This list has to be taken into context. Those games were like magic to me when I played them when they originally released.
Final Fantasy IV (SNES)
Resident Evil
Final Fantasy VII (When it first came out. Now, not so much. I remember buying a lot of magazine that had article about it, pre-release)
Shenmue I'd go to one of the local game shop just to watch the trailer that played on their TV. I really couldn't wait for this game to come out. And when it did, it was pretty much everything I wanted it to be... Except... It wasn't complete. I'm still dreaming for a Shenmue 3
Killer Instinct (arcade) When this game came out, it trashed every other 2D fighters when it comes to visuals. To this day, this is the fighting that I played the most. I'd probably be able to buy a car with all the money I spent on that game at the arcade.
Warcraft 2
I think that's about it... I feel I'm forgetting something.
