Around the Network

World 6 from Super Mario Bros. 3. I guess I have a penchant for punishment.



Not really a level... but

Earthbound - Winters



Ah yes the Journey one is by far the best one imo. So much emotion in that level, I shed many tears with that game :'(



 

Freezeezy Peak - Banjo Kazooie (N64)
Winter in Animal Crossing New Leaf (3ds)



Around the Network

Crash 2 - riding the little bear levels.



Hmm, pie.

Not a really a level but yeah, Journey... :'(
Really got to me.



Paper Mario's Happy Valley! Absolutely loved the music there, and the Crystal Palace that followed was also a delight.
Super Mario 64's Frappe Snowland (I think that's the title...) was another one that was a blast to play through.



Hmm

I love snow levels. Some of my favorites are

-Donkey Kong Country 1's level where the snow storm moves in from the distance.
-Actraiser's snow map.
-Zelda: MM snow Goron zone.
-Super Mario Brothers 1 snow levels, like 3-1. Back in the 80s, the snowy trees and night background was a great contrast to the blue skies and green trees. Added an element of mystery.
-Snow zones in Halo 1, especially when you get to fly an alien spacecraft and there's snow flakes in the air.
-Final Fantasy 6 - the mountain village.
-Xenoblade snowy zone - the Shoulder I think.
-I'm pretty sure FF12 had a cool snow zone too, I can't remember the details of it at the moment.



Not really a level but I guess a section or area of the game. The Last of Us. Ellie had to take care of Joel while he healed and it was when you played as her. It was when she finally learned how to fend for herself. Very memorable part of the game and in general.
