Why can't we just post the spoilers in tags? Just mentioning the game is no fun.
Live a live.
Btw: We had this thread not so long time ago, but I like such ones, they always have nice recommendations. So there is that.

Kotor is my favourite twist even tho I could nowdays see it coming but I was still a kid when I played it and it blew my mind.

Soul Reaver II had an extraordinary and unexpected twist at the very very end of the game, that immediately and overwhelmingly changes the meaning of much of the story we have learned so far.
The twist left me breathless. As the credits started rolling, my mind raced back to Blood Omen, Soul Reaver 1 and what I knew about the then upcoming Blood Omen 2, as I reconsidered the story completely due to the twist.
It was marvellous, the best kind of twist. You can replay the previous games again with knowledge of the plot twist, and much of the dialogue and events have a much deeper and more sinister meaning. It takes extraordinary writing to pull that off.

MGS2 does have a good twist IMO even when it seems to have a lot of haters. It is little crazy but it makes perfect sense and the whole game is build around it. Actually even the whole promotion of the game was built around it so it is the best kind of Kojima crazy.

Knowing that there would be a twist at the end of Bioshock Infinite did not make it any less enjoyable for me.

Infamous' was genuinely cool and thought provoking, would have made a good ending to a superhero movie rather than the usual 5min smackdown they tend to have.
The 2nd one had good endings too, though less twisty and more melancholy. Really looking forward to how the PS4's entry will fit in to the world and how cool it's ending will be.
KOTOR's is obviously one of the most famous and genuinely left my jaw on the floor, I remember resetting the game right away just so I could go through that moment again to take it all in.
MGS3's is a tear jerker and spawned the immortal gaf pic for when we salute lost awesomeness.

I've never heard of Ever17. I'm torn between asking you what it is and looking it up.
I don't want spoilers -- what is it and what system is it on? PC I assume.
I was like "WHAAAAAATTTTTTTT!!!!!!"
pretty much my exact list. you're a good friend.

Because I'm looking for suggestions for games to play.

I remember just before the 1st game was released everyone wanted to burn Kristen Bell on a pyre coz she revealed the whole game take place inside the animus rather than it being genuinely set during the crusades, then everyone bought the game and realised that's the 1st thing they tell you when you start. lol.

I'm really wondering about the craze surrounding Coco's route.
I've only finished Tsugumi's route last time I played so I'm honestly perplexed as to what could possibly happen that makes people gush so much about it.
Maybe I should dig it out and continue from where I left off.

This too but it is even better if you played the original.
Shame the game itself is ass.

PC and consider it the predecessor to those two games since it's also written by the same guy. The format is somewhat the same as well but without the puzzle-solving gameplay.
