Hint for #28:

This was the first game in a huge series with sheep-inspired music to jump to high definition.

Sheep inspired music? I really have no idea so I'm just gonna ignore that and guess...

Wind Waker?

Wind Waker?

Bah!

(Nope :P)



Hints:

29. Third game in a series but deviates heavily from the mechanics of the previous two games.

28. Full blown sequel to a very small game.

Aww, it was also my guess. But I never posted it because, well, I have no idea what "sheep-inspired music" is supposed to mean either.

Bah Bah!

Hint for number 29:

The developers behind this are already featured on my list, this title was a spiritual successor to a much lesser known title by the same studios and is considered a highlight in the 7th gen, in particular noted for its grit and emotional story.


Sounds like Red Dead Redemption.

Not even close. Let me post the hint again.

#29: A dead man and an imaginary person. Great group.

Hint 2: HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA-HA

"Get the case, Sam. Nothing personal, buddy. Take care of him, and I'll see you back at Dodge. Sam? Sam!"
"The French guy was pulling the string."
"One day, you and me, are gonna dance."
"You hear about Slater? We think the cops got him. We saw what was left of his car."
"We got ourselves some work in LA. We gonna do our gangster *bleep* there."

Sorry about the obscure game quotes.

Another hint for the game #28: It's best to know how to drive in this game, because you can't get out of the car if you wreck it. And if you wreck the car, you fail the mission.

Driver?

Correct.

You got it.



#29: Final Fantasy X (Squaresoft, 2001) - PS2 (also on PS3 and Vita)

The first Final Fantasy on my list, but make no mistake: I love this game. Alongside XII, it was the first FF game I've beaten (though not the first one I played, that was VIII), and it left me a HUGE impression. The voice-acting was pretty stupid, yes, and the characters were hit or miss (Auron is one my favorite on the series, I like Tidus, Yuna and Lulu. But couldn't care less for Wakka, Rikku and Kimahri) but everything else was so good. The graphics I believe still hold up well to this day, the soundtrack is standard FF quality (that is, excellent) with several AMAZING songs (Zanarkand, anyone?), the gameplay is tons of fun too: I love the ability to change party members mid-battle. And while it does get rid of the ATB and is a little bit slower, that also makes it more strategic, which I really enjoy. Sadly, I wasn't able to buy the HD Remaster yet, but I'll get to it eventually.

 

#28: introduction of one of the most recognizable and iconic game mechanics - even though its debut wasn't exactly ideal yet (but future versions of this game would fix that).
