Essential Gaming Collection [REVISED]
Mike Arrani @prometheanbound
90 个游戏
So, this used to be a top-100 list I first created on GiantBomb in -I wanna say- 2014. At the time compiled from memory and including games I most fondly remembered.
At some point after 2015 I decided to keep it only for the games released before or in 2015, as from that year onwards I was no longer able to be an active gamer that followed and played new titles as they came out. Though I turned 21 that year, it really feels to me like the year that separated my childhood gaming from my adulthood gaming. I thought I couldn't really perceive newer games as innocently as I did the older ones.
However, after revisiting some of the old titles and catching up with some of the new ones, I think I realized that I can't really see the old titles in that innocent way anymore either. A lot of games that I have a strong nostalgia for, I just don't enjoy anymore, no matter how much I would want to. And some games I've never played before, actually have the same kind of nostalgic grip on me as those old titles.
So I decided to remove the year restriction on it. And also, since the list has thinned since, I've decided not to enforce an arbitrary "top-X" label on it. Instead this'll be a single continuously fluctuating list. Games will appear and disappear as I evaluate/re-evaluate them.
The title of the list was ripped off from inspired by TwinPerfect's "Essential Viewing Collection" which just sounds much classier and more accurate to what it actually represents than any kind of "top."
DISCLAIMERS:
This list includes only the games I rated 5/5. Which means there might be games out there that I have strong feelings towards but can't get over some of the flaws of. Then again lately I've been doing a lot of thinking in regards to whether I need to start reevaluating games by a less objective metric and maybe increase some ratings on the basis of whether I think they should be on this list.
Since this is an old list, some of these games I need to replay and their position and/or status might change.
Some of these games I've only played for a short period of time and thought they were incredible, but still haven't found the time to revisit and try to beat. So, again, their position and/or status might change.
Some of the entries include more than one game. This usually means that the sequel or the expansion is not different enough from the original game to give it a separate entry. Usually expansion packs are bundled with the original game.
Some entries here are kinda placeholders. Their additions are based on the knowledge I posses about them and the reputation of their respective series'. Currently there are two of them there, but this might change.
The overall ranking is very fluid. I'm still really not sure which titles to put above which. Generally, the further away from the top it goes, the less sure I am.
蜘蛛侠:破碎维度 [游戏] Bangumi
故事围绕名为"秩序与混沌碑"的神器展开。当神奇蜘蛛侠与神秘客的战斗导致石碑破碎时,漫威多元宇宙的多个现实维度出现紊乱。蜘蛛夫人召集神奇蜘蛛侠与三位平行宇宙的蜘蛛侠——暗影蜘蛛侠、未来蜘蛛侠和终极蜘蛛侠,共同从各自维度的反派手中夺回碎片以恢复平衡。游戏在四位蜘蛛侠之间切换,虽然操作方式相似,但各自呈现独特的玩法风格与能力。例如暗影蜘蛛侠关卡侧重潜行,而终极蜘蛛侠关卡则强调大规模战斗。
本作是Beenox从动视获得授权后开发的首部蜘蛛侠游戏,取代了前开发商Treyarch。媒体评价总体积极,赞扬了融合四个漫威宇宙的创意,并肯定配音、战斗系统、表现力、幽默感与配乐。批评主要集中在剧情简单化、反派选择、过场动画设计以及技术缺陷上。
续作《蜘蛛侠:时间边缘》于2011年10月发售,仅保留神奇蜘蛛侠与未来蜘蛛侠。2014年动视与漫威的版权协议到期后,本作及续作从PlayStation Network和Xbox Live商店下架。2015年10月24日通过Steam重新上架,2017年4月1日再度下架。
剧本作者之一马克·霍夫迈尔曾参与制作广受好评的福克斯儿童频道动画《蜘蛛侠:动画系列》,该剧的多蜘蛛侠设定与秩序混沌碑概念对游戏产生影响。另一位编剧丹·斯洛特后续参与2014年漫画大事件"蜘蛛宇宙"创作,该故事既受游戏启发,又反过来影响了动画电影《蜘蛛侠:平行宇宙》系列。
动视也于该作发售首日推出了由Griptonite Games开发的同名NDS游戏,玩法则完全不同——NDS版游戏是一款横向卷轴格斗游戏,各蜘蛛侠版本间的玩法差异极小。该版本删减了终极蜘蛛侠角色,反派阵容也大幅缩减:神奇蜘蛛侠章节仅保留电光人与修补匠,暗影蜘蛛侠章节保留回旋镖与卡吕普索,未来蜘蛛侠章节保留秃鹫与银鬃。并非所有技能在开局即可使用,部分需随游戏进程解锁。虽然大部分操作依靠方向键与按键完成,但触摸屏用于关卡间的迷你游戏,帮助蜘蛛侠操控石碑进行维度穿越。
Batman: Arkham Asylum - Game of the Year Edition [游戏] IGDB
Set in a dark, immersive version of Gotham, the story explores Batman’s psychological battle with his foes, including Harley Quinn, Bane, and Scarecrow. The game received critical acclaim for its gameplay, atmosphere, and storytelling, becoming a defining title in superhero video games.
