You can't buy them anymore. They're all got delisted from every store by the publisher.

For me personally, any game in the Super Smash Bros series.

They've always been a go-to when hanging out with friends, in their time.

Melee still has a following. Nobody likes brawl because of tripping (among other things i'm sure), but I learned how to mod brawl and added so many custom stages and character skins. Sm4sh was ok, and Ultimate is so complete.

Yeah it's Nintendo and "it's always moral to pirate Nintendo games" and there's plenty to complain about their online services but I've played smash so much that every time a new game comes out immediately a must-buy.

Binding of Isaac for me. Endless replay value.

  1. Hollow Knight
  2. Steamworld Dig 1 & 2

Hollow Knight is just amazing. Reinvigorated my love of Metroidvania-style games. The atmosphere, the environments, the movement, the controls, the music, it all works so well together. Just amazing.

Which leads me on to the second recommendation. Steamworld Dig and its sequel are pretty unique in the genre. They're Metroidvania games, but you're creating most of the tunnels and platforms as you go. Great character designs, and smooth progression all the way to the end.

I have been playing a lot of Arma reforger and rimworld lately and I love both but they definitely won't meet everyones taste.

As i sadly have not found them here:

-Gothic (all three). One of the first non-us-centric and it showef

  • giants:citizen kabuto. Weird genre-mashup that also was funny.

And a ton more I'm too lazy to list.

I remember having a demo for giants: citizen Kabuto, it was a weird and fun third person shooter. The thing I remember most is the initial quest giver guy and the way he would say "huuungry" something about it stuck in my brain

I played that demo too! I just remember the quest where the cranky old dude was like "Ahh, I forgot THE WIFE! Go get me wife for me" and I cracked up at how nonsensical it all felt.

This feels like a unique one I should actually put the time into. It just felt so "weird" in a good way! I could never tell exactly what kinda game it was from the marketing.

I have been really, really enjoying the reworked Wayfinder. The story is ass but the visuals, gameplay and music are all awesome. The characters are likable, the build variety is pretty great, and the devs seem to be pretty in touch with the community lately. I never played it in its MMO state, but for $20 it's a real win.

I think the 1.0 release comes out in a few days, too!
