ok, my latest Youtube video was a list of disturbing video game bosses, and i gotta admit, i had fun making it, going through all my old games and finding things that were giant WTF moments... and now i'm thinking...
Who would be with me in helping if i was to create another list?
anyway, i'm thinking of making a list- Game Changing Series!
basically, i list game series that have changed the industry, and reasons why...
I'm thinking Mother for adding emotion into games, Super Mario Bros. for bringing platforming to a new level, Legend of Zelda for adding puzzles to the hack'n'slash genre, Metal Gear for its overall gameplay (do i run though and blast everything, or sneak and remain un-noticed?), Fire Emblem for its intuitive terrain bonuses and the weapon triangle, Final Fantasy for constantly reinventing itself and with it the RPG genre, Starfox for bringing us the instant classic - Do a Barrel Roll! and also being one of the first games on a console (not including computers) to include 3d graphics with flat shaded polygons, and Golden Sun for including the use of magic (known as psynergy) both inside and outside of battles...
has anyone got any other suggestions?