The Game of the Year Edition features 4 DLC Challenge Maps, and a full copy of Batman: Arkham Asylum. It also featured the ability for the game to be played in 3D with the use of 3D pink and green lensed glasses.
After the Joker assaults Gotham City Hall, he is caught by Batman and taken to Arkham Asylum, which temporarily houses many members of the Joker's gang, who were transferred after a fire at Blackgate Prison. Believing the Joker allowed himself to be captured, Batman accompanies him into the asylum. The Joker's plan is revealed as Harley Quinn takes control of the security and the Joker escapes into the facility, aided by a corrupt guard who kidnaps Commissioner Gordon. The Joker threatens to detonate bombs hidden around Gotham City if anyone tries to enter Arkham, forcing Batman to work alone. Tracking Quinn to the medical facility to rescue Gordon, Batman is exposed to the Scarecrow's fear toxin and hallucinates, seeing Gordon's death and the corpses of his parents talking to him. After fighting off Scarecrow, Batman finds and subdues Quinn before rescuing Gordon. The Joker then directs Batman to the captured Bane, who has been experimented on by asylum doctor Penelope Young. The Joker frees Bane and Batman is forced to fight him, during which Quinn escapes. Afterward, he goes to a secret Batcave installation he had hidden on the island, where Batman restocks his gadgets.
There, Batman learns that the Joker returned to the asylum to gain access to Young, who has been developing Titan—a more powerful version of the Venom drug that gives Bane his strength—intending to use it to help patients survive more strenuous therapies. Young learned that the Joker had been funding her research to create an army of superhuman henchmen; her refusal to hand over the formula precipitated Joker's return to the Asylum. While searching for Young, Batman is again attacked by Scarecrow and the fear toxin, and hallucinates the night of his parents' deaths. After he recovers, Batman destroys Young's Titan formula and rescues Young from Victor Zsasz. An explosion kills Young and the Joker obtains the completed batches of Titan.
At the Penitentiary, Quinn releases Poison Ivy from her cell before being imprisoned by Batman. Quinn accidentally reveals that Joker has a Titan production facility in the Arkham botanical gardens. Batman travels there and learns that Titan is created by genetically modified plants. He enlists Ivy's help to create an antidote and learns that it can only be made from spores found exclusively in Killer Croc's lair in a sewer. En route to Croc, Batman is again attacked by Scarecrow and overcomes several doses of fear toxin. Meanwhile, Joker injects Ivy with Titan, enhancing her powers. Ivy begins ravaging Arkham Island with giant mutant plants. Pursued by Batman into Croc's lair, Scarecrow is attacked by Croc and dragged underwater. Batman recovers the necessary spores and subdues Croc before returning to the Batcave, but can only synthesize one dose of the antidote before Ivy's plants breach the cave and destroy his equipment.
Batman returns to the botanical gardens and defeats Ivy, halting the rampaging plants. The Joker announces that the preparations for his party are finally complete and Batman travels to the asylum's visitor center where the Joker's applauding henchmen welcome him. The Joker reveals he has recaptured Gordon and tries to shoot him with a Titan-filled dart; Batman leaps to Gordon's defense and is shot instead. Batman attempts to resist the change, and an upset Joker takes an overdose of Titan, mutating into a massive monster. In a makeshift arena on the building's roof, the Joker challenges Batman to a fight as Titan-induced monsters in front of news helicopters. Batman refuses to transform, uses the antidote on himself, and defeats the Titan-affected Joker and his henchmen, knocking his nemesis unconscious with an explosive gel-enhanced punch. In the aftermath, those affected by Titan begin to revert to normal, including the Joker—who is restrained and taken into custody as police officers retake the asylum. Batman overhears a call about a crime led by Two-Face in progress and flies back to Gotham City in the Batwing. In a post-credits scene, a crate of Titan formula is shown floating in the ocean near the asylum when a hand surfaces and grabs it.

