Probably controversial but half life 2 for me. I got it very cheap on a sale after years of hearing how good it was. Just couldn’t get into it. Even worse, every time I felt nauseated after a couple of minutes.

I guess this is just an example of a “you had to be there” scenarios. I was there as a gamer at the time but had no funds to play all the games. I skipped on HL 2 and can’t get into it 20 years later.

Why skip far cry 1&2? 1 is a little dated yes but iconic in itself. The setting of far cry 2 is one of the most unique in gaming history and it brought some very interesting mechanics into gaming which were revolutionary for that time.

There might be a lot of nostalgia speaking here though. I had so much fun with both games!
