This game is surpassing my insane expectations that I placed on this game. It's more perfect than I ever could have imagined.
Miyazaki is truly the best in the business at his craft.

Only played 2 of the games on your list. Both were good.
Have fun looking up Tiamat's Plot Guide to Dungeon & Fighter.

Wow. That's just...wow. I'm actually amazed at that.

First Black Gravios down.
Good god that was a challenge that was great. I loved the fact that breaking the back disables his body discharge attack following the beam, but doesn't disable the discharge when used as a singular attack.

Only on the second boss but the boss design and layout completely put everything DeS, DS1, and especially DS2 try to do to complete shame.
I was waiting for someone to post this.

LIKE I THOUGHT I LIKED THE INTERCONNECTEDNESS OF DkS OR Demons', but THIS FUCKING GAME THOUGH.

IT ACTUALLY FEELS LIKE YOU'RE IN A FUCKING CITY.
Ok, here's top 10, kind of in order of preference, and kind of in order of when I thought of them:
10. X-COM: Enemy Unknown
9. The Secret of Monkey Island
8. Red Dead: Redemption
7. Halo 3
6. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
5. L.A. Noire
4. Civilization 4 Beyond the Sword
3. The Last of Us
2. Mass Effect 2
1. Metal Gear Solid 3
(That's without franchise repeats, or I'd have several Metal Gear, Mass Effect, Halo and Monkey Island entries. Also, it'd be more than 10 entries)
Also, P3 will probably make this list, but with the exception of Civ 4 and X-COM, these are all games I've beaten, and I'm actively playing P3. (I'm really bad at dealing with permadeath, or I'd have beaten X-COM.)

I don't think the majority of them are shitty games, rather that the ones you listed fell under my personal realm of "good-ass" game.
I'd think San Andreas is the best one on there but
well I've never really played GTA so...

Chrono Cross is a game I don't hate, but it is definitely not a sequel to Chrono Trigger.
I forgot a few games because I've played literally all of them and it's hard to remember that much
1. Skies of Arcadia: Legends
2. NieR
3. Project M(Also melee because it's the same goddamn game but more unbalanced)
4. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
5. Fire Emblem 7, the best Fire Emblem with the Best GIrl.
6. Suikoden III I guess because I haven't played 2 yet
7. Banjo Kazooie
8. Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
9. Shadow of the Goddamn Colossus
10. Xenoblade Chronicles
1. Skies of Arcadia: Legends
2. NieR
3. Project M(Also melee because it's the same goddamn game but more unbalanced)
4. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
5. Fire Emblem 7, the best Fire Emblem with the Best GIrl.
Sierra. By which I mean Lyn.
7. Banjo Kazooie
8. Donkey Kong Country Tropical Freeze
9. Shadow of the Goddamn Colossus
10. Xenoblade Chronicles
I wanted to put a Mario Game in but I couldn't decide between Galaxy 2, Paper(both 1 and TTYD) and 3D world for sheer fun and content played, so I just put Metroid Prime in there instead. Lists are hard.

Jesus Aaron, watching you fight that first boss in the SA2 LP is painful

So in all the reviews of bloodborne and impressions and stuff i always heard that ammo for your gun was really limited. I have 20 on me and 99 bullets in storage....

San Andreas is the second best gta imo. It's just after 5 and before vice city.

Mass Effect 1 >>>>>>2>3.
Took out games I've never played, they're all good games.
Civ 4 best civ.
Uhm... I like those two.

I don't think I've ever played a video game in a long time where bosses feel like fucking bosses and not just tougher enemies.

Keep watching until I play the last 3rd of the hero campaign drunk.
Then keep watching as my friend is even worse than I am throughout.
Hey, I really liked that game. I can forgive its faults for all of the great stuff it did, like the interrogations, and the entirety of the homicide desk (I fucking love Rusty.)
Also, the credit song made me tear up a little, which I don't often do for games.
The game is really good and I loved it. I loved Chrono Trigger but that game didn't have this beast
I didn't get much choice on the games I got when I was younger so eh...But now that I'm an adult I can buy whatever I want. Especially creepy anime games for the vita
what about shadow of the colossus

I can't even think of the last time I got that hype over a bossfight, I think it was like MGR and DMC3.
Yeah I have 18-20 at almost all times. They drop shitloads, and I'm always running around with 20 health items. Super fucking generous.

I think LA Noire is the most angry I've ever been playing a game.

That hasn't been a problem for me either. Maybe it is in issue later in the game or for people who are use to relying on shields?
The two that I have encountered so far have been great.

I like 2 better than 1 primarily for the character development. I'll freely admit that 1 had the better plot, but I really enjoyed getting to know the characters, and seeing them grow.

I've also stopped using the gun and am just using my Transformed
Ludwig's Holy Blade +6
Ah, okay. What weapon are you using?
The first level.. Hnnngg...
IT'S A GODDAMN CITY WHERE YOU GO DEEPER INTO THE SEWERS AND THEY EVEN GIVE YOU BUILDINGS TO EXPLORE.
I think people are griping about only having 20 bullets at once. They probably use it as an attack rather than a parry weapon.

Skla, you might be right.
This two screen battle system is so cool!
And the music!

Well, to each his own, I suppose. I'm curious, though, was it any specific part, or just the game in general?

The beginning and end of ME2, having played it immediately after ME1 showed through super hard as awful awful awful plotstuff. It got me kinda buttmad and it getting dumb at the end kinda sealed it. I admit the middle is a pretty dang solid game.

Just beat him right now. And not just beat him, fucking abused him. Only used like 4 blood vials too and none
on his last form.
God damn it, this game feels fucking amazing. The level of care, craft, everything is just on another level
I'll just stop you right there. Tropical Freeze is fantastic, but DKC2 is the clear superior.
I didn't say it was the best mash-up, I just posted it here because it went up super recently.
Also I honestly think there's too much clutter happening in ILMFH for it to be best mash.

Not just me, its a universally loved game. Glad you're enjoying it, because it only gets crazier and better from there.
Its a mechanically deep game, but can still be enjoyed by anyone looking to have fun. Its a perfect game for basically anyone and is a game that can only exist on something like the DS, without making major changes to its combat mechanics.
The switch cleaver thing. Thinking about trying out the hammer out once I get enough shit.
Yeah, on replays, I rush to the middle, and sit there as long as I can. It's not a great plot, and some of the fights are kinda bullshit (fuck Harbinger and the praetorians), but I really, really enjoy the new characters introduced in the game, and the expansion of the characters from ME1.