Prologue
New Arkham City inmate and rising warlord, Two-Face devises a plan to publicly execute fellow prisoner Catwoman after she tries to steal back some of her ill-gotten gains from his hideout. Meanwhile, Gotham City itself has degenerated into a police state managed by Mayor Sharp, where citizens with the slightest trace of a criminal record find themselves shipped to the prison district. Those who dare to challenge Sharp's policies are the target of arranged disappearances, becoming political prisoners trapped behind Arkham's walls. Among these is Bruce Wayne, who holds a rally attacking the proposal of turning half his city into a walled-off reserve for criminally inclined persons. Segregated from society, he argues, they have become responsible for their own survival in an anarchic urban hell which is characterized by bloody gang wars.
Welcome to Arkham City
Wayne, as the latest focus of Sharp's vendetta, is kidnapped by TYGER Security operatives working for Hugo Strange, who is privy to his dual identity as Batman. Strange intends to unveil new plans for Arkham City before the night is up, an operation codenamed Protocol 10, which will establish himself as supreme ruler of Gotham. Now an inmate, the Dark Knight manages to have Alfred Pennyworth deliver his crimefighting equipment to him directly via an airdrop, and he prepares to save Catwoman from Two-Face for the sake of their past relationship while uncovering the true nature of Protocol 10.

Prologue
Nine months after the |Joker's death, crime rates in Gotham City have dramatically declined, but Batman anticipates a new threat and maintains a vigil over the city. Before his death, the Joker sent his mutated blood to Gotham's hospitals, and several patients were infected. While most were cured, the patients who were not treated are starting to look and act like the Joker. Batman researches a cure for the mutations, and orders Robin to watch over the infected.
The Arkham Knight
On Halloween night, Scarecrow unleashes his newest strain of Fear Gas in a diner, and threatens to release it throughout Gotham. Six million civilians are evacuated, but the city's criminals and supervillains stay behind, leaving Commissioner James Gordon and the Gotham City Police Department outnumbered. Batman investigates Scarecrow's presence, and searches for him in a rooftop safehouse, but instead finds and saves Poison Ivy, who was being held captive by Scarecrow's henchmen. In a makeshift Batcave in Gotham's Clock Tower, Barbara Gordon is collecting information on Scarecrow's new toxin, and traces its production to Ace Chemicals. Batman goes to investigate, but is confronted by the mysterious "Arkham Knight" and his militia, which has a massive army of unmaned tanks. Batman fights his way through the militia, learning from workers that Scarecrow is planning to produce a chemical explosion so large that it will cover the entire eastern seaboard in fear toxin. Batman reaches Scarecrow, who reveals to him that Barbara has been abducted by the Arkhan Knight before escaping. While reducing the blast radius, Batman is exposed to the fear toxin, which reacts with his own mutated blood to cause hallucinations of the Joker. Escaping from the exploding Ace Chemicals, Batman is forced to tell Gordon about his daughter's involvement in his crime-fighting, and the outraged Gordon swears that he will find Barbara without Batman's help.
Scarecrow's Plans
Batman tracks the Arkham Knight to an underground tunnel network, hoping to learn Barbara's whereabouts from him, but instead gets ambushed by him. Batman then gives chase to the escaping convoy, only to learn that the driver is a decoy, using a voice synthesizer that makes him sound like the Arkham Knight. Batman interrogates the driver and learns that they are heading to the North Refrigeration. He and Nightwing interrogate the Penguin, who tells them that the Knight and Scarecrow are meeting with a businessman named Simon Stagg, who runs a pharmaceutical company. After boarding Stagg's airship, Batman discovers that Scarecrow paid Stagg to create a device known as the "Cloudburst", but Stagg tried to double-cross them and has been doused with fear toxin as punishment. After reaching Scarecrow and interrogating Stagg, Batman is again exposed to the toxin, which triggers a powerful hallucinogenic response. Scarecrow escapes with the Cloudburst. Batman receives a message from Scarecrow revealing that Barbara is in the same safehouse where Ivy was held, but before Batman can save her, Barbara is doused with fear toxin and shoots herself in the head. Batman and Alfred Pennyworth are devastated, but Alfred convinces Batman to not lose hope, for Barbara's sake. Alfred explains to Batman that the Cloudburst is a dispersal device designed to flood all of Gotham with the fear toxin. To counteract this effect, Batman enlists the help of Ivy, who takes control of a large tree which develops giant flowers capable of neutralizing the toxin.

