Essential Single Player Games

If, after completing a game, I can say to myself without question that it is a game I could have fun playing again and again as I grow older, I will put it on this list.

Nostalgia has no place here.

Showing 1-9 of 9 items

1. Grim Fandango

2. Portal

3. Super Mario World

4. Super Mario All-Stars

5. Snatcher

6. Donkey Kong Country

7. Tetris

8. Cave Story

9. Mega Man 2

Probably my favorite game on the NES. I love the music, the graphics, the variety of stages, and the 'normal' difficulty suits me fine.
