I believe The Beatles: Rock Band came the closest to being perfect. Eveything about that game was just beautifully done and the only things missing was Pro Drums, an option for Keys, and a few more Beatle songs (Hey Jude, Strawberry Fields Forever, Yesterday etc. etc.)
Can we go really old with these?
Because Zelda Link to the Past is a perfect game.
I know how ubiquitous it is, but I still replay it on a regular basis. Its perfectly designed, balanced, simple… Im not saying its superior to modern games or something, I just think its pretty flawless. That is all.
It’s Ocarina of Time for me. It’s just about as perfect as it can get.
It blends the simplicity of a platformer with the complexity of an open world RPG with just the right amount of each.
1000% agree. Im a huge fan of all things Legend of Zelda and this one still stands as a masterpiece to me as well.
@storksforlegs My fave Zelda for sure.
I remember finally getting the skips down in the dark world to keep the bunny form. So much fun!
Have you ever looked into any randomizers for ALTTP? They’ll give you a whole new experience in playing the game.
With Archipelago, you can even play with other people playing other randomized games. A Hollow Knight player might need you to find their mantis claw so they can get to the boss that has your hookshot and so on.
ALttP is so good, so polished so it’s a pleasure to play.
Also did the randomizer. It’s played with the Japanese v1.0, so it includes a bunch of fun minor glitches like being able to hook shot through rocks or swim before you get flippers to sequence break
