Yeah pacman and pong were seminal but so was elite on the BBC, and Populous which I think was on the spectrum. Also unreal tournament, silent hill, vice city, homeworld, doom 2016, beam ng, I enjoyed em all but I can't decide. Ppl here have done much more gaming than me, I'm wondering what you all think is the best game ever. Age, platform, genre, bla bla - what's best ever?

Has to be Outer Wilds for me. I can't think of any other game that would have left such an impact on me, in such a short amount of time.

I heard how great the Outer Wilds was, so when I saw The Outer Worlds on sale I thought "oh hey sure I'll buy that for $15" and I was EXTREMELY confused at why people had said it was the best game you could only play once, because that game wasn't even fun the first time. I later realized my mistake and got the real deal and oh my god I wish I could forget that game and play it again.
