Silent Hill 2: As a writer, I can surely say that the writing in this game combines both the melancholy and symbolism that put Steven King to shame – I assure you. I walked away from that game with something from every vector. The soundtrack was beautiful and done by Akira Yamoaka whom is now one of my favorite musicians; The voice actors are interesting people in real life aswell; And without sounding too discursive, the game made changed me into a calmer man.
Starcraft & Broodwar: This game’s simple and direct plot has to be one of the most fun and relate-able to date. It mimics American and European history realistically with a lot of well written dialogue and fun gameplay. It also separates three distinct races that you can play pending on your style -Zerg for me- and preference. The game’s cut-scenes are drenched in overwhelming violence and cutting edge dialogue. This game perfectly represents Human Being’s stero-types in a dark and wet nature. Great title.
Half Life 2: This game’s atmosphere and environment mimic my own writings and ideas so well, that I actually envy the writers for portraying it so well. I, personally, side with the Combine and adore Dr. Breen. In fact, I hate Gordon Freeman and hope he either fails at the end or realizes that what he is doing is futile or unnatural.
The limit is three, so I can’t get into Resident Evil 1-4 and Bioshock.
