Yeah.

Okay so, anyone that has been around the GAF for a while knows that a common topic of discussion is this thing called gaming taste and who has the better one.

You know how playing one game is cool, then suddenly a while later it's not? That's what I'm talking about. I basically made this thread to know what you guys think about the way gamers on GAF are evaluated (and often categorized) based on their particular tastes in games, and if you think it's right or not.

I personally don't care about having a 'cool' gaming taste, I just play what I like.

That said, I think Danjin44 Danjin44 , NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt NotMyProblemAnymoreCunt , and Heimdall_Xtreme Heimdall_Xtreme all have exceptional tastes when comes to videogames.

What about you?

xD just kidding :messenger_winking_tongue:

Thanks... it's just that I like cult games or that few people play.

Plus I have my computerized brain programmed, I know more than 500 individual video games, so I know something xD

Don’t know but it’ll be someone who…

…thought Metroid Dread was the best game when GAF somehow voted Halo Infinite to GOTY.

or

…voted Elden Ring to GOTY last year.

or

…enjoyed playing Cyberpunk when almost everybody was hating on it just because it was broken on consoles.

or

…enjoy playing Starfield even if it’s not the best game of all time.

or

…still think Super Metroid is among the best games of all time or even THE best game of all time.

We tend to love AC games and other Ubisoft games, yet 99% of gaffers shit on Ubisoft just for the sake of it.:messenger_downcast_sweat::messenger_downcast_sweat:

GAF: Another copy paste shit job bi Ubi

Avatar is day one to me, might do the usual and get the gold edition for future DLC's. Also I love Far Cry and the latest one was extremely brilliant and explored/finished every corner of the map! But FC2 is the GOAT, the best story/lore with the best hardcore gameplay.

Lots of people but I'll just say that Roberts Roberts knows his indie games. Plays a lot of stuff most people miss and can give thoughtful commentary on all of it.

You are too kind. I'm just a dumbass who always had a unhealthy obsession with underdog stuff in both films and games. And that is why I like how passionate you are about games like Wanted: Dead or Exoprimal, you know stuff that most people write off because they don't offer the polish of bigger, more expensive games.

When I think of which games have given me the most enjoyment/are most timeless this is what I get.

Smash Melee
Halo 1
Sonic 2
Starcraft/Brood War
Phantasy Star Online
Ocarina of Time
Link's Awakening
Super Mario RPG
Turtles in Time
Super Mario World
Castlevania Aria of Sorrow
Pokemon R/B/Y (I guess FireRed/LeafGreen instead)

I mean I play new games too but if I needed to pick 10 titles to be stranded on a desert island, it's gonna be tough to crack the old stuff
