I would recommend "Enslaved: Odyssey to the West". It has a very special spot in my heart!
I also really liked Vanquish, Bayonetta and Valkyria Chronicles. I, of course, don't include all the obvious and fantastic AAA games, such as Mass effect, Gears of wars or uncharted....

McScroggz3828d ago

My suggestions:

Retail:

Puppeteer
Enslaved: Odyssey to the West
Catherine
Binary Domain
Nier
Maijin and the Forsaken Kingdom
Red Faction: Guerrilla
Valkyria Chronicles

PSN:
Mushroom Wars
Shatter
Closure
Papo & Yo
Machinarium
Sine Mora
Renegade Ops
Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light
Comet Crash
Outland

howittsdone3827d ago

Good list. I loved Catherine, that game is amazing.

McScroggz3827d ago

As somebody who grew up watching old episodes of The Twilight Zone and Night Gallery, I loved the homage Catherine paid those shows. I'd be pretty happy with an episodic series of games with that theme from Atlus.

tanookisuit3827d ago

Costume Quest - If not for the charming nature of the game (thanks to the dear folks at DoubleFine), it does have a fun battle system.

howittsdone3827d ago

My ten must play games (in any order):
1. The last of us
2. Borderlands 2
3. Fallout 3 / New Vegas
4. Uncharted 2
5. Dark Souls
6. Catherine
7. Bayonetta
8. Ninja Gaiden 2
9. Red Dead Redemption
10. Lost Odyssey

PSN/XBL Arcade:
1. Castle Crashers
2. Alien Hominid
3. Limbo
4. Braid
5. Bastion
6. Journey
7. Super Star Dust HD
8. Cuboid
9. Geometry Wars 2
10. Shadow Complex

I_am_Batman3827d ago

I would recommend The Darkness, Heavenly Sword and Folklore.

McScroggz3827d ago

Ahh I knew I forgot some JRPG's! I'd also say Eternal Sonata.

dcj05243827d ago

Eternal sonta was fantastic.

howittsdone3827d ago

Eternal Sonata was amazing. Definitely under-rated. One of the better JRPG's this generation. I would love to see more games like it in the coming generation.

QThornton3827d ago

Thanks guys for the recommendations. I have most of those games already but missing key RPGs which I love.

Not a single Reistance? Fuck this article.

mastershredder15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

Starhawk over Warhawk?...... Dude, NO ONE should listen to you.

Odd choices for "best" more like you settled as these being the "best" that available to you at the time, cause a lot of these blow or were average to poor performers that ended up in bargain bin.

Missing too many great sci-fi titles here. The Void, The Resistance Series, Killzone 2 and 3, Enslaved, man.. there were so many, this is redicu-list.

FreeckyCake15d ago

Nobody should listen to you either with that attitude.

OtterX15d ago

I agree that Starhawk shouldn't be above Warhawk, however I must say that Starhawk multiplayer was incredible for its time! Many people wrote it off bc the single player was quite terrible, bc it was basically 1 huge tutorial for the multiplayer. But I can tell you never spent any significant amount of time in MP. It was doing incredibly tense base building w air, foot and land vehicle (and mech!) combat long before Fortnite was ever a thing.

I bet it would have been much better received if it had just ditched the story mode all together. So many people like yourself completely wrote it off based on reviews by reviewers that let the criticism of single player weigh heavily on their scores. I bet you didn't even play it.

Friendlygamer15d ago

The riddick games are some of the best stealth titles ever, highly underrated

YourMommySpoils15d ago

What games? All recall plating was Escape from Butcher Bay.

Friendlygamer15d ago (Edited 15d ago )

There's also the less acclaimed 'assault on dark Athena'

( also, not saying this to you specifically but there's both resistance and killzone games on the list, it's amazing how even something so simple and innocent as a game list can be turned into misinformed vitriol here lol )

jznrpg15d ago

Glad to see Resonance of Fate. Enslaved was pretty good too. I’m sure there are others nobody has listed but I’m too tired to try and think of anything

Titan fall 2 was chefs kiss. For those of you who haven't played it go ahead. Brilliant. With each level being creatively different.

Yui_Suzumiya329d ago

Island, Steins;Gate Elite and Soma.

MadLad329d ago

Soma is an epic experience.

jznrpg329d ago (Edited 329d ago )

Does ISLAND have English subs ? I can’t find a copy that says it has English subs for PS only the Switch version which I rather not buy .

Love Steins Gate and Soma

shinoff2183329d ago (Edited 329d ago )

FRom what i could find. Nothing with English subs.

Yui_Suzumiya327d ago

I own a physical copy on Switch and it does have English subtitles so it's all good on Switch and Playstation.

Yui_Suzumiya327d ago (Edited 327d ago )

My bad. Steam and Switch have English but PS4 and Vita only have Japanese. Sony doesn't mess with many visual novels which is why I only own a Switch OLED and laptop for all my games.

Actually great list TBH I agree with all 10

I hope one day we get some remakes for the following

The saboteur(with a proper remake and quality of life features this game could be great)
Scarface world is yours
Binary domain ( such a great game with great story)
GUN(this needs a remake)
Space marine 40k(such fun time)

Would also like to suggest adding the mercenary series even the 2nd game which is disliked by many is a fun time

cthulhucultist364d ago

I recently finished Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine and found it to be very enjoyable.

The game respected the lore and the gameplay was quite decent.

The color palette was a bit underwhelming (backdrops and setting) and recycled but I think that it deserved better.

Here's hoping for an amazing sequel

Vengeance1138364d ago

Space Marine II !! My most anticipated game of 2023! Woot
