What game holds a special place in your heart?
What game holds a special place in your heart?
We all have that one game that holds a special place in our hearts. What game is it for you?
For me, it's Metal Slug. Growing up, every Monday, my parents would drag me to the laundromat after work. As a kid, it was a pretty boring, but I had my toys, origami books, and coloring books to keep me entertained. However, my favorite thing to do was playing the Metal Slug arcade machine with my dad.
My dad was great at the game, and he taught me how to play. Though I improved, I could never keep up. When I'd inevitably die, he'd let me take over his side to let me have a bit more playtime. My favorite part was when he'd share stories from when he lived in another country and would go to the local arcade.
Those moments are cherished memories, and even today, whenever I visit an arcade, Metal Slug is the first game I play, despite still being terrible at it haha
Honorable mention goes to Mario 64, another game that holds a special place in my heart. I got an N64 from a garage sale, and playing Mario 64 while at home, with my mom's "chore" music in the background ignited my love for gaming

Probably a lame answer, but Minecraft for sure. No other single game has stuck with me this long, and I have so many good memories of playing it over the past 12 years. Sure there are franchises like Mario Kart and Animal Crossing I come back to every time there's a new entry, but Minecraft has been this continuous thing that's just always there, and I can never really stop playing it for more than a couple months before it brings me back.
The only other piece of media that's stuck with me so long is a book series that's still getting new releases every year or so.
Modded Minecraft is like a drug
Actually technic pack would probably make this list for me. No modpack, Minecraft or otherwise, has transformed a game in such a way I love.
Probably the reason I got into Satisfactory so much when I tried that out.
I love going back to Minecraft once or twice a year.
I have so many good memories in that game and there are friends I made while playing Minecraft Hunger Games that I still talk to today and I met them back in like 2013.
Whenever I first started playing I took the PVP route, but now I mostly play survival with friends. I truly love that game
