my only problem with Persona 5 Is #1 , the actual gameplay battles imo are nowhere as masterfully executed as the story ( this applies to the whole franchise ) , and #2 , the extremely repetitve and boring traversal of the long dungeons. The cinematics , characters , dialogue , and plot are easily a masterful 10 , but the actual Interactive gameplay leaves me wanting and knocks It out of an honest 10/10 for me , no matter how much slack I cut It mediocre gameplay Is a deal breaker. Persona 5 and Persona franchise's core battle mechanics/sytem In general just dosen't feel fun enough for a 10 imo. Basically I'd rather watch It cinematically as a movie more than I want to play It as a videogame , and that's a problem. I did enjoy Scrambles/Strikers battle system more for whatever that's worth. I hope they keep experimenting with battle systems.

Chrono Trigger is indeed a masterpiece; I'm not even a huge JRPG fan (though I've played my fair share of them) and I just think the game is amazing. It is very hard to criticize it - like, what could they have done better? I think it's an absolutely seminal and legendary game, a true masterpiece of the 16 bit era. The graphics were amazing, the design of all the characters was iconic and memorable (thanks, Akira Toriyama!), the design of the world, the story, the SOUNDTRACK is one of the greatest of ALL TIME, the style and gameplay of the game captures you right away, the scale is epic, and it doesn't drag out for too long. I think it's really the best classic RPG ever made.

If I can offer a contrary opinion for the sake of balance, it's a 6/10. Tiny world map, too short, repetitive and little depth to the combat or character building. Just so someone else like me, who's played a lot of RPGs, doesn't come along and be disappointed by this "greatest RPG ever". It's just not what I look for, though if you like it then cool, I thought it was OK, not terrible but not great, Dragon Quest and FF are much better JRPGs from that period. Though from a SNES technical standpoint it's excellent I'll admit.

It's the games that will be forever in my heart. I can replay them anytime. So many great memories. I even teared up and thought about deep meanings and other stuff from some of them.

Halo was inarguably a next gen leap in A.I. and general rendering from the Ps1 and N64, does that mean it's a masterpiece? No but it's clear you just have a personal dislike for the series, hurting your credibility. Metroid Prime is a masterpiece no doubt of that, it's gorgeous and runs at 60 but go jump on the Nintendo superfan train since you dislike PS and Xbox so much. The 6th gen was loaded with creativity, absolutely loaded with great games across all platforms.

Excellent video, love seeing older and modern games that are top notch.

The witcher 3 for me! I love everything fantasy and medieval. The beauty, characters, dark themes, exploration and a massive world to explore has given me more emotions than any other game!

Xenogears! I still listen to the soundtrack. My only wish for the game is that the 2nd disc content had been finished.

i love hearing your passion! Great video

For me Super Mario 64 is the most perfect game I have ever played. I was so in love when this was first released. When my son was three years old it was the first game to get him really into 3D gaming. And now in 2020 my daughter is 3 and she also loves running around in it. I wish Nintendo would remaster this in 4K from the ground up.

Metal Gear Solid 3 is probably the most perfect 10/10 masterpiece I've played

Final Fantasy Tactics. It was my favorite RPG of all time, overshadowed my FF7 because of the release date. It deserves justice!

Xenogears is probably my favorite game of all time, I find myself thinking about the big twists and turns that you go through in that story. I have always wondered what could have happened if they had the budget and support that Square gave to final fantasy.

If only the second disc was finished with a mainline FF budget. Because of this I struggle with giving It 10/10. If It was finished It would be THE greatest JRPG of the 90's *unquestionably* . As Is It's still a masterpiece , but the Incompletness Is significant enough to affect what could've been imo. Still an easy 9.3/10 for me.

Nice list Johnny. These are just a few of my 10/10 games: -Bioshock -Castlevania SOTM -Super Metroid -Dead Space -Resident Evil 2 -Persona 4 -Bloodborne

Eddie Smock countless of times and it never gets old, you can beat it too just stay at it my man you’ll do it!

I come from the Atari/Nes era when they first came out but; SNES (FFIV) was the game that made that huge impact on defining me as a gamer & what genre (RPG) I like the most. Then (Breath of Fire II) continued that feeling, years later it was Followed by Sega's (Phantasy Star IV) then (The Legend of Dragoon). All of these woke that nostalgia feelings of (FFIV).

FFIV did the same to me. I loved the characters and the story. I must have been in 6th or 7th grade when it came out. I remember bringing my SNES with me on vacation to the beach and i beat it one evening there. It had a profound impact on me. I also really enjoyed the 3d version on the DS many years later. Such a great game! I think i even like it better than 6 though i admit that objectively 6 is the better of the two.

Chrono Trigger to me is a perfect game. Especially the DS port, you get the SNES game with the anime cutscenes from the PS1 port and more space to get all the endings

Great video! Looking forward to more. Some of my 10/10s: OutRun 2006 Coast to Coast, Streets of Rage 2 (and probably 4), NY Gunblade, Mario Bros Deluxe (gba version), Animal Crossing New Horizons, Daytona USA (arcade), TMNT and Simpsons (arcade).

Thanks I really want to try dragons crown now, you convinced me lol

Dragon's Crown Pro was awesome. Really hoping there's a sequel.

The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind is a 10/10 for me. The atmosphere, the open-world, the story, the music etc...The game blew me away.

I had nearly the exact same experience with Final Fight in a little arcade in a suburb of Victoria BC called Langford. Friends and I discovered the game and spent all of our quarters to beat it day 1. Still one of my fav's of all time.

Love the Xenogears love. Just finished it for the sixth time. It's easily my favorite game of all time. Thanks for all the TIMELESS videos! :)

Bloodborne was a 10/10 for sure! Thanks for convincing me to get gud way back when.

Loved this format Do one with your games pick of the year since you started playing

I completed Tetris back in the early 90s. A few weeks later two imposing looking guys turned up at my door wanting to enlist me into the KGB. I turned them down obviously.

In random order: - Final Fantasy 7 - Final Fantasy 6 - Legend of Dragoon - Xenogears - Ys 8

Great list! GTA V, The Last of Us, Smash Bros Ultimate, Pokemon G&S, God of War 2, Donkey Kong Country, Tekken 3, Super Metroid and Mario Odyssey are also 10/10 IMO

Do you know what dude. I really really really really love your channel and content. Keep it up. Love from sunny England.

This feeling when you enter an arcade as a kid and you hear that fantastic Street Fighter II sounds and music for the first time, you see the crowd standing around the cabinet, your heart starts to race and than you see sprites so huge and colorful like never before. While playing you feel the competitive nature of the game and you are hooked forever. Nothing compares to arcades. Same goes for Final Fight. I was never a huge FPS fan, but Halo was a perfect game. Better than all the other Halos that followed. Great picks.

My favorite game ever that is the start of any list I make - The Secret of Monkey Island.