星球大战:前线2 [游戏] 豆瓣
游戏以主观点射击为主,兼有战略、空战等其他模式,大量的电影原声配乐极好地再现了原作的气氛。游戏最多支持4人联机,多人模式下,玩家们不但可以在战火中相互协力,还可以各投一方分庭对抗。游戏惟一的不足就是键位设定过于与众不同,一般玩家需要花一段时间才能适应。
寂静岭2 [游戏] 豆瓣
寂静岭 [游戏] 豆瓣
本游戏主要讲述了作家哈利·梅森,为了寻找他失踪的养女,在寂静岭小镇中四处探索的故事。其中主角被卷入一个能够唤醒神灵的邪教仪式,同时哈利也终于知道了女儿的真实身份。视乎玩家的选择,游戏共有五个结局,包括一个有恶搞趣味的结局。
本游戏销售成功且受到高度评价,评论者普遍认为本游戏是恐怖游戏中的代表作品,并且指出之所以游戏的风格不像B级片中的风格,是因为游戏营造了一种发自内心的恐怖气氛。
寂静岭3 [游戏] 豆瓣
音乐和音效很好的渲染出了游戏恐怖的气氛。时不时有种持续的背景噪音让人感到很压抑。而怪物出现的时候,声音总会吓人一大跳。游戏CG里面的歌也很好听,本游戏音效音乐是由Kenji Kawei和Hidenori Onishi制作,保持KONAMI一向的很高的音乐音效水准。
游戏的主角由2代的男性换成一位柔软的PLMMHeather会让玩家更加担心,也让大家会有种怜香惜玉的感觉。也由于主角是位女性,也不能使用什么重武器,不象2代主角需要更多的去逃避。游戏的场景比较多,有5个大场景,让人觉得不会单调,而各个场景BOSS设定也很有特色,有着不同的攻击方式,需要玩家用不同的策略去击败BOSS。ACT游戏的解迷也是一个重头戏,本游戏的迷题都不怎么困难,如旋转木马的迷题,只要玩家细心点,耐心点注意点各个道具的作用就不难过去。
剧情方面游戏的各个部分有及时生成的动画来交代情节,使故事很完整。3代剧情比2代稍弱,2代里有很多情节的伏笔3,环环相扣,有些悬念,而3代就比较象是比较单纯的复仇。
PC版《寂静岭3》是以PS2版本为基础进行移植,游戏内容完全相同,不过因为玩家可以选择较高档的3D显示卡搭配,所以表现出来的画面表现更胜PS2版一筹,不管是高达1024X768的高解析画面、更逼真的材质贴图、更细腻的光影表现、雾化效果等,呈现出来的恐怖质感让人不寒而栗。
寂静岭4:闭室 [游戏] 豆瓣
与一代和三代围绕宗教来营造氛围和二代以开放型的架构取胜有所不同,《寂静岭4:密室》在动作和战斗方面的强化是非常明显的(和《生化危机》的发展趋势有些雷同)。由于主角的武器主要以近身的冷兵器居多,枪械的子弹数量极为有限,而回复型的道具也较缺,敌人的攻击力也变得极为难缠,使得整个游戏在战斗方面的难度有了不少的提升。因为吓唬玩家的伎俩已经用得差不多了,与其刻意标新立异地去冒险,倒不如在原来的基础上增加某方面的占有比例,这样的做法是完全可以理解的。与艾琳携手冒险时,在保护好她的同时,只要合理“利用”,“护花对象”极有可能成为“护草使者”。
(注:侵食度指的是指自己房间的除灵率,80%以上2种结局,80%以下2种结局。救助女主角成功关键是在最后BOSS战时要快,后期女主角的受伤程度对这个也有影响。)
