Games you think are perfect

[Bobbyloujo]

How about Crisis Core? I really liked that game.

 

[Fear Zoa]

Dark Cloud 2 (Still my favorite game ever)
999
Burnout 3
NFS underground1&2
And Mercenaries 2 (I know its terrible and glitchy and the physics suck but that's why I love it)

 

[lufere7]

Pokemon Gold
Metroid Prime
Final Fantasy VI
TLOZ: A Link to the Past
999
Ever17
Fire Emblem 7

Can anyone argue with Shadow of Colossus or Katamari?

When I see you say "perfect", I imagine you to mean a game that delivers the experience it promised and also that the experience is enjoyable.
In that regard, it seems that the more simple the game, the easier it is to say it's perfect.

For instance, some say Tetris and for what it is, Tetris is perfect. The music is catchy, the graphics interesting enough for a game where you drop blocks on each other, gameplay is simply yet increasingly difficult. On the other hand, I see some say Persona 4, which to me would be hard to say is perfect because it doesn't promise anything specific, just an RPG (jRPG?) set in Persona world with whatever battle system it has, music it has, storyline it has. (I've never played, by the way).

So it's difficult for me to say a game like... oh I don't know... Zelda is completely perfect since it's so complex.
On the other hand, I can say Katamari is definitely perfect. It's game where you roll up stuff on a ball. Music is definitely interesting, graphics are fun, levels aren't repetitive!

Zhu Zhu Pets 2. I love all the action.

The World Ends With You

 

[Guild McCommunist]

So it's difficult for me to say a game like... oh I don't know... Zelda is completely perfect since it's so complex.

It's not really complex, just (generally) well designed. Combat is simplistic, storyline is simplistic, characters are simplistic, and art style is also simplistic. Most of the puzzles are usually just taking an item you've gained recently and using it on this or that, just in different ways. It's well designed but certainly not complex.

The World Ends With You

Okay, I'm gonna tackle this. I don't like TWEWY and that's no secret. I'll leave all my story and art criticisms aside as that's a whole "different strokes, different folks" type of thing, but I certainly wouldn't classify the gameplay as perfect. I found it cluttered and more annoying than "fun" or "exciting". I do really hate the art style and story but leaving those aside, the gameplay still isn't satisfactory and certainly not perfect.

Grandia II (Dreamcast)
Shenmue (Dreamcast)
Jet Grind Radio (Dreamcast)
Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver (Dreamcast)
Conker's Bad Fur Day (N64)

Never found anything to complain about for these games. Even though I'm legitimately stuck on Grandia because my characters are too weak and I can't go back far enough to level up, I have fun just by looking at the screen. I'm WAY too patient! lol

 

[cosmiccow]

Half-Life 2
Donkey Kong Country Wii
Skyrim

No games are perfect at all. All games are pros and cons. You silly.

 

[Redhorse]

let me start out by saying ..

you are either part of the solution or the problem.​

How many more people are NOT going to read...​

...games 'YOU THINK' are perfect..​

Here's my contribution to the solution...


To me perfect games are ones I wouldn't change, games that I really like just the
way they are (but who could not use more episodes... more of the
same)

1) Advance Wars Days of Ruin/Dual Strike DS
2) Fire EMblem (Sacred Stones) GBA
3) Civilization Revolution DS
4) Age of Empires DS (Mythology was close 2nd) DS
5) Original Golden Sun (GBA)
6) GTA Chinatown wars DS
7) Chronotrigger DS
(there were many more ds games but to spare all the wall-o-text....

On PC it would be Civilization 3 & Roller Coaster tycoon 1.

 

[astrangeone]

- Earthbound (SNES)
- Final Fantasy Mystic Quest (SNES) - yes, I know, it's weird, and it's slow, but it's good....
- Tetris (GB)
- Shinobi (Game Gear) - which I remember beating, but I honestly don't remember. It was a borrowed game from a friend, and I took it to bed and beat it in the week we temporarily traded.
- Killer Instinct (Arcade)
- Gundam Battle Royal (PSP)

Yes, I'm a nerd for older games. And Earthbound is a gem in a sea of trite SNES games.

 

[Fishaman P]

Hmmmm...

1) Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64/GC/VC, not that 3DS trash)
2) Retro Game Challenge (NDS)
3) Pokemon Emerald (GBA)

1) Zelda: Ocarina of Time (N64/GC/VC, not that 3DS trash)

3DS trash? What? It's an improvement in every way.

Yeah, but see, we didn't find it cluttered and annoying, unsatisfactory or imperfect. That's the whole point of the thread -_-
The only thing that made no sense was the pin inventory, which desperately needed a "sell all but one of each kind" button, but I mean, that's a minor gripe among 1,000,000 good points. Everything else would have been addressed in the inevitable sequel had A) the game made money, and B) SE not been so eager to crap out more lousy Kingdom Hearts spinoffs. But even then it would have been like the jump from Mass Effect 1 -> 2, cleaner inventory and easier interface (not that I had trouble with the interface, but you know... all the people with mangled hands trying to play these games :\ )

The World Ends With You 2 3DS probably.

He's been doing that for years, it's because TWEWY was originally planned as a trilogy, but development on the second game was cancelled once 123/586 Garbage took priority. But sure, I'll keep my fingers crossed for TGS just like I do every year, along with River City Ransom 2, Rival Schools 3, etc.

 

[Guild McCommunist]

Bastion is just about perfect. Can't really think of any flaws in the game.

Rayman Origins is also basically perfect.
