I feel like most people who have been playing video games since childhood have one or more of a select few games that they go back and replay every few years.

For me I’ve been replaying Pokémon Emerald Version recently. Nothing like nostalgia and being able to better enjoy aspects of a game you didn’t understand as a kid. ☺️

Knights of the Old Republic II. Every time I play through it, I always run into little things that I've never found before, and it's always fun tinkering with different character builds. It's possible to make a "gun jedi" that specializes in blasters, and it actually kicks ass.

Even though the ending was rushed, and KOTOR 1 was more polished, I've always found 2's story, themes, and characters to be deeply interesting and engaging.

Any of the Dark Souls games. I frequently revisit them. I also seem to go back to Roller Coaster Tycoon and the Team Silent Silent Hill games.

Pokemon Emerald is a great choice. I've done it a couple of times as well.

Another of mine is Super Mario Sunshine. Loooove that game.

Also shout-out to Dark Souls Remastered. Always nice to go back to that.

For a old game fallout new Vegas but right now darkest dungeon it's a good way to chill out if I'm not in mood for anything big

Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 2 for PS1. I still love chasing high scores in the Hangar.

Here's a vid of the best run I've recorded at ~3.1 million. Not my best run (highest ever was 4.1 million) but this is the best on I have on capture.

Also, for some reason I really like Mighty Morphin Power Rangers for the SNES. I've played it so much I can beat the whole game in just over 30 mins on a single life.

Spyro Trilogy, since the remaster came out I think I've gone back and 100% all three games twice. Spyro was the first game I got on PS1 and the nostalgia combined with better graphics is amazing

Some of my best gaming memories are playing Spyro 3 with family when I was just a kid. The game is so easy to pickup and play, no matter how many times you've done it.

The music, the levels, playable characters it hit a home run in all of them.

This! Plus for me Super Mario64 and Crash Bandicoot 3.

My mind was blown the first my cousin brought over his N64, we had not played anything but NES / SNES. Mario 64 was the only game he had and it felt like it came out of this world.
