Final Fantasy VI (SNES, 1994)
guessed by episteme

Many point to Final Fantasy VII as the ultimate Final Fantasy experience, but its older brother is a more complete game, and a better one. Epic in size and in scope, Final Fantasy III (Final Fantasy VI in Japan) features over a dozen playable characters, all of whom carry significant emotional baggage and who endure trials that range from rafting across raging rapids to, quite literally, the end of the world. There are several unique events in the game, including an opera, a dinner party, and a number of multi-party battles, which allow the player to divide his or her party into two or more battle groups in order to fight off a multi-party enemy.

Resident Evil 4 (GCN, 2005)
guessed by S.Peelman

Before Resident Evil 4, the Resident Evil franchise had been one of the great video game series, and certainly the definitive survival horror series. With Resident Evil 4, it achieved new levels of greatness. Set in a rural village somewhere in Europe, Resident Evil 4 follows Leon S. Kennedy (one of two heroes from Resident Evil 2) in his search for the missing daughter of the American president. Capcom removed the fixed camera angles that had defined previous installments, and allowed the camera to follow Leon wherever he went. Thus RE4 became something of a survival-horror and third-person shooter hybrid, with some RPG elements thrown in for good measure. The game is thrilling, terrifying, and addictive, all at once.

Still need to finish this... Have the Wii version, for like two years now, but I only got to about a quarter before whatever happened and I moved on. Now it's there on my shelf just screaming to me to finish it. What I played thus far was pretty good though.

The toils of a backlog .

I hear that. The backlog defines my life  

But I definitely recommend moving RE4 to the top of the list. It's really a special game.

Maybe I should... I'm so random in these things though, I just jump from game to game from console to console. It's a mess.

I'll just put it by my WiiU, don't have anything story-based to play on that at the moment, soooo...

I missed the last 3 weeks due to finals and Christmas. I hope your Holiday has gone well, and I would like to post my last huge chunk of clues.
There’s a lot here… and I really want them to be guessed so I’m going to give out some bonus hints if they aren’t guessed soon.

20. “sorry to keep you waiting!”
19. This game is the first appearance of the popular game character that says “I have fury”
18. A respectable movie platformer based upon a 1990s Pixar movie franchise for playstation.
17. In this game, Mario shot out super balls instead of fire balls, rescued daisy instead of peach, and fought some sort of alien instead of bowser
16. Some consider this game a spiritual successor to Mario paint. But in this game you create your own “microgames”.
15. Next level games revives a retro Nintendo franchise for the first time.
14. Mark Hamill voices the main villain of this 2011 release. (unfortunately his character dies)
13. The hardest boss in this action RPG actually is not the final boss of this game, but actually the skeleton brother of the first boss, who is at the bottom of a 100 floor pit.
12. This charming game have players create and share levels they create themselves. And its only on playstation.
11. The hub world for this 3d platformer is a giant version of the main character’s head.
10. I discovered this video game through an Easter egg in call of Duty: Black Ops
9. The most polarizing (and considered to be the “darkest”) entry in this long running series action adventure series. Has a popular urban legend about a cursed version of this game.
8. In this game you aren’t truly ReDeemed until thRee years after you die.
7. This game was so good and sold so poorly that IGN (I know) started a campaign to encourage people to buy it.
6. This game stars a military penguin, a secret space agent monkey, a boxing yeti, a kangaroo, and (of course) a purple dragon.
5. This facial animation in this game was not only the best in the industry, it also was an integral part of the gameplay.
4. I played through this game and got 120 stars, just to unlock the ability to replay through the entire game again with my preferred characters.
3. This Action JRPG exudes youth culture. Multitasking is essential to the battle system, if you wear popular brands your attacks are boosted, but if you are good enough you can set new trends. Food takes time to digest, missions are given via cell phone, and you get experience for each day you don’t play the game.
