This thread has convinced me to play Outer Wilds.
My picks are:
- Game: Portal 2.
- Book: The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
- TV show: Bojack Horseman.
- Movie: The Shawshank Redemption.
Game:
GoldenEye 007, but I want it to be in 1997 playing on the 27" CRT TV in the basement with my brother. Technically, it was my N64, so I always got to use the gold controller that it came with. We sat on the carpet within feet of the giant wooden TV cabinet, because the cords weren’t very long. My dad was a carpenter and only recently refinished the basement with tongue and groove cedar. I still remember the smell of the wood and the sound of the furnace clicking on down there. He even cut a crescent moon into the door as if it were an outhouse.
We liked to play Golden Gun in the temple. We even made up our own games within the game, like hide and seek. Back then he was my best friend. He made some life choices that were different from mine. We were never as close as when we played that game. We’re not in a bad spot or anything, but those days now just memories.
If I were your brother I would love to read this comment

With you on this one! The Sonic Adventure games are what come to mind when I think of 3D Sonic. The gameplay of the boost games doesn’t appeal to me nearly as much as the physics based movement of the Adventure games!

The first BioShock game. I don’t know how I managed to go so long without it being spoiled for me, but man, I’m glad it wasn’t.
The whole experience of starting up my new (used) N64 for the first time on my blurry old CRT TV and see that huge 3D Mario face pop up that I could squeeze and pull. This was a truly magical console for me.
- Game: Skyrim
- TV show: Game of Thrones
- Book: The Lord of the Rings
- Movie: The Lord of the Rings
Metal Gear Solid 3.
I played it overnight, I was alone, and it thunderstormed that night around the time I reached The Sorrow. I couldnt stop. It was so good and I was into it. Nothing else has been more memorable.
Game: Wolfenstein the online part. Cant remember what title, but it was on pc in the 2000s oh it was Amazing Book: Goosebump TV Show: Werner Movie: The perfect storm
Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory
So much fun
At this point, there are definitely plenty, but I’d personally say my top picks are definitely (in no particular order):
• Brok the Investigator
• Franklin (yes I’m a child at heart sometimes)
• New Vegas and the DLCs
• Borderlands (on xbox360 w/ all 4 DLCs, have been playing on and off for over a decade and still have way too much stuff left)
• An American Tail (definitely in my top 3, if not my absolute favorite 3D animated film ever)
Game is such an unbelievable slam dunk for me. Outer Wilds.
But if I could forget two, it’d be Outer Wilds twice because it’s an incredible story
