What 15 games couldn't you live without?

The question bears asking: What games would you never part with? And by that 1UP means what games in your collection, if you had to choose, say, fifteen, would you not 1) sell, 2) give away, 3) lend, or 4) or otherwise part with on a meaningfully permanent basis.

Dark Heart is an OOLLLLLLDDDDDD RPG. It had a pretty cool ambience to it. But the graphics suck big time today...;)

Oh, and Planescape Torment and Ravenloft: Strhad's Possession were GREAT also!

6110d ago
Gorgon6110d ago

Yes, Myth for the Amiga! Great stuff indeed!

And while I'm at it, I'll add a few more great stuff I just remembered:

-Darklands
-Dune (adventure game)

Gorgon6110d ago

Yep, those were great too, although Simon the Sorcerer was not my type. But the other ones you mention I also find them great!

yeps, those were great times indeed. Some times I think that was the real Golden Age of Gaming in terms of sheer inventivness and originality. Nowadays everything seems so bland in comparison.

I was hoping for something different from Coalition, not Gears 6 so soon.
Their expertise in UE development could've propelled them to try out other IPs using the new UE5.
But guess, given recent MS' state, Gears 6 was the 'safer' call for the studio. But still hope they venture other IPs or even other genres ... at least FPSs in future?

Alexious5h ago

Microsoft seems only interested in maximizing profits through its biggest IPs at this point.

Fishy Fingers2h ago

So soon? Its been 5 years since Gears 5, longest gap between games in the franchise.

XiNatsuDragnel7h ago

I was hoping for better but Microsoft being safe again....

MrDead3h ago

Why would people be less angry? If MS made it's own games instead of buying up what was already available then we wouldn't be in the situation that everyone is angry at.

MS is the problem.

miyoka2h ago(Edited 2h ago)

Just forget what happened and keep supporting Microsoft!

SonyStyled15m ago(Edited 7m ago)

Everybody pays for or uses MS in some form personally or professionally. If that’s considered supporting, it hasn’t been helping Xbox.

PRIMORDUS2h ago

Fuck MS and Phil. I already told that shit bag off on Twitter, if the dumb ass responds I highly doubt it, I will go off much worse. What a fucking disgrace MS and Phil are to the gaming community.

I love Ratchet & Clank so I will indeed be keeping an eye on this.

DivineHand1256m ago

Same. I am a big fan of the series and feel it is criminally underappreciated by the community at large.
