Ocarina of time. All Zelda games since are to some degree compared to it in terms of how successful it is monetarily, gameplay and story-wise. So many modern adventure games are based on this one game. It’s the game that finally made target tracking in 3D work. It’s so well thought out, that a blind streamer is able to play the game probably better than I ever will. If most common people know of “zelda” it’s because of this game. There are so many memes from Zelda in general. It’s one of the few games from my childhood that I will replay for the rest of my life.
Marathon, by Bungie. From the box it came in, to the hugeness of the spaceship, the coolness of the story, all the secrets, and the fan community that sprang up to research and theorize.
And then they made it open source so anybody could play it on any computer.
It's not favorite game to play any more, but it was the greatest game to me.
At 152GB: hitman 2
Really tho, tetris has been at the top for a while
Mass Effect 2
Masterpiece and my actual favourite game.
I'm tempted to say either The Witcher 3, Grand Theft Auto V, or Metal Gear Solid 5 (if you can look past the fact it's unfinished).
All three are exceptionally polished, have huge, highly detailed world's to explore, cinematic moments with blockbuster action scenes, smooth and balanced gameplay, are suitable for gaming noobs and veterans, and has moments to goof off and dick around.
It's hard not to be biased, though I'll state I don't personally like GTAV, I think it's perhaps too ordinary for my tastes and feels too restrictive in its mission structure.
Runescape. It's been around for more than 20 years and still is one of the most active online games.
There are to many genres in gaming so if we reduce the scope to only card games (which is obviously the only relevant genre), It's slay the spire obviously.
Asteroids
The next soulslike from FromSoft that doesn’t molest you with the camera. They proved it’s possible with shadow of the Erdtree.
Jokes aside, Slay is absolutely incredible. How a developer managed to make a strategy game as replayable as this before 2000, I don’t know.
Mario Galaxy for me. Idk I just like it, especially the music
