Requesting a sticky on this.

Basically just a whole thread to keep recommendation topics from cluttering this subforum up.

Every Paper Mario game except for every Paper Mario game except the first two (*cough*theonlygoodones*cough*)

Oh and if you haven't played Splatoon yet go buy that now. Probably the best game so far this year.

Super Paper Mario defiantly.

I've been thinking about getting a Vita for a while (mainly for BlazBlue and Sf x Tekken), what are some good platformers?

Dust: An Elysian and Freedom Planet are pretty great.

Also Metroid and Phantasy Star are god-tier IMO. I really should play the 'classic' Phantasy Star games eventually (I started with Portable and have yet to play anything pre-Online except for the one time I played Phantasy Star II and wandered around aimlessly like a headless chicken).

Are the first two Atari Godzilla games any good? I only have Unleashed and I was wondering about the rest of this 'series'.

Much agree. They're one of the very few reasons I want Sony consoles.

Banjo-Kazooie. First one is best, Tooie is great. Nuts & Bolts is good but not nearly as good and isn't nearly the same. Grunty's Revenge is amazing.

Sonic 3 & Knuckles
This is perhaps one of my favourite games of all time. It's so good. I replay it at least once every month. Yeah, it's that good. Sonic 3 & Knuckles is created by locking the Sonic 3 cartridge and the Sonic & Knuckles cartridge together. You can play them separately and they'll still be a ton of fun but playing them together just makes the experience that much better.

Even better, the soundtrack is composed by Michael Jackson.

I should recommend Pac-Man World series. It's a series of platform games with classic Pac-Man elements. Much people probably know the first World, for PSOne and GBA. But, I think that not everyone played the sequels. World 2 keeps a similar style while adding some interesting things, like various different game styles with vehicles and other items. World 3 has a more dark tone, more story development (but not so much) and a more combat-focused game. The last one was Rally, that is a Kart game with some World elements. It's not as good as Mario Kart or Crash Nitro Kart, but it's fun.

I'm considering buying a PS4 but I don't want to buy it if there aren't any games I'd like on it. Simply suggest any good games, no matter the genre. Convince me to get this thing.

For some info, the only current gen system I have is a Wii U and the only Playstation game I have played before is Kingdom Hearts 2 for a short bit. This'll be my intro to Sony.

Being sincere, I should recommend you another Sony console, if you're thinking about exclusives. But, if you're thinking about the multi platform games not released in the Wii U, PS4 or a good PC would be a good choice. But, about exclusives, I think that past Sony consoles (or a PSTV) should be better. But, you know, the PS4 exclusives are very popular. I'm only saying this because it's not my gaming taste.

Thank you! I've been asking for this for a good while.

Now then...

Should I get The Witcher 3 now or wait for a complete edition? For that matter, at what point allow the game to be patch because I heard the patches changes the game quite a look compared to the vanilla edition.

awesomerockets: Have you looked at Freedom Planet or Shovel Knight? If you like platformers, I couldn't recommend them any higher. If you like RPG's, I recommend Super Mario RPG, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon, or one of the Mega Man Battle Network games. Lastly, there's also the Metroid Prime Trilogy, which is pretty good value, being three full games in one.

try elder scrolls or fallout, but if your looking for more medieval game-of-thrones-style genre mporg then skyrim is probably the best one, my fav is skyrimbut oblivion looks pretty good too
elder scrolls is great if your a big dragon and other mythology fan

I'm looking for recommendations for 3DS games. I'm getting my younger sister a 3DS for Christmas and I'm not sure which games I should get/recommend to her. I'm definitely getting New Leaf. I also want to get her a Pokemon game, but there are several available on the 3DS, is there one in particular that is good for beginners in the series? Also, right now she's playing Rayman Legends, Skyrim, Tearaway, Ratchet, Song of the Deep, and The Talos Principle, so she seems to like running, jumping, and puzzle solving. Thanks smilie

As someone who owns and has played every game in the series. If you're new to the Fallout games, start in chronological order.

Reason being is the first two are brilliant and most people who start at Bethesda's Fallout flat out refuse to play Interplay's originals mainly citing the turn based system.

I understand that a lot of people don't like turn based RPGs, but if you appreciate a well crafted story, extensive and interesting lore which almost feels like your reading a novel, start at the beginning.

Uhh, i'm not sure where I'm supposed to ask this/if anyone will see it, but
I recently got Bayonetta 2 and I'm loving it. As far as I can tell, there's nothing huge that I would need to know from the first game to enjoy this one, but I can see the few nods and characters. I was wondering if I should get Bayonetta/how do I even get it? I know there was like, some release of it on the Wii U but it's ****ing expensive. Is it on the Nintendo Wii U shop or? Also, I do not own a ps3 or xbox so no i cannot play it on either of those consoles.

A Link to The Past, Link's Awakening DX, Ocarina of Time 3D, Majora's Mask 3D, The Wind Waker HD, The Minish Cap, Twilight Princess HD, Spirit Tracks, A Link Between Worlds, and Breath of The Wild are the best ones.

Skyward Sword is good, but the motion controls really drag it down for me. Still an enjoyable game, just really annoying controls.



I think you're forgetting something... three, to be exact.

You know them, I know them, everyone knows them... I don't think I need to say it.
