Half-Life 1 or 2?
Half Life 2 by a mile. That’s one of the lowest hanging fruit on the tree. HL1 isn’t very good.
HL1 is incredible. You're out of your mind.

I actually bought a PS1 and this game. I just need a TV that won't stretch it to shit. It looks ridiculous on the 72″.

Timesplitters 2
Most underrated game ever?

Certainly a contender.

Final Fantasy 7 is the best for me, and 8 is nipping at its heels.
7 has the best overall story and characters, while 8 has the best end game sequence and the card game. Triple Triad is a massive part of why 8 kicked ass, and why 9 was lacking. (9 had its own card game and it was shitty).

I disagree. I would say the biggest improvement from the first game to the second game in any franchise is without question Half Life. I still remember that I picked up HL2 for $4 on clearance at Circuit City. It’s the best dollar for dollar game that I ever bought.

I feel like 7 really drops once you leave Midgar. The story gets convoluted and none of the new characters you meet are all that interesting except maybe Vincent.
6 has the best music and the best villain of the entire series.

FF8 was my favorite, I can't recommend the remake of 7 enough either.

Do I have to play Bioshock 2 before playing Bioshock Infinite?

I tried playing BS2 a few times but never got past the first few stages, thinking about jumping into BSI soon instead of trying again.

I have SimCity 2000 on my laptop, fucking awesome game. I think I have a port of it for PS1 laying around somewhere too.
