minus-squareQuazatron@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·4 days agoElite - a huge 3D vector universe to explore. Tetris - adictiveness distilled. Driller - oh wow, filled 3D graphics on a 3.5MHz 8 bit micro? Wolfenstein 3D - shooting nazis is fun. Doom - incredible, improved graphics and more fun. Quake - full 3D now, but not as fun as Doom. Half-Life - oh yeah, now we’re talking. Great storytelling and gripping fun. Portal - fun, engaging and funny. Bioshock Infinite - I guess I enjoy riding the skylines. Torchlight - There’s something cozy about those dungeons, I dunno. Skyrim - how did I lose 900 hours of my life?
