Title says it all, what games do you wish other EoFFers would play so they can discover how awesome they are.

True beauty exists in things that last only for a moment.
Current Mood: And it's been a long December and there's reason to believe. Maybe this year will be better than the last. I can't remember all the times I tried to tell myself. To hold on to these moments as they pass...

...guys every single one of my posts in this forum is basically the same, I should really just stop replying xD
have you guys heard of this game series named final fantasy? you guys should totally play those games
also portal
Every non-spinoff Final Fantasy game that you haven't played yet. Seriously folks, you can't discuss a game you haven't played! That and FFT.
Borderlands - a FPS for people who like RPGs. I don't like FPS games and I enjoyed it a lot.
Outland - Amazing and new platformer. Shows how much the genre could have progressed with modern game design.

Any one of you who enjoys an SRPG needs Devil Survivor. It's an amazing story, a deep combat system, huge custamibilty, great artwork, and damned challenging.
NeoCracker winning this thread so far, for recommending something I hadn't heard of before.
Startropics for NES is brilliant. It's sequel (Zoda's Revenge) is also brilliant. You should totally legally hunt down copies and not just find ROMs and play them because it's free and easy... I've also been playing the crap out of Costume Quest and Brutal Legend, and diving into CaveStory on occasion, all recommended.
bleh overdone shoutout to Fallout because everybody already knows it's both awesome and glitchtastic.
Oh, and all fighting games in the last couple years. Seriously, I know a lot of people who have refused to play fighting games since the sega/SNES days, but the retro-comeback has been obscene. Street Fighter IV in any form, the Mortal Kombat reboot, and as of today I can vouch for the gameplay Street Fighter x Tekken. Virtua Fighter 5 as well, but then again Virtua Fighter has always been awesome. They're simple again, they're fun again, so go play some of them.
"Blades of Steel" for the NES (also available for download on the Wii Virtual Console)
Simply one of my favourite two-player games of all time. It's an early ice hockey sim with fantastic mechanics. It has a very unique method of shooting which rewards great timing and sometimes just a little bit of luck!
The fighting system is excellent as well with full screen square-ups mid game. It's fun as well because whoever loses the fight... loses that player for two minutes, as opposed to both players leaving the ice.
The one-player game is great but it really comes into it's own when a friend joins the fun. My best friend and me have literally spent about 5 hours playing non-stop games on this. You won't be dissappointed. Especially when it's only 500 points which equates to what? 5 dollars or £3.50 in the UK.
Bargain.
Once patch 1.21, comes out, I want us all to play FFXIV. But we'd have to get enough people to start up at the same time to make it really worthwhile. Those that have already done a round of the game already can focus on making gear for the newer members and helping them level and whatnot. =] But that's all optimism, I can't see many people jumping in at the moment. Still, it would be awesome if we had enough interest! The game is getting very good now and I would say after patch 1.21 it will finally be at the stage that it's worth paying to play.
Beyond that, well, let's see. Dreamfall and The Longest Journey would be good, if only to further increase pressure on the developers to finally get Dreamfall Chapters out.
It would be neat if we could find some kind of decent, low spec + high gameplay value MMORPG that we could all play. Like, dozens of us, rather than about ten at most. If we all went in at once, it would be awesome. Even a 2D one would be fine so long as the gameplay value was high and there were enough people interested in it.
EDIT: Also, if we're gonna go old-school, Excelsior is worth playing.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Threads of Fate!
But also Persona 3 and 4.

Fragile Dreams: Farewell Memories of the Moon. I love this game.
Etrian Odyssey is a pretty fun game where you draw your own maps to the areas that you're in
I've actually played left 4 dead (2) with 3 EoFFers - Dakdak, Stu, and Neotifa.
Neotifa doesn't play no more and I just troll all day so I have to turn that mentality off to play with stu / dak (actually I lie; I don't)
we need an eoff l4d guild!
