I feel like playing some older games with decent stories.. List some of your favorite games of all time that you feel are must play.. Must be after 1995 - nothing before 1995 though... (ps1 released in 95, saturn in 95, n64 released in 96 so that is my minimum)
The few on my mind right now are.. Skies of Arcadia, replaying FF7, FF8, Grandia 3, vagrant story, Kingdom hearts (I never beat it!!!), different zeldas... what else is must play?? I have working emulators for ps1, ps2 (pcsx2), n64 and a fully functional dreamcast + xbox360.
Here's some of my favorites in no particular order.. FF7, 9, 10, 12 (I don't remember beating 6 or 8 - are they worth it?) --- not going to play 1-5 Mass Effect Shenmue MGS series Shadow of the Colossus Max Payne Halflife Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic Assassin's Creed Deus Ex Sonic Adventures
hmm, so many other games but can't remember..

Second this. Also get Symphony of the Night. It has some of the best music and atmosphere in any video game. If you can get a snes emulator, get Super Metroid. Demon's Crest too. And come on, Final Fantasy 5 is up there with FF6. Give it a try. Dragon Quest 8 too if you're planning on playing ps2 games.

If you have a 360 and enjoy JRPGs you really owe it to yourself to check out Lost Odyssey. Those Thousand years of dreams.

Terrinigma released in 95, though it is a snes game. Really good though, never got a North American release so a lot of people here aren't that familiar with it.

Mass Effect series, Portal, older Mario games, Doom, Pacman, KOTOR, Mario Kart, GTA San Andreas, Dark Souls, Half Life 2, Red Dead Redemption, Chrono Trigger, Shadow of the Colossus, Oregon Trail, Tetris, Ocarina of Time and Majora's Mask, Pokemon games, Minecraft, Smash Bros, Grim Fandango, Animal Crossing, TF2, Civ, Baldur's Gate, RollerCoaster Tycoon, a Football Manager game, Binding of Isaac, Sims, Garry's Mod, Bioshock series, FF Tactics
Sure I'm forgetting some. I don't even like some of those games but you gotta at least put a little time in each imo. So much of it defines or perfects what games were built upon or still are today.
I think Mass Effect 2, RDR, and Smash are my three favorite games I've played.

That would exclude Doom off the list sadly...
Starcraft: Brood War Mario Kart 64 (doesn't have a decent story though) Super Mario 64 Super Smash Bros (doesn't have a decent story though) Goldeneye Starfox 64

Good choices all. I might just go with a RPG game like chrono trigger or ff6.. I know I started chrono trigger years ago but no idea where I left off I have started so many games over the years but never beat many of them for whatever reason. i.e. I started ff7 about 3 times, never beat it lol

Why nothing before 95? I like some games older than that. Gunfight is one of my favourites on my arcade cab. Wonderboy too. And tapper, dk, space invaders, galaga etc all have to be played at some point in your life. Also add resident evil 2 and silent hill Mostly because SNES/NES graphics are a turn-off to me. I prefer somewhat playable graphics like ps1 or n64. May be just me being picky though heh I did beat Bahamut Lagoon and other older games in past but kinda losing patience for the really old stuff.
