No, most known from Aliens.

Yeah FFIV is clearly among the best FF game out there. The DS version is even better.

My thoughts exactly! When I saw the FFIV pic I was like ohhhhh yeah, at last some love for this game... but no, still FFVI getting all the love. Yeah FFIV was linear and nothing really made it an innovative game... but damn I love it. Maybe it's just nostalgia since it was the very first RPG I really got hooked to…

I'm in the middle of FFIV right now, and man. This "North East cave" with the Dark Elf is a pain in the ass!

This was my first RPG. It's been years since I've played it, but I think it's the only RPG that I've done multiple play-throughs of. Wonderful game.

Why it's worth playing: It's the Final Fantasy game that set the template for what most people think of Final Fantasy. Rather than a limited tabletop-RPG sim, FF4 was the first Final Fantasy game to push a narrative that played out like an Arthurian tale. This story has it all: friendship, love, betrayal, kings and…

Why it's worth playing: It's the best Final Fantasy game, and a good entry point for any genre newcomer. It's also aged surprisingly well, and although it can be tough for beginners to figure out where to go or what to do next, any JRPG newbie will enjoy exploring FFVI's world and meeting its lovely cast of…

The DS cart for this game has pushed aside many a newer game to hold a place in my 3DS carrying…

Playstation 3 owners can grab the digital version of the game that started the Souls series, and my favorite of the three, for just $11 today. Umbasa. [Demon's Souls digital, $11]

Oh Umbasa......

Wow, I did not see strangled kittens coming into play at all. I don't even know how to process that level of pure, universal cock blocking.

Counterpoint:

The shotgun from Half-Life 2 would get my vote. In a game with a gravity gun, this was still my favorite tool to take out baddies. The secondary fire is just so powerful.

Fun story: I once rented Doom for the Snes as a kid and was so scared of the label in the cartridge I never actually played it.

Still the best video game shotgun.

Privateer is one of my fondest video game memories. I hope to god this game is messianic.
