Duke Nukem 3D
Introduced by my responsible father at the age of around 5, Duke Nukem 3D was released in 1996 and is my first memory of a game as well as the foundation of my new found love for FPS shooters. https://venturebeat.com/2020/06/16/duke-nukem-3d-20th-anniversary-edition-world-tour-comes-to-switch-on-june-23/ -
Halo: Combat Evolved
After growing up on a farm my whole life, my grandma managed to get her hands on the Original Xbox with my favourite game of all time, Halo: Combat Evolved. My brother and I sank hours of our life into this game at such a young age. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halo:_Combat_Evolved#/media/File:Halo_-_Combat_Evolved_(XBox_version_-_box_art).jpg -
The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim
After playing months worth of first person shooters, my brothers friends introduced me to a new genre, Role Playing Games. Skyrim was not only a game that introduced me to a new genre but also made me fall in love with the ability to tell stories within games as well as the ability to change and improve your very own character.

Call of Duty: Black Ops 2
I have always loved first person shooters but this game was next level when it came out. Not only was he Campaign and Zombies mode incredible, my friends and I loved this game so much that a small group of us agreed to take a week off school to participate in a multiplayer tournament by faking illnesses. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Call_of_Duty:_Black_Ops_II#/media/File:Call_of_Duty_Black_Ops_II_box_artwork.png -
Minecraft
Minecraft is one of the most popular games of all time and I can see why. Not only was this game such a simple concept but was executed incredibly well. My friends and I played this game way too much but I am ashamed to say I have never defeated the Ender Dragon even though thousands of hours have been played. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minecraft#/media/File:Minecraft_cover.png -
NBA2K 21
As I got older and got more into sports such as basketball, NBA2K was the only good basketball video game franchise that allowed us to play everyday for months with friends by playing in competitions and just overall discussing things such as the NBA.
