[General Discussion] Games you consider "Perfect"?

I've turned pretty cynical about games in general so picking the perfect game will be tough, I'm sure I can think of more but the main one that springs to mind for me right now that hasn't been said already has to be sonic 3 and knuckles one of the 2D greats.

Sure the 2 player modes pretty shit in comparison but that seems to be a tradition with most sonic games, It's difficult to define what it is exactly about it, I don't think I've played any other game with a plot that actually has not a single line of dialogue between characters, if you ignore the backstory you'd read in the manuel or something but tbh who reads the manuels?

Edit: Shadow of Colosus and Ico were unique experiences too I'd choose over generic FPS and RPG games any day

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Damn how could I forget that game! You can always tell the mark of a good game when it makes the other game console companies jealose, hell you can get it on the wii now so enough said. You also reminded me of another great game series which has to be Streets of Rage (mainly part 2) it's one of the most frantic 2D fighting game series out there, long as you crank up the difficutly that is otherwise you won't know what I'm talking about

Perfect is an overused word these days in truth it's kinda like beauty is in the eye of the beholder, still the guy said games you consider to be perfect so there's no need to read that far into it

There's nowhere I can't reach.
