What's the best game you've never played?

[reallyscrued]

WRONG!

I've already tried. The fucking foreman bullshits me and says they got no positions. Then I watch him drive to 7-11 and pickup a dozen jokers standing around.

Wait, this isnt P&N. Why are we doing this?

Anyway, I think the very best game I havent played recently is ID's Rage.

WRONG!

You're an imbecile.



I would like to add Forza and the Gran Turismo Series to my list.

Never owned a Playstation and I only had my 360 for a brief period before I realized I could sell it and buy a decent mid-range video card and never have any issues playing games since I am technically proficient.

How would I know if it's the best if I never played it? This whole thread seems idiotic honestly. It's like saying what is the best pussy you never had. How the hell would you know if you haven't slept with Scarlett Johanssen or Charlize Theron?

Because everybody who has ever followed gaming knows that there are certain games that are spoken of in reverential tones by gamers. If everyone says Legend of Zelda is one of the best games ever, but I've never played it, it's one of the best games I've never played.

I think the intent is to identify what games you regret not playing, or haven't gotten too yet. You know. "Such and such said that X-15: Desert Ranger was 'Da Bomb' and i really wish I had played it back in the day. Maybe i will someday." That type of thing.

It helps to not be so literal and just go with the flow a bit. Or not...

A good Iron Man game. I feel like Iron Man has a lot of potential for a really good game, if it was just done properly.

Hell, just take Just Cause 2 with the superman mod, give him an iron man skin, some different weapons and refine the flying controls and the game would be awesome.

Meh

I've played most every game I've wanted to play so I guess I would have to throw out the one generation I missed out a bit on and say Majora's Mask and Goldeneye were supposedly great games I missed out on.

Still the topic seems kinda lame.

It's really not. It was just worded funny, the OP thought they were being clever.

It really just means, "What game does everyone seem to LOVE and got outstanding reviews that you haven't played?"

"Best you never played" just sounds more quaint. People take thread titles a bit too seriously.

It could have something to do with that being what we read first and what draws us into the thread....shocking, I know.

 

[thraashman]

Well, probably quite a few.

Fallout
Fallout 2
System Shock
Deus Ex
Eternal Darkness
God of War
GTA
Diablo
Diablo 2

 

[Zorander]

Baldur's Gate 2
Black & White
Deus Ex
Grand Theft Auto 3
Max Payne (all of them)
Planescape: Torment
Ultima VII: The Black Gate & The Serpent Isle (did play a bit but never finished)

Well, yeah. But it's also all about context. Plays on words can't always be taken very seriously.

 

[shortylickens]

Those of you who havent played Fallout, Baldurs Gate, Icewind Dale and Planescape REALLY need to get them.

Seconded.

Still the topic seems kinda lame.

so I guess I am not sure why you continue to post if the topic is so lame.??

 

[GrumpyGamerLP]

I love Fallout 3. It was very immersive.

 

[Franz316]

Planetscape Torment
Fallout 3
Bioshock

Does it have to be absolutely never played? I tried BG1....but did not enjoy it at all, so I quit within an hour. BG2 I didn't end up hating within an hour like I did with BG1, but I didn't feel the need to keep playing the way I did with Torment or Fallout 1&2.

On the consoles, I've got Uncharted 2 sitting almost completely unplayed. The first level was a museum in a third world country that had more security then your average military arsenal.

Yes, it absolutely needs to be. You have to go back and edit your post or else risk an infraction.

Baldurs Gate sucks for the first hour, which is a shame cuz it probably turned off a lot of people who would have otherwise liked it.

 

[Regs]

I guess I can add Diablo to the list.

It does start out a bit slow. But once you get to Bergost it starts picking up. By then you have a party of sorts and know a bit more about what you are up too.

BG2 had more of the right idea, throwing you into the thick of things in Irenicus' dungeon. And who could not love David Warner voicing him?

 

[slpnshot]

If it's not limited to PC games mine would have to be Kingdom Hearts and Fallout 3.

 

[Rambusted]

I never played any x-com game, civilization in any form, I own warcraft 3 battlechest and never installed, I just started skyrim today but havent played for more than a min to make sure it worked ok.

Not just a dungeon, but one of the larger more complex dungeons in the whole game.
