Sight and Sound: Games are the art superior

I've been seeing this list format so I wanted to join the party, inspired mostly by Dyoxsito list, un capo.

These are what I consider to be the 10 games that have proven to be influential, important and with a lot of love in the gaming industry

As I play more titles I will add to this list.

Hotline Miami
Hotline Miami
A psychological thriller that deconstructs the violence in the videogame, mocking the player, that revived the 80's aesthetic with a great soundtrack and that created its own subgenre, masterpiece.
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest
The platform genre is one of my favorites, better said it is my favorite genre of video games, DKC 1 seems to me a great game, but this one surpasses it in absolutely everything, fun challenges, excellent atmosphere and my favorite soundtrack in the history of gaming.
Final Fantasy Tactics
Final Fantasy Tactics
Final Fantasy despite everything is a great saga with its ups and downs, obviously this one one of its highest, a philosophical and political story with a masterful gameplay, a memorable villain, unforgettable characters, this is a work of art
Mega Man Zero 3
Mega Man Zero 3
Megaman is my favorite franchise of fiction, Megaman Zero 3 is one of the reasons why I love this saga, one of the best games of the gba with a great atmosphere, great gameplay and memorable battles, Zero is a god.
Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony
Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony
Despite what they tell me and its questionable fandom, I am a fan of the saga and I get into the world of the VN, V3 is an insult to the toxic fandom of the saga and reflects on the trajectory of the entire saga to this moment, one of the best cast I've seen in fiction, certainly a postmodern work.
Terranigma
Terranigma
A hidden gem of the snes that deals with very complex issues such as religion, the role of humanity, the true meaning of light and darkness, no doubt this is one of the games of why the video game is art
Hollow Knight
Hollow Knight
Metroid created the genre, Castlevania mastered it, Hollow Knight perfected it.
Excellent art, great combat, amazing music, this game is a marvel wherever you look at it
Xenogears
Xenogears
I don't care what they say about disc 2, this game is a masterpiece, a work that doesn't mind getting into sensitive issues such as religion, sex, mental disorders, etc, a wonder that I still enjoy despite its mistakes
The Stanley Parable
The Stanley Parable
A meta-narrative against the developer and the player, talking about how much freedom we have in the video game and how developers treat us like rats following orders, a brilliant story.
Half-Life 2
Half-Life 2
Half Life is a very important game, but its sequel surpasses it in absolutely everything, a game too immersive and that to this day it still looks very good and better than several current games, peak valve
