-
Final Fantasy XII 2006
Turned 20 this year PlayStation 2
After the Archadian Empire annexes Dalmasca, Princess Ashelia leads a resistance with Vaan and others, in an Ivalice torn by war between Archadia and Rozarria. Its gambit system influenced Dragon Age: Origins.
-
God of War III 2010
Turned 16 this year PlayStation 3
Kratos picks up right after God of War II on the PlayStation 3, with the Blades of Exile against up to 50 enemies on screen at once, and not a single loading screen along the way.
-
Metro 2033 2010
Turned 16 this year Xbox 360
Survivors of a nuclear war live in the Moscow Metro, and the silent Artyom has to save his home station from the Dark Ones. Ammunition is the currency, and a gas mask filter and a flashlight that needs charging set the pace.
