Half-Life took the biggest WOW that year for me, just the start of the game alone was perfect. I was 24 at the time, loved OOT yet never saw it as revolutionary. Those big moments were Civilization in 91, Dune 2 in 92, Doom in 93, LBA in 94, Frontier First Encounters in 95, Tombraider in 96, FF7 in 97. Wind waker actually gave me a bigger wow than oot, I didn't want that game to end. So many epic games back then. (And time to play them, still not through Uncharted 4 and haven't even had the time to boot it up the past 4 days) |
That's a great selection of wow moments, I would have probably wowed pretty hard with Half Life 1 if I played in 98, half life 2 is among my favourite games ever after all.
Even if OoT was the biggest wow for me back then I actually like Wind Waker more too but the impact that OoT let on me on a first impression was way stronger.
