So in light of my crappy mood last night and how I alleviated it a good deal with F-Zero, and the fact that two of the other general video game preference threads involve hatred of games either by you or everyone else, I wanted to make this! Positive gaming, yo!
What are those games that just make you feel good, whether it's the atmosphere, or the game's feel, or the music, or some memory you have tied to it or whatever? What are the games you can and will constantly come back to and enjoy? They don't necessarily have to be your top favorite games (though there's sure to be overlap there), there are many games I really like that I wouldn't consider to be "feel good".
A few of mine are:
Wind Waker: The sailing and the whole atmosphere of the game is incredibly chill to me, and even though I've beaten it 7 times I'm sure I'll be back to play it some more. Sailing around and just exploring the world without a guide is one of my favorite things to do, ever.
F-Zero GX: Guuuuh, love this game, the tracks and planets are incredible and the soundtrack kicks ass (except for some of the character themes and Big Blue but at least there's that remix you can unlock). Plus the totally campy cast is a big plus to me.
Metal Slug X: Favorite of the Metal Slugs, favorite game to just try to see how far I can go on a single credit, though I've never actually 1cc'd it. All the weirdness of the game, coupled with the gameplay and the satisfaction of getting power-ups like the Metal Slug or the ROCKET LAWNCHAIR and using them to take out the guys who you were taking cover from before, slowing taking down with your pea-shooter.
So tSR, what games are your best buds forever and will always be there for you?
