonate, if you believe only McDonald’s is the only place to work Sunday, I’m guessing you still living off your mother. I doubt you even understand what sodium bicarbonate is.
Don’t be an ass hole.
@@PhaRoaH87 🤦♂️soooo many more jobs out here that require weekends, King Sass.
@@PhaRoaH87 I really doubt you’re even gonna understand this,
Probably still locked up in your mother’s basement leaching off of everybody else, but I work in a sodium bicarbonate facility , I take care of soda ash I grade one grade 2 grade 5 with the facility as well as main industrial and industrial grade 5 as well as human grade and animal feed.
Don’t be an asshole . Hopefully you’re literate enough to understand that.
Thanks for this beautiful trip into video game history!
The old Splinter Cell games still hold up phenomenally well. Chaos Theory still holds up as the best stealth action game today imo.
Yep they're timeless classics.
Awesome games buddy, have you played Ghost Recon wildlands aswell?
@@neiluk78 No wildlands is bad.
@@nikobellic8002 I enjoyed it, great game.
@@neiluk78 You enjoying it fine but that doesn't make it a great game. It's literally far cry in tps or just another just cause. Not great, ok. Why would I play this then those games?
Thank you! The longevity is exactly what makes Alien Isolation so much better than the standard horror game. Every playthrough will feel a little different.
I wish SE would give us a good port of Chrono Trigger. Maybe an HD-2D remake like they're doing with DQ3, or even go full 3D like DQ11.
Full 3D game like FF7 remake
@@corruptedpoison1 Absolutely fucking NO thank you. They could give it the treatment that Super Mario RPG got, that's fine, but FF7's remake is so far off that it's basically not the same game anymore. Not saying it's trash, but it's definitely NOT what most FF7 gamers actually wanted the whole time we were asking for a remake in the first place.....
Leaving Armadillo at night when the stars are out and the whistling music kicks in is one of those great moments in a gaming world.
Another legendary game I don't see often mention is Lufia 2. Such a unique mix of JRPG and Adventure. No random battles and you get new tools to explore dungeons like in a Zelda game.
The fuck you mean no random battles? Dungeons don't have em, but the overworld for sure does.
@@Astraeus.. My bad, still, you spend way more time in dungeon trying to figure out the puzzles compared to the world map. To the point I even forgot there were random battles
Lord of the Rings Shadow of War, still have so much fun with the nemesis system. Also planning on doing a replay of Mass Effect trilogy on legendary difficulty this winter.
It’s funny how more and more gamers are returning to the OG catalogs 👍🏻 me included!
Gamers have returned to old games they've enjoyed since the start of gaming.
We have to. Look at the products being put out today, and the delays in between. The OG classics are where it's at for the most part.
#1 game that most people overlooked and should try is Tunic!
Never judge a book by the cover.
That game is a soulslike with some of the most satisfying exploration I can recall in a videogame.
Just started Deus Ex Human Revolution and having a blast!
Nice
I never asked for this
I want to thank the gameranx team for all the years of informative and entertaining content. It is with a heavy heart that I have to leave my passion of gaming behind in pursuit of new things. The state of the industry and a bleak horizon, combined with a severe lack of enthusiasm on my part has lead to a decision to seek new highs. 3 decades of being a die hard fan of gaming, for me, is quite long enough. I wish all of you nothing but the best, and hope that you are able to hold on to that passion. Res Ipsa Loquitor, let the good times roll.
I applaud you for recognizing when a hobby is no longer fun for you. I know you’ll find something else you like even more.
Funny thing, Tomb Raider 2013, Wolfestein The New Order and Batman Arkham Asylum are the 3 games from list i've installed again last week
I jumped outta my seat when you mentioned Chrono Trigger! Hands down one of my favorite games of all time that I always go back to. The fact that it has so many different endings for a game that came out so long ago still blows my mind (15 endings) 🤯 Love the soundtrack too.
Witcher 3 and Tomb Raider. Have dropped so many hours on those.
And dropped so many enemies in those
Thank you!! for this video. i have been off the gaming world for like 13 years and just now got back into it. So this is PERFECT for me.
holy shit, Ys 8 mentioned
Nice to see DA:O on the list I was playing through it when watching the video, definitely still stands up.
The graphics in Alien Isolation have held up so well.
So happy to see Dawn of War II mentioned. One of my favourite game EVER, and I never see it talked about.
Wish Xenogears(also a classic) would get the treatment that Chrono Trigger has gotten of late.
In this day and age this is the kind of video we all so desperately need.
As someone who has never played a fallout game or been a fan of it, I just played New Vegas and it was INCREDIBLE. Apparently there are a ton of mods that improve it, so I might replay it with some
You should play Fallout tactics
He's got 1, 2, and 3 yet to play and you recommend TACTICS first?
Being a father of a toddler and a new born I have been playing my backlog on my Legion Go and this is perfect for me to try some more!
PREY 2017 deserved more Love !! ❤
Big time. Such a great game.
The one from 2006 was way cooler
I am currently playing Wolfenstein: New order and its still awesome!
Fallout NV i already revisited 5 Times with 900+ hours of gameplay.
🤝
I just downloaded Watch Dogs 1 last night, and modded it using your video from back in May :) I commented then that it was a great video, and it also turned out to be very helpful!
This is truly the best channel ever
Thanks to all your support.
Thank you so much for adding timestamps with titles insted of just 1,2,3,
Can't wait for the next Alien game. I missed sweating playing a horror game.
Same
Alien VR comes out in December 😁 that'll be interesting.
Play visage and outlast
I have personal favorites I will always go back to (Fallout 4, Mass Effect Legendary) and a huge backlog of older games I haven’t yet played (Borderlands, No Man’s Sky, Control…) but/and these lists are fun, and remind me of how rich with choices the gaming world can be.
2:54 desperately need a way to play gta4 on ps5!!!!!
Your fault for buying that useless console. You can get it on ps4 and ps3.
And pc always exist.
I hope you were not asking for remake or remaster. Because we wait for gta 6.
Sorry man, I just replayed it on pc. Even split my time playing portably on the Deck, got to play while on a flight recently.
@@nikobellic8002you cant play it on ps4
@@nikobellic8002boohoo
that's a bummer
Replaying that Alien Isolation right now. Honestly one of the best looking Switch games too!
Solid game right there!
The ps3 store is still online. You can only access it from a ps3
Did we miss any games that should have been featured?
@@gameranxTVmaybe Bully or The Warriors, but Rockstar already has enough representation
One of the Best Decisions I made was subscribing to this channel. THANKS FOR ALL THE AMAZING CONTENT
Resistance trilogy ?
Couch coop Resistance was great
Resistance was awesome.
Loved them at them at the time. Gameplay aged terribly.
@@ryanbartley3152 yeah so imagine a remake
For that we need part 2. Cause there are too many games from 2010s that you can make a series out of it
